This special provides some background to certain events (and a related short side-quest) that only receive cursory mention in the game. For those playing, the events take place shortly before the third palace. It's definitely not essential viewing, but neither does it do much to spoil the game - for those who have yet to play it, it provides a brief preview of what to look forward to, and for those who have played it, you get a short "Aha!" moment when you realize how it fits in. Anyone who fits in either category will likely find some enjoyment to be had.
For those with no interest in ever playing the game itself, I would steer clear, since its main draw comes from how it relates to the game, so you're likely to get vet little out of it.

I strongly suggest watching it after you play the game. It will work like a nice addition to the game. If you watch it before playing, you'll spoiler yourself around 20% of the game ('cause characters are introduced slowly, and this anime shows 5 of them in 20 minutes).
If you view it as addition to the game, its good (with some flaws, but that's OK) - nostalgic soundtracks, voices, characters, all that.
Dont try to watch it as a standalone thing.

However, a character who wears prescription glasses with dark lenses or who wears both eyewear types should take both tags., grey eyesThis character has grey-coloured eyes., persona userno description set, studentA student or pupil is a learner, or someone who attends an educational institution.

Cats have been associated with humans for at least 9,500 years and are the most popular pet in the world.

16, female, bloodtype: B, bootsBoots are heavy-duty work shoes that are often made of leather and have thick rubber soles. They are usually found stomping on things: floors, people, etc. Generally, typical boots can be as short as angle height (ankle boots), and as long as the mid point of the lower leg (crew length boots). Boots at least longer than crew length would be half boots or higher., earringAn earring is a piece of jewellery attached to the ear via a piercing in the earlobe or another external part of the ear (except in the case of clip earrings, which clip onto the lobe). Earrings are worn by both sexes, although more common among women, and have been used by different civilizations in different times., large breastsLarge breasts are breasts a fair notch larger than average, as found in some real life adolescent girls or fully grown women. They are bigger than medium breasts and smaller than huge breasts.
Note: This tag has many anime/character entries that need to be moved to the new medium and huge breasts tags. Please add the appropriate tag and remove this one from the corresponding anime/character afterwards., pantyhosePantyhose are sheer, close-fitting legwear, covering the body from the waist to the feet., persona userno description set, school uniformA type of uniform worn in Japanese schools (called "seifuku" in Japanese), generally high school age or younger. They can vary considerably; commonly, females will wear a sailor uniform (modelled off the British Royal Navy uniforms in 1920) and males will often wear a "gakuran", which is a dark button-up uniform modelled off Prussian army uniforms. But expect to see a substantial amount of variety., thigh bootsThigh boots and over-the-knee boots are boots that either: fully cover and extend above the knees, or partly cover the knees, leaving only the thigh area exposed. Boots that rise up to, but not including, the knee, or slightly thereunder, are kneehigh boots., twintailsTwintails are type of hairstyle where the hair is gathered into two "tails" on either side of the head. Twintails may also include a pair hair buns, one bun at the base of each tail.

female, brown hairThe character has brown hair., chokerA choker is a necklace, narrow strip of cloth, ribbon, or other object that fits very closely around the neck. It is not to be confused with a collar, which, for humans and other human-like entities, is generally a collar-like accessory serving a restraint, identification, and/or display of submissiveness usage. Please see the description of the collar tag for more information on the distinction. Please also see this tag`s full description for other information on how to use it., double hairbunA double hairbun is a hairstyle sporting two off-center hairbuns, one to each side of the head. Like with a single hairbun and a ponytail, double hairbuns may be at the base of twintails. Stereotypical Chinese females are often seen wearing a cheongsam and a pair of hairbuns. The style can also be referred to as dango or odango, in reference to a type of Japanese dumpling with the same format., earringAn earring is a piece of jewellery attached to the ear via a piercing in the earlobe or another external part of the ear (except in the case of clip earrings, which clip onto the lobe). Earrings are worn by both sexes, although more common among women, and have been used by different civilizations in different times.
