HIDIVE has added the Strawberry Marshmallow OVA, offering three new episodes in the 'cute girls doing cute things' subgenre. The series, animated by Studio Daume, continues the slice-of-life adventures of Nobue Itou, her younger sister Chika, and their friends, focusing on their everyday, often whimsical, activities.
This OVA follows the original TV series and precedes Strawberry Marshmallow Encore, serving as a bridge for fans invested in the franchise. The MAL score of 7.65 from over 16,000 voters indicates a solid reception for the iyashikei (healing) anime, known for its relaxed pacing and charming character interactions.
Viewers can expect a continuation of the lighthearted, character-driven narrative that has defined the Strawberry Marshmallow franchise. The addition of an English dub provides another accessibility option for fans of the genre.
