In all honesty, this was kind of pointless to make. This special is just an episode with the first episodes of the actual series combined into one. I didn't see anything really special setting the scenes apart from the ones in the series. I may just have a problem with it because I watched after the first 2 episodes aired, but still, someone could skip the first 2 episodes if they saw this first and remember what happens; either way, you get the same information. I'll give it a 6/10 because this good to get you a little pumped for the series,but it won't hold up as well if you watch it after seeing the first 2 episodes of the series.

Special Edition, who do these guys think they are, George Lucas!? Drifters: Special Edition is an OVA that is literally just episodes 1 & 2 of the anime stitched together to make a "movie." There is literally no reason for this to exist. I'd recommend you just watch the first 2 episodes of the anime instead, and the rest of the anime for that matter because it's good. I was hoping that this might be like the numerous "compilation movies" for other anime out there, which at least have new footage? Or maybe it would be like a director's cute, showing some really graphic scenesthat couldn't make it into the TV edit? Nope, neither was true. This OVA was pointless. 5/10
