Publisher: Bandai Entertainment (USA)Format: Region 1 DVD, NTSC, Japanese Dialogue with optional English Dub and English Subtitles
Length: 2 Episodes x 30 minutes
Production Date: 2004
Currently in Print (as of writing): No
Story Outline: A direct follow up OVA to the TV series which (while not trying to spoil the TV series) has a couple of the Comet Blasters visiting the Meteor Sweepers on Shimoji island. A disaster strikes when one of the orbiting Comet Blasters stations damaged in battle is hit by debris and begins freefall to Earth. A rescue mission between the Comet Blasters and the Meteor Sweepers to save those still on board the orbiting station.
Mini Review: A fun, but not as good follow up to the rather surprising original TV series. The enemy of the original series is gone, and a number of minor plot points brought up in this two part OVA are never touched on again or resolved which is quite disappointing. Bandai seems to have no plans to release the final two OVA series of Stratos 4 (a total of 8 episodes) which is highly disappointing. This disc also comes with a short parody piece which is pretty cool. Seriously, why did Bandai delete this and the TV series? 7 out of 10.
Remaining Backlog: 19 months (it's much easier this way than listing the number of discs).
