This has been on my shelf for years and it's the sort of thing I would have enjoyed more when I was younger. In fact I absolutely loved the anime series when I saw it at a convention in the 90s. It's your basic shy loser magical girl unrequited love triangle story with some slightly risque humor. Not bad, but probably best for teens or a little older.

Fanservicey, but actually an okay story.

A little more intriguing than the first volume, but still early enough in the series to approach the rest with a grain of salt, Mix Down showed that with enough time and reflection feelings can change as much as the heroes of any tale.

However, the way this volume ends is enough to ensure readers return for the third, and most likely the fourth book in the series!

What struck me most about Masakazu Katsura's "Video Girl Ai" (other than the dated illustration style, which I admire), was how it was one of the first teen romance series I have read where a male lead seems to have the same insecurities of young love that is often a plot structure for teenage girls.

It is not a mind blowing start, but still a solid start to what could be a strong coming of age tale. For that, I look forward to reading the next book in the series, and the rest of the series to come.
