Hertz Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Story: 10This is one of the most original stories ever produced. When you view the trailers for this movie, you might think that it's an ordinary, wacky, body-switching film. I've seen enough Hollywood movies with the same trope, but this movie takes it to a whole different level. Emotionally, it's like a Jenga game. It starts of ordinarily, then extra-ordinarily. It builds, and builds, giving you different kinds of emotion as the story progresses, until you reach the "What the hell?!!" scenes, then you start scratching your head while still feeling the emotions built upon as you reach the cusp of a more raw feeling. Then your brain starts to kick in and try to figure it out along with the characters. If I were to describe this film in terms of Hollywood movies, it's a combination of "The Lake house", "Sleepless in Seattle" and "Source Code" (without the violence) or "The Butterfly Effect" (but better). Art: 10 The Art is fantastic. When Hayao Miyazaki retired, I thought I'd seen the last of the most beautiful Anime sceneries and characters, but this film proved me wrong. It made me so happy to see such lush, wonderful artwork. The combination of hand-drawn cell animation and 3D renderings gives this movie a depth that you can only find in a Studio Ghibli film. The characters were drawn in such a more realistic way, that you can be taken out of the film in the context that it is an anime. I often find so much humanity in the facial expressions that the characters show. Sound: 10 RADWIMPS provided such wonderful, contemporary J-Pop soundtrack, that you immediately feel the tone for the movie. It's frenetic, and full of emotions, hitting just the right chord (no pun intended). I have a strong appreciation for J-Pop, as it relates to anime, and the music in this movie, gives an automatic identity and character to the anime. It identifies itself to the movie the same way that "Tank!" by the Seatbelts is so readily associated with Cowboy Bebop, or "Sobakasu" by Judy and Mary for Rurouni Kenshin's first season. Character: 10 The characters were lovely. Taki and Mitsuha were depicted so naturally. If I were a teenaged boy in that same situation, I would've done the same thing. They were embarrassed during awkward situations and you can see it in their faces as well as the tone and timbre in the voices of the voice actors. I watched the Japanese dub and the way that the voice performances were delivered were superb. Both the main leads were extremely likable. You automatically empathize with the situation that they find themselves in. And when they discover the things that they discover, their reactions were so genuine and heart-breaking that you'll get carried away. The supporting characters were there for plot advancement, but they nonetheless likable. I really enjoy films and animes wherein there are no annoying characters. A villain can be a villain without them being annoying, and luckily, there are no annoying characters, nor villains in this anime film. Enjoyment: 10 Enjoyment is guaranteed when you watch this film. The plot and twist alone will make any anime fan or even a sci-fi fan happy. The heart-warming scenes between the main leads will also provide romance fans a little bit of entertainment. And the last lines that the characters said as the scene panned, it gave me goosebumps. Overall: 10 If it wasn't evident, I really enjoyed this film and will readily recommend this to any movie lover. If you're as conscientious as I am regarding the story thread and causality of events, you will enjoy this film even more. It's not just an enjoyable and highly well-produced anime, it's an extremely well-produced movie, period. Re-watch value is high since this is not an extremely heavy story that will drain you emotionally. Further screenings will actually give you more clues and tidbits that you did not notice before. Comparing this movie to a Studio Ghibli film is a disservice to the animators and the director, as they stamp their own identity in the story. A fantastic combination of humor, drama and romance, the pay-off at the end will probably leave you with a lump in your throat or tears in your eyes. Some movies are just eye-candy. This film is simply CANDY. It's that good. The HYPE was real.... It really hit me....... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratchetdude231 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 @Dragon-Archon Sorry for the late replay. For now it's looking like the Boruto anime is going to be anime original for a while. I didn't keep up with Shippuden simply because of the filler, but it appears that the Boruto anime takes place even before the Boruto movie. The Boruto manga has been recapping the events of the movie up until recently and with Naruto Gaiden, not being part of Naruto Shippuden it's probably fair to assume it will part of the Boruto anime. Here is the order I suspect the first couple arcs in the Boruto anime to go. Anime original arc to introduce characters, character motives etc Naruto Gaiden arc Boruto Naruto the Movie recap Start adapting the manga The Boruto Naruto the Movie recap just ended in the Boruto manga and the first major arc in the Boruto manga has started. I suspect that by the time the anime is done recapping the movie there will be plenty of canon material to animate. As much as I enjoyed the first episode of Boruto I'm surprised the Boruto anime came this soon considering the Boruto manga has only been around for a year and it has been mostly recap of the movie. The other theory I see floating around is that Boruto will very much be similar to Dragon Ball Super where the anime is actually ahead of the manga, and the manga is constantly behind which could also be a possibility. Either way it should be interesting to see where things go in the anime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Arizona Ranger Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 (edited) Fate/Zero (Episodes 20-25) (END) Final Score: 9.5/10 Recommend? Absolutely. Thoughts: What a wonderful anime this turned out being as I progressed through the story. It had good fights, some dark moments, a great cast of characters, an enjoyable story, some big twists and turns, and I was mildly saddened to reach the end of the adventure as the end credits for Episode 25 rolled for the final time. I am really excited to move on to Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works (which I plan to start by this next Friday, due to me taking a short break so I can focus on what will be quite a busy week for me at the TV station) and look forward to the three Fate/stay night: Heaven's Feel movies that are due for release later this year. I understand now why this anime series received such high praise/accolades, and I am proud to say that that Fate/Zero has planted itself towards the top of my favorite anime series that I have had the pleasure of watching/experiencing in my life. I am still disappointed with myself that it took me so long to watch this anime. It (along with the original Fate/stay night and Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works) has been sitting on my to-watch list ever since the series launched all of those years ago, and I almost feel ashamed that it took me purchasing Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star to finally set the gears in motion to where I would finally make the effort to watch this series. I should have watched these series years ago.... Edited April 10, 2017 by MossyOakRcn42 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon Castle Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Oreimo II Episode 5-16 Instead of a Synopsis I just use Kyousuke`s last line from Episode 16 Quote It`s a long story, but please listen. Listen to the tale of an unbelievable secret between my sister and me. Listen to all the crazy messes I`ve been though. Listen to the tale of a bratty little sister, and her average brother. A slightly special tale of love between two average siblings that started with a request for advice. If it makes you smile at least once, I`ll be happy. this anime did make me smile more than once like this moment: Spoiler I found it funny how Kyousuke replied to Kanako`s questions about the game: Spoiler Is funny how Kyousuke tried to take a peek at Ayase in the shower just then his doorbell ring: Spoiler Quote That`s not a rich girl`s line, that`s Lord Frieza`s. : Spoiler : Spoiler Then I start playing Oreimo HD, I will try to go for Ayase`s route first.

I finished the game last week, liked it, so decided to watch the anime. Some changes, but that was expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
