Ya know, if they make an OAV3 (technically ALTERNATIVE WORLD is not a continuation of OAV, just an alternate future to the OAV on TV, so to speak)
I wonder if Makoto will still love Ifurita. Even if he gets her back maybe something will happen to change his mind about her. Possibly he will 'REALIZE' he doesn't really love her but just feels compassion for her, or maybe more of her emotions will emerge and she will give him up because she doesn't feel as though she deserves him. If something does cause him to give her up, can you all imagine the chaos of fans wondering the big question that will remain........
So then, Shayla or Nanami? Personally I'd love to see him with Shayla, but the more enjoyable part will be seeing Shayla and Nanami rip each other to ribbons to 'obtain' him.
This is all speculation of course. I mean, come on, look how long we have all had to wait for Tenchi Muyo OAV 3 to get made? It just started getting in the process about...what...a year ago? If they haven't started on El-Hazard Magnificent World OAV 3 yet....then when and if they do, think 'bout how long it'll take? I can wait, but I hope not TOO long. Of course, I'll still buy it if I'm 70 years old.

Hmmm......what if Makoto became a vampire?

If you look at the bottom of this page, there are extra credits after the Alternative World. My theory / opinion / feeling is, Alt World is less canonical than OVA2, or even the Wanderers, because AIC apparently farmed at least some of it out.
And I may be shot for saying this, but an El-Hazard continuation is actually second on my wish-list. The world needs a proper Oh My Goddess! TV series first.
