Loved watching the story from a different point of view. Beautifully animated, specially the second half of the last fight. I do think Haruka san was much better in this one than the sequel :blush:
I accidentally watched this one before the first one, but since I already watched all the anime series I wasn't lost here. Felt like a side story but in a good way in my opinion. Asuna gets center stage and you get to see just a bit more of the character. I Definitely love how the last fight was animated.
The only down side to the movie in my opinion was (ironically) Asuna's voice Actress. I like Haruka san, but now that she gets more of a center role I felt like sometimes she didn't know how to properly act...she was fine most of the time...but sometimes it just felt like she was just reading lines onto a mic...
lol most comments crying over the fact that it’s a JDrama when it’s listed as one of the genres…smh… I actually enjoyed this movie….not gonna lie though, it definitely blurred the lines between a normal movie and porn…but at it’s core it’s just a movie about obsessive feelings between 2 individuals and the kinds of things that happen as a result
Although CGI is garbage, it was still entertaining enough for me to watch it through to the end. Only reason it gets a 5 from me is because it made me want to rewatch the original series, which I may do after finishing the live action trilogy....hopefully the movies get better
Came into it blind as I watched no trailers prior. Was surprised to see such an interesting story and unique concept. Also the main character, miyo/muge, has such a fun, quirky personality it took some getting used to. Thought the movie was well paced. I wouldn’t watch it again, but definitely unique enough to deserve to be watched at least once.
Also, after the credits start rolling they start closing plot holes…which I personally thought was nice as I hate when movies leave a lot of things up to interpretation.
Really great movie. I'd watch it again if I didn't have a huge backlog of things to watch :sweat_smile:

To be honest the story didn’t really grab me…it felt generic with plot holes full of cliche moments…but I do like Transformers which is why it didn’t get a lower rating :)
Really enjoyable movie from beginning to end though I feel the beginning half had more oomph while they were setting up the story and viewers were seeing fighting scenes for the first time. The second half was OK and still enjoyable, but the first half was just better. Some special effects felt like they needed a bit more work for sure though

Knowledge of the franchise required? Yes
Overall an uninteresting story filled with forgettable characters…but of course, anyone familiar with the games should feel right at home since that’s exact how the games are…it’s all about the thrill of the hunt…works great for the games, but imo not so much for the movie. I expected more tbh…
Easily one of my favorite stories of all time. Read the light novel, listened to the audio book, and now I watched the movie. Now I’m just missing the manga.
This story is just too good…. Now that I finally watched it, I can also say graphically it looks amazing as well. 100% percent recommend; 10/10 :sob:
Rewatching this made me want to replay the original game out of nostalgia:relaxed:
