Am I just missing the point or is that it?

Sorry for the off topic rant, but as a figma looks nice might buy it any way.

You really didn't have to stretch it and call it high school "junk", I love action as much as the next person, but I also appreciate that "junk". I kinda noticed that I seem to be more substantially varied in what I like than most people. So you don't have to mind me.

Anyway, I really don't know what all the fuss is about either. I personally liked the BRS OVA as its own nice little story. I own the BRS figma and the Blu-ray Limited Edtion box set thing with the Nendoroid Petites, and that's about it. The overly-hyped state this "franchise" is in has be baffled. And just to answer your last question, if you're referring to the transitions between the "real world"/ "other world" thing - yeah, that's about it, there's no point to grasp or anything - just a friend who saves another dear friend with some supernatural-esque stuff mixed in.

Apparently this goes further than the actual OVA, in that some song (a very, very uninteresting song) and the awesome artwork by artist "huke" spawned all this fandom.
