Episode 1: Encounter

The OVA begins with a voice (Kira) explaining us whom are the angels... Then scenes are linked as in the 1st volume of the manga.

The story begins with Kurai and Arakune stealing Alexiel's body, whereas Katan breaks Rociel's seals by a great invocation. Then we discover Setsuna's daily life, Sara and Kira at school and outside. By returning at home after a nice afternoon, two mysterious devils launch an attack against Setsuna then run away. At that moment, physically closer, Setsuna declares his love to her sister, but this event also reveals his aura...

Then more and more non-human beings appear in Setsuna's life, beings which speak to him about a certain "Alexiel" of which he doesn't care at all! He meets in the city an weird blue-haired angel (Rociel), then still the devils in a park again... There, Kurai tells him the terrible story of the organic and inorganic twin angels.

The next day, Rociel tightens a trap to Setsuna: to kidnap Sara to attract him. Setsuna, informed by the schoolbag of his sister, runs up directly towards the store where she's held. The trap works: from the students retaining Sara appear monstrous golems who shred the poor Setsuna. Then comes Rociel to end the work... But, strangely and luckily, Adam Kadamon does an exceptional coming, removing to Rociel his powers and who's forced to run away. The devils, who saw everything, come back again to Setsuna, and Kurai, addressing to Alexiel, implores her to return among the devils.

Setsuna, healed, brings back Sara at home. Relieved having saved his most cherished love, he can't resist from kissing her, but his mother saw everything. Immediately she gets angry and Sara, who's awakening, hears everything. Setsuna runs away by realizing the wish of his mother: deny openly his love for Sara and leave her forever. What a sorrow for Sara...

Rociel, who escaped, is in anger against Katan because he intervened in his business during the Seraphita's coming. He reprimands him, then continues his eternal loving game with him... "Katan, tell me I'm beautiful"... Kira ends by noticing the fact that Setsuna is able to attract very different beings...
 

Episode 2: Awakening

Kurai, seeing that Setsuna doesn't want to listen to her stories, worries about the future of Alexiel's soul and call the three Divine Dragons. On Assiah, Mrs Mudou brings Sara to a religious school, in which she asserts not wanting to give up her incestuous love. Her mother chooses then another tactics to erase this unbearable love: to go in England. Resigned, Sara remembers her moments shared with Setsuna. She decides to go to his school to give him a farewell kiss...

But somewhere in Heaven, Rociel had thought with Katan about another means to irritate Setsuna to wake Alexiel: reveal the compromising photo of Sara and Setsuna's kiss, and take the control of Katou's body to oversee the operation... But by the Kira's saving intervention everything is going to fail: he comforts Setsuna, calming his fury.

To forget the photo's sad event, Setsuna ran to a park, and accidentally there's Rociel and Kira. Rociel, in anger because Nanatsusaya (the divine sword) was in Setsuna's ownership, beheads Kira... But Setsuna saw everything and Alexiel's soul takes the control of his body. A beautiful battle between Alexiel and Rociel follows, which finishes by Katou's death (that Rociel had cunningly provoked by being in Katou's body). When he takes back control, Setsuna notices Katou's death and sees with bewilderment Kira whole and alive. And so he runs away...

It's raining... Arakune comes to see Kira to have explanations. Kira tells him/her the reasons of his immortality: by being the soul of Nanatsusaya, he was stained with Rociel's blood during his last fight. Somewhere else in Tokyo, Setsuna, roaming, sees Kurai and makes her avoid a car... Setsuna proves by his gesture and his statements that he likes Kurai, what erases her sad mood. She falls in love...

The time comes when Sara leaves at the airport with her mother. Kurai, which is there at this moment, is called: Sara confides her Setsuna and the symbol of their love, the small ring... Kurai joins then Setsuna to tell him the "sad" news and give him the ring. Setsuna, in despair, runs up at the airport (while having disputes with the police, further to Katou's death), Sara seeing him throws herself into his arms. Then they run away...

What happens during this time in Heaven? Rociel kisses Katan... But the try fails: Katan spits the feather of his beloved master. "Why does he trust me not..."
 

Episode 3: Regeneration

Kira remembers the child whom he met and whose body he adopted. His promise was to be hated by his father so that he won't suffer too much when he'll disappear... So Kira decides to carry the responsibility of Katou's murder: to protect Setsuna and fill his promise to break the links of the real Sakuya's father. But that doesn't seem to work, his father still likes him! Sara and Setsuna live finally freely their love. Then they spend the night in the bed, what Rociel who can't bear, because it's like a "treason" from Alexiel.

In Hell, Kurai still calls the Dragons, because she gets impatient about Alexiel. And the blind dragon announces her very next awakening... And she wasn't wrong, a bit later, Katan comes to interrupt the Mudou's idyll by shorting Sara's life. Consequences are heavy: Katan is seriously injuried, but especially Setsuna warms up and Alexiel finally wakes up. It's the scheduled destruction of Tokyo. Kurai comes on the scene and is the witness of the disaster, Mr Kira dies before Kira's tearing eyes.

And this is so horrible that Setsuna contains himself and dreams... Sara is her girlfriend, he has loads of friends... But this is only a dream... Kira brings him back to the reality by calling and calling him again. And Setsuna comes back, Sara in arms. Rociel, which approached the scene, provokes openly Alexiel. She answers violently by brandishing Nanatsusaya, which amazes and makes Rociel leave.

Later the unfortunate group moves on a more friendly building. Adam Kadamon appears then again and he's about to execute a (second) miracle: go up time until just before the destruction of Tokyo, and freeze it. But not resuscitate Sara... No, her death is too important for the come back of long-awaited Alexiel. The poor Setsuna, in order to realize his wish to live with her, will have to find her soul in Hades, after having received the divine dagger in his heart.

... Metatron had a nightmare... "Sevy!!" But Sevoth-tarte doesn't move...
