Glass no Hana to Kowasu Sekai

Dual and Dorothy, faithful computer antivirus programs, monitor and constantly scan for corruptions in the simulated worlds of the Box of Wisdom. Whenever a virus is detected, it—and in many cases the entire world as well—is forcibly purged. This routine occurs every day without change, until the deletion of a particularly large virus cluster reveals an unknown program—calling herself Remo—with no memory of her function. She offers a fresh perspective into the monotony of Dual and Dorothy's lives as her influence causes the two programs to realize that there is more to life than just their mission.

No longer spending their time only watching over the worlds, the three girls start truly experiencing them. As they explore digitally recreated cities and landscapes, Dual and Dorothy develop a special appreciation for what they have, all while searching for clues regarding Remo's forgotten purpose.

Well, this is one way to learn what goes on in my laptop whenever there are viruses :D
On a more serious note, in terms of art the anime is simply wonderful. The beautiful art style will surely enhance your experience from the story. I didn’t understand some aspects of the anime completely, but I did get the general idea. I cried at one point, that’s how much the anime touched me. The idea behind the anime is very nice and original, the art is gorgeous to say the least, the characters are pleasant to watch, the background music is great throughout the whole thing, ... and the anime manages to create a very detailed and captivating world, which I am certain anyone can enjoy. It isn't the best anime movie out there, but it was worth the watch.

Mixed Feelings

I watched the movie 'Glass no Hana to Kowasu Sekai'. Here are my thoughts:

Positive aspects:
>novel premise
>tons of cute outfits!!
>decent animation and cinematography
>nice backgrounds, pretty solid visually overall
>cute characters
>good audio production quality
>cute!!!!
...
Negative aspects:
>rushed and kind of incoherent plot
>bland characters (this is partially why I rarely watch anime movies, also this point can't really be avoided with such a short runtime)
>weak direction
>felt sort of 'unpolished' overall

Overall 6/10.
I still watched the whole thing and it was enjoyable. If you're the kind of person who values style over substance then I guess I'd recommend it.

also this was pretty lewd at times, should probably have an ecchi tag FYI

It's Madoka Magika if that show was even worse, dumbed down even further and made completely devoid of depth, just a bunch of meaningless imagery as a pointless backdrop to sci-fi bs action in meaningless cyber space.
The plot is exactly the generic series of nonsense slop you and every character involved assumed would happen from the start.
Luckily there's plenty of Cringe Girls Doing Cringe Things for them to montage at you SoL enjoyers. Vapid action sequences crammed in along with vapid SoL sequences, perfection, now that's a movie, finally a series of colors going by that you can clap to without feeling like you don't ... understand what they mean.

The antagonist was an ai god with absolute control over the entirety of their existence, thus everything that happens is pointless bs nonsense for no reason while the writers pretend like it's totally not, it's totally not just a series of random pointless bs so the movie can happen, the end.

1/10 (where 5/10 is average)
