| I think this was a very good and enjoyable movie. I really liked the interactions between the girls. All that drama made this so interesting. The animation and performances were also nice. :) It seems I'm the only one who liked this movie, but oh well. |

| This is easily SANZIGEN's worst work in the Bandori franchise so far. It's very obvious that this movie is made with the game audience in mind, assuming they've already read all the relevant stories (i.e. Band Stories 1 and 2, plus a few all-Roselia stories in-between) and that there's therefore no need to show any of the smaller moments that make the developments in those two stories work. By just speedrunning the two band stories here, Sayo's development makes absolutely no sense and Yukina comes off as even more of an unlikeable asshole than she does in the game when there's all those in-between moments that showcase both her development and her better side. In other words, the story doesn't flow in any way and the dramatic beats end up feeling unearned because they gloss over the smaller moments that make it all work. On top of that, the animation feels pretty flat and lifeless compared to what SANZIGEN have previously shown they can do with this series, and there's barely any significant concert scenes either to give them a chance to cut loose (that also means we barely get any of Roselia's excellent music, which is such a big factor in why they're popular enough for this movie to exist to begin with). Granted, Roselia's stories in-game are already my least-favourite of the main 5 bands (we haven't had much in-game Morfonica or RAS to fairly judge against yet), but even with my low expectations going into this I still came out disappointed at the end. 6/10 may seem generous after that rant, but it's not a 5/10 movie. It still has value if you've played the game and can fill in the gaps yourself, but that does also make the issues apparent. |
| Really like this Yukina and Lisa relationship, new song and also future Fest, hmmm seem interesting |

Agree with everything you said here. Also, the choice to speedrun the band stories means the movie lacks a normal structure. We aren't really building to a climax, since Neo-Aspect happens around the hour mark and then they jump into another story. Even as a fan of the game this movie gave me whiplash in how fast it covered events and how much was skipped. If you are gonna adapt a band story into an anime, just do one really well versus throwing in all these disparate pieces. |
| yea it was pretty rushed. i was excited since this movie was so hyped up despite me not liking roselia at all. (i love their music just not the band themself) but i found myself scrolling on my phone multiple times. it was rushed, boring and kinda cringe. im being generous giving it a 6 because im biased towards their music but..wow. hoping the second movie is at least a bit better |
| That is really nice. |
| I've been waiting for this like 5 months and it's finally here... |
| I'm somewhat disappointed. Sure, Roselia was never my favorite band in bandori but they rushed through a whole lot of content, cut out some stuff altogether and none of the beats really hit. I will say though that the CGI ain't the worst they've done, in fact it looked quite good. |

| Goddamn, Yukina is cute....but hearing her A cappella at the end made me realize...she absolutely sucks at singing. It was like listening to a bad American Idol audition. Tone deaf and all over the place. Where does she get that confidence? Oh, it's her looks. |
