The West Wing: The Complete Series Collection

The first episode dragged intolerably, with most of the episode taken up with Pastel introducing the characters via internal monologue. Get ON with it already! Speaking of which, the characters are just ridiculous. It didn't really bug me in the OVA (probably because the whole thing was a parody and made no pretensions to seriousness), but the choices of party members are questionable to say the least. Pastel is supposedly the Bard (she writes about their adventures) and Navigator, but she herself admits that she has no sense of direction. Pretty much all she does is wander around in a very short skirt and emanate that "I'll do my best!" genki-ness typical of anime heroines.
During their Golden Week training camp, the members of the Juken Club—Souichiro, Aya, Maya, Bob and Takayanagi—take some time off at the local bowling alley. Things turn sour, however, when Todo Academy's Executive Council rounds up 70 or 80 thugs to take them out. Soon the five of them are split up and each fighting their own deadly battles: Bob and Takayanagi against the minions, impetuous Souichiro against pro wrestling maniac Saga the Mask, nervous Aya against a self-proclaimed samurai, and skillful Maya against Executive Council vice-president Isuzu. Each of them will be tested to their limits, but the battle has just begun, as the Executive Council's leader is on his way to the scene.
