Having just seen MnE, I'm really not sure in which series to incorporate it.
To me, it seems like a fusion with a heavy TV bias:
Actually AIC has stated that this movies was held in the OAV timeline
despite the fact it doesn't seem to match up with the OAV timeline
completly.
I believe also that they stated Mantsu no Eve incorporates
elements of the manga and/or novels, both of which are set in the OAV
continuity. Well, loosely, at any rate.
