Synopsis

Recap of the Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio: Ars Nova TV series, with approximately 40 minutes of new material.

By 2039, global warming had caused sea levels to rise and large amount of territory to be lost. As though in response, a mysterious group of warships clad in mist, "the Fleet of Mist," appeared in every corner of the ocean, and began attacking human ships. In spite of humanity mustering all their strength, they were utterly defeated by the Mist's overwhelming force. All of humanity's trade routes were blockaded by the Fleet of Mist, their political economy was destroyed, and the human race was steadily beaten down. Seven years later, the Fleet of Mist's submarine I-401 appears before cadet Gunzo Chihaya. The humanoid life form that pilots the sub, who should be their enemy, is instead offering her services to mankind.

Firstly, if you are new to the Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio series, I recommend that you watch "Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio: Ars Nova" prior to watching this movie. It is not required viewing material in order to enjoy this movie, but it definitely helps with viewer comprehension and world building, which this movie is seriously lacking.

Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio: Ars Nova DC is a summary of the ARS Nova animated television series. The reason I recommend watching the series first is because, as a stand-alone movie, the story is under-developed. Many of the interactions, why read more

I found out there was an other movie that takes place after the series.
so i decided to watch this recap.

This movie isn`t for anyone who hasn`t seen the serie, it won`t make any sense.
Watch it as an recap, if you decide to watch the new film , "Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio: Ars Nova Cadenza"

The good thing about this movie is that is has an extra 45 min at the end.

This movie is for those who have watched the series, and need to refresh their memories.

You also get to see new ships, which i realy liked, if you liked kongou you will like the new girls

Arpeggio of Blue Steel was a really good show, both techically and narratively, so watching this movie seemed like an easy choice for me. So, does this movie match the greatness of the TV show? Well, let's hop on and find out, shall we?

Warning! Spoiler alert!

Story
The first half of the movie is basically a retelling of the first season and it's not until the second half that the movie tells a whole new story. I have to say, watching a smaller version of the story seen in the TV show felt like a chore more than anything. There's no dramatic tension because I already know read more
