Ok I havent read manga. Got introduced to the "Ghost" through the first animated movie and then faithfully followed animated and live action from that moment on. So I cannot say this OVA was not fun to watch. But the sexualization of Motoki and fan servicing never stand fine with me... From that point of view I was disappointed... It is sad to see that if nowadays strong women and bisexualgay women are not killed off and done with, than their new destiny is to be turned into a fan service content... While male character is always respected, women are stil degraded immensely!
