Audience Consensus
Audience consensus is mixed. While some appreciate the movie as a decent recap with enhanced audio, others find the rushed pacing and omitted scenes detrimental, especially for newcomers. It is generally not recommended for those already familiar with the anime series, but potentially enjoyable as an introduction.
Strengths
- Good recap of the first part of the anime series.
- Excellent sound design and music in the theater experience.
- Suitable for both new and returning viewers.
Weaknesses
- Pacing feels rushed due to condensed content.
- Important background scenes are cut, leading to confusion for new viewers.
- Not worth watching if you've already seen season 1.
