The World's Greatest First Love: Proposal Edition (世界一初恋~プロポーズ編~, Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi: Puropoozu Hen) is an anime OVA that was released in select theaters on February 21, 2020.

Synopsis[]

The Case of Ritsu Onodera[]

The OVA opens with the Emerald department having been invited to the after party of a wedding between employees from Marukawa’s production and sales departments. In the rush caused by a call for a toast for the groom, a woman is knocked into Masamune Takano, dropping her glass in the process. Some of the broken glass pricks his ring finger, and Takano is bleeding. Ritsu Onodera follows Takano to the bathroom, and offers him a band-aid. Takano requests him to wrap it for him, and Ritsu begrudgingly complies. He then asks for another, and wraps it around Ritsu’s own ring finger. Takano tells Ritsu to leave his ring finger reserved for him.

After the other three couples' stories play out, there's an OVA-original scene on a later date at Marukawa. Shouta Kisa asks if there's something wrong with Ritsu's hand, as he's still wearing the band-aid Takano put on him at the wedding. Ritsu insists that it's nothing, and gets embarrassed when he catches Takano smiling at him across the room from his work desk, his own band-aid still on his ring finger.

The Case of Yoshiyuki Hatori[]

In “The Case of Yoshiyuki Hatori,” Yoshiyuki Hatori has just returned from the wedding from the previous segment of the OVA. Chiaki Yoshino tells him about how he had just been to his parents’ house, and how he was getting asked about whether or not he’d be getting married any time soon. Chiaki insisted to his mother that he’d get married to Hatori, and by the end of their conversation she’s telling him to go get his checkbook for a dowry. Hatori is stressed about how lightly Chiaki brought up the idea of marrying him to his parents, and goes to leave Chiaki’s apartment. Before he can get out though, Chiaki calls out to him saying he wouldn’t mind that things ended up like that, referring to them getting married.

The Case of Shouta Kisa[]

In “The Case of Shouta Kisa,” Shouta Kisa has also just returned from the wedding that occurred in the first segment of the OVA. He and Kou Yukina have a conversation about what Kisa had been doing as work for the day and end up in the bath together by the end of it. At the mention of formal wear, Kisa imagines Yukina in a suit and begs him to never wear one out of concern of how sparkly he’d be.

The Case of Takafumi Yokozawa[]

In “The Case of Takafumi Yokozawa,” Takafumi Yokozawa and Zen Kirishima are walking to their respective homes from the wedding, as they had both been in attendance. They begin to talk about how Hiyori Kirishima is going to grow up and one day likely get married herself, and how the idea is stressing Kirishima out. Kirishima is worried about being alone one day, but Yokozawa says that he “do him the service of not letting him die alone.” Kirishima twists it to mean that they’ll be together until the day they die, and Yokozawa doesn’t fully seem to mind.
