"Glasses Girlfriend" is an OVA released on November 25, 2010, written by TOBI, directed by Koji Ito, and produced by AIC. This work is a one-shot story with the theme of glasses, depicting the charm of glasses and the charm of women who wear them. Below, we will introduce a detailed review and recommendation of this work.

story

The story of "Megane na Kanojo" begins when the protagonist, a high school boy, meets a beautiful girl who wears glasses. She is a "girl with glasses" and a classmate who is usually quiet, but when she takes her glasses off, she shows a proactive and attractive side of herself, like a completely different person. The protagonist is attracted to her two-sided nature, and as they gradually become closer, he begins to understand the special meaning that glasses have.

Although each story is self-contained, it depicts the depth of human relationships and self-understanding through a small item like glasses. In particular, the changes in the characters when they put on and take off the glasses are beautifully depicted, and you can feel the inner changes as well as the visual impact.

character

The protagonist is a normal high school boy who is attracted to a girl with glasses. The story progresses from his perspective, allowing the viewer to share his feelings and growth. The character of the girl with glasses is contrasted between her modest appearance when she wears her glasses and her assertive appearance when she takes them off, enhancing her charm.

Other classmates and friends also appear and play a supporting role in the relationship between the protagonist and the girl with glasses. Each character's personality is well-drawn, adding depth to the story.

Visuals and Music

The visuals in "Glasses Girlfriend" are of AIC's high quality. You can see the detailed depictions, such as the world seen through the lenses of the glasses and the change in facial expression when the glasses are removed. The colors and backgrounds are also beautiful, making it visually appealing.

Music is also an important element in enhancing the atmosphere of the work. BGM and sound effects are used skillfully to express the dual nature of the glasses girl, enhancing the viewer's emotions. In particular, the change in music during the scene where she takes off her glasses has the effect of emphasizing the transformation of the character.

Directed and produced

Director Koji Ito has made the most of the theme of glasses in his direction. The charm of glasses as seen from his point of view is conveyed to the audience. AIC's production skills are also impressive, with the overall quality being high, including the depiction of character movements and backgrounds.

"Glasses Girlfriend" is a work that I would especially recommend to those who like glasses. You can fully enjoy the charm of glasses and the charm of characters who wear glasses. In addition, it is a one-shot story, which is rare for a work with a glasses theme, and it is also attractive that you can get satisfaction in a short amount of time.
