Kodomo no Jikan.. sorting it all out

(1/1)

kenshin-dono:
ok, i tried to figure this out on my own but im really not sure if i have it right. Its very confusing. I tried searching here too, but the only forum posts i found were for a few of the OVA's and some stuff in the uploaders forum. I was sorting some of my older files and saw this series. I figure I might as well give it a look finally. I could use a light hearted ecchi comedy. The problem is with the OVA's. Sorting out whats what is a pain in the ass.

Theres the first season which is pretty self explanatory. 12 episodes, just called Kodomo no Jikan.
However, once you get to the OVA's it gets confusing fast. The 2nd season Kodomo no Jikan: Ni Gakki is listed on both ADB and myanimelist as 3 OVA's
1 4th Graders   
2 Fun Athletic Meet
3 Green Cherry Tree

however.. here on bakabt there are 4 episodes listed. I asked a long time ago wtf ep 00 was but no one ever replied. I dont get what that episode 0 listed there is, which is where the confusion starts

after that it gets a bit worse
The Kodomo no Jikan OVA's are listed differently. On ADB its shown as 4 OVA's
1  What You Gave Me      
2  Rin`s Classroom Diary (Special Compilation)    
3  Shiro-chan, Kuro-chan    
4  A Child`s Summer Time

however myanimelist only lists it as 3 OVA's
Episode 01: What You Gave Me (Anata ga Watashi ni Kureta Mono)
Episode 02: Kuro-chan, Shiro-chan (Kuro-chan to Shiro-chan)
Episode 03: A Child's Summer Time (Kodomo no Natsu Jikan)

one of the OVA's seems to be listed seperatly on myanimelist as 'Kodomo no Jikan Recap' From reading it it sounds like its the 'Rin's Classroom Diary' OVA listed on ADB, is that right?

I cant seem to find the Shiro-chan, Kuro chan OVA in my file list, or here on Bakabt. Here is the search result for Kodomo no Jikan  on Bakabt

So how the hell does it all break down? I want all of the later OVA's. Just for refrence the following is the list of the files/names i  have on my HD:
------------------------------------------------
Kodomo no Jikan folder has:
Kodomo no Jikan 1-12 DVD rips from lolipop subs Seems to be the same as the one here on BBT
it also has 2 OVA's, which i belive are the first 2 according to ADB:
[Genjo] Kodomo no Jikan OVA what you gave me
[Doutei] Kodomo no Jikan - Rin's Classroom Diary - ver.2 (DVD x264 704x396 24fps AC3)

then theres another folder labled
Kodomo no Jikan 2nd term and it has these files:
[Underwater] Kodomo no Jikan 2nd Term - 01 [ED788AC6]
[Jisatsu-Underwater] Kodomo no Jikan 2nd Term - 02 [9CB83832]
[SFW]_Kodomo_no_Jikan_2n d_Term_-_03_[DVD][12482517]
----------------------------------------------
so that should be all of 2nd term right? though the groups seem to be an odd mix

It seems i am missing the 3'rd and 4'th OVA's listed on ADB (or the 2nd and 3rd OVA's according to Myanimelist):
3  Shiro-chan, Kuro-chan   
4  A Child`s Summer Time

but i cant really find them here on Bakabt. I think that a childs summer time is this on bakabt but i could be wrong. I can not find Shiro-chan, Kuro-chan anywhere. Does anyone know what the hell the episode 00 thing from 2nd term is here on BBT?

so basiclly the thing in question is how the OVA's break down. It seems it can be listed as either 4 OVA's together:
1  What You Gave Me     
2  Rin`s Classroom Diary (Special Compilation)   
3  Shiro-chan, Kuro-chan   
4  A Child`s Summer Time

or as 3 with Rin's Classroom diary as something totally seperate for some reason (not sure why that is )
1  What You Gave Me     
2  Shiro-chan, Kuro-chan   
3 A Child`s Summer Time

 How is that supposed to work out, does anyone know? Any way you look at it though, BBT seems to be missing the 3rd/4th OVA, Shiro-chan, Kuro-chan, and possibly A Child`s Summer Time (though that may be the one i linked above). Anyone know why it isn't here? Hopefully someone knows how that all breaks down so i can either d.load the missing files from here, or look online for them

BTW, side question, should i get a different group for 2nd term? It seems i had a weird mish-mash of groups there. I have never heard of barkyseal, dunno if theyre any good. I value translation over video quality a lot of the times. Unless one version looks much worse, i just want the group with a better translation. That doesn't seem to be the policy here on BBT a lot of the time so im not sure if barkyseals worth a look.

TL;DR version: for those who dont want to look at all the file names i listed, the TL:DR version is;  how the hell do the OVA's for this show break down and where are the 3rd and 4th OVAs (Shiro-chan, Kuro-chan, and A Child`s Summer Time)here on BBT. Also what the is episode 00 in the 2nd term torrent here

craselios:
Dammit

you can see the synonyms name and airing time, they may help:

Kodomo no Jikan (TV):
syno: Nymphet, A Child's Time, Kojika

Kodomo no Jikan OVA:

so due to this airing times i think that's how it is:

This is the TV

This is the recap

this is the 1st episode of the 1st ova

this is the 2nd episode of the 1st Ova + Ni Gakki ova

this is the last episode of the 1st ova

tyciol:
Having watched them all this is what I believe the order is:

1. pre-S1 OVA: http://bakabt.me/130682-kodomo-no-jikan-anata-ga-watashi-ni-kureta-mono.html was first, though chronologically the events take place somewhere during S1.
2. S1 tv series: http://bakabt.me/140470-kodomo-no-jikan-loli-pop-subs.html
3. S1 summary: http://bakabt.me/146413-kodomo-no-jikan-ova-2-doutei.html was released as a sorta recap prior to S2
4. S2 ova series: http://bakabt.me/150728-kodomo-no-jikan-ni-gakki-h264-barkyseal.html
5. S2 summer sequel ova: http://bakabt.me/157468-kodomo-no-jikan-kodomo-no-natsu-jikan-doutei.html

One thing I'm not sure is in this list is the 'Kuro-chan and Shiro-chan' special. It was very charming and involves a panda bear suit. That might possibly be included in the S2 OVA batch.

Also: http://bakabt.me/147662-kodomo-no-jikan-a-forbidden-time.html appears to share the title but is an unrelated anime series. I'll probably watch it, but besides the tile I don't see anything in common.
