Rate a 6 English Subtitled How many times have you out with old and in with the new? For me countless times. While a future will exist no matter what we do why doesn't always have to be so futuristic. I often what at time how many people like myself exist. Who care wholeheartedly about the past in some retrospects. Sure certain advancements can be made like computers but in the end is it really worth it? I have heard entire buildings torn down over a single design flaw. Or restaurants close over not meeting a new code. Is the future meant to help us or hurtus.
That is why i enjoyed this anime. The name they went is a perfect depiction of those feelings of love of the old and dislike by others. While the building is fictitious along with all other elements the amount of passion this main character feels towards keeping the structure alive is amazing. So, amazing that i felt the same feelings burn with in me.
Sure one could create a nice clean cut show or spend a lot of money but if you can have a show make an emotional connection to the viewer that is a show worth watching.
Unfortunately some drawbacks here are the show was short. Also, the show missed out the chance to provide some background for the other characters. Although, if you got the special edition you were greeted with additional 10 minutes of interview with key staff members during an interview of the creation of the show. From what they enjoyed and their own feelings that went into making the show.

A lighthearted, but sometimes serious, straightforward OVA with a simple plot and nice character designs, but too short to leave much of an impact on the viewer. As is often the case in anime, Antique Heart centers on the activities of a school club, namely the "Academy Handymen," a group of 3 high school boys with vibrantly-colored hair who take on any job, no matter how big or how small, on campus. An old building on the school grounds is scheduled to be demolished, and the boys are hired to clean it out beforehand. They discover that a group of spirits led by a fairy namedSaki is living in, and essentially tied to, the building. This is where the OVA gets its title -- the fairies are the "heart" of the "antique" building. If the building gets demolished, they disappear. The club members decide to start a petition to prevent the building's demolition, and the story continues to unfold from there. There is a nice 10-minute interview between the director and the mangaka afterwards, where we also see some behind the scenes with the voice actors, etc.
The animation wasn't that great, but serviceable. The designs for the main characters in particular were nice, though most of the other characters looked rather generic. The music is OK, but not memorable. Voices aren't bad, but there are some awkward pauses in conversations sometimes. As I said, the plot was straightforward, and wrapped up cleanly enough, but the runtime was so short that a lot of the development felt rushed. Not to mention that we don't get to learn much of anything about the main characters' background, personalities, etc. This feels like the pilot to a TV series that never got greenlit.
A decent watch, but don't expect anything profound out of it. One plus is that there is no fanservice and not much that could be considered violence, so I would consider this one family-friendly.
