A 9-year-old kid walks into a dying world and becomes the only thing standing between gods and extinction. The OVA strips away the mecha bloat and burns straight through to what made the original series matter: a child's unshakeable belief that friendship is a weapon stronger than any magic. Nobody can find this anymore, which is exactly why it matters, three episodes that finish a story without wasting a frame, where every bond Wataru forged in the previous series gets tested against actual annihilation.
Wataru Ikusabe is a nine-year-old boy who is carried by magic into Sokaizan, a magical land that belongs to the gods. He has been brought there to save it. Along the way he meets many of the people who live in Sokaizan, and the friendships he makes with them grow very strong. The story is told as a three-episode fantasy OVA from 1993.
