Lina and Naga's chemistry is bulletproof enough to carry three standalone stories that don't need to go anywhere. The OVA trades the franchise's usual stakes for pure riffing: a mirror episode that doubles Naga into chaos, a noble family's embarrassing son, a chimera scheme that never gets serious. Animation and voice work stay sharp throughout, which means even when the plots forget themselves, the banter and visual gags stay locked in.

Lina Inverse and Naga the Serpent take on three self-contained half-hour stories, chasing quick cash, a meal or simply their own survival. In the first, they face a deranged magician who wants to use Lina to build a fearsome, spell-casting chimera. Next, an overprotective mother hires them to turn her son, a young man who can barely hold a sword, into a knight fit for the Royal Guard, which means 'helping' him drive off the soldiers raiding the area. Finally, they race to catch a rogue sorcerer for the bounty on his head, but his ancient mirror can create loyal, reversed copies of anyone, including his enemies. Expect a comedic fantasy adventure full of magic and mischief.
