The Infinite Stratos franchise adds a new OVA, Infinite Stratos Encore: A Sextet Yearning for Love, now streaming on HIDIVE with English dub and subtitle options. This single-episode installment delves deeper into the harem dynamics surrounding protagonist Ichika Orimura, as multiple female characters vie for his attention during a summer vacation.
Produced by Sony Music Communications and adapted from the manga, the OVA continues the series' signature blend of sci-fi action and romantic comedy. While the main TV series has garnered a MAL score of 7.29, this OVA offers a self-contained comedic scenario for fans already invested in the world of Infinite Stratos.
The premise sees Charlotte's plans for alone time with Ichika disrupted by Cecilia, followed by Houki, Lingyin, and Laura, leading to a chaotic summer festival. It's a compact, fan-service heavy addition for those following the ongoing saga of Ichika and his harem of highly capable female pilots.
