The cottage trip strips away the island's gothic weight and lets you see what Kohei and Erika actually are to each other when there's no secret hanging between them. Romance anime spend episodes circling around a confession; this one understands that the real story starts after. A show that earned the right to be quiet about it.

Kohei and his friends leave the school festival behind, trading the island campus for a quiet cottage getaway in the countryside. With the festival a success, Kohei, the rest of the student council and their friends set off on a celebratory trip and settle into a rented hut beside a lovely lake, where they can finally rest after all their hard work. The break is anything but calm for Kohei, who once again ends up the focus of far more female attention than he can handle. This single OVA episode mixes comedy, romance and fantasy, and it came packaged with the sixth volume of the manga adaptation.
