Expecting this movie to never be subbed, I was ready to give up when out of nowhere a group released fansubs for it! In a state of shock I downloaded the movie and watched it, having only a vague idea of what it even was. I had originally found out about this show after witnessing some impressive clips on animation while browsing random things on sakugabooru, and I decided to watch it because of them, I was not disappointed.

So, what even is this movie then? well it's a fantasy adventure story on the surface, where five girls are transported to a doomed fantasy land and ... must save it from it’s fate with magical powers. But it’s also an effective coming of age story where they learn how to manage things in their lives not going exactly as they wished.

Also it’s a dancing show with cgi idol-like dance sequences, but don’t let that turn you off! Toei animation, masters of being the cheapest studio who can barely animate anything when they put it on TV are a totally different beast in their film department, especially their cgi teams. Pulling out all the stops, they deliver some of the best looking, cleanest 2d AND 3d animation here I’ve seen in a while.

I don't have a lot to say about this movie, it’s cute, it’s fun, it’s a treat on the eyes. The story is a bit basic at time but what can you do it’s just a kids show. Don’t go in expecting a deep masterpiece and you get a fun magical girl/idolish thing (no actual idols) that didn’t bore me once in it’s hour and a half runtime.

Also there was a sequel hook at the end please deliver Toei.

I really like this story, u know what, hey, I will also graduate from my college around the end of this month,,, Hahahahaha almost as same situation as this story. I can empathize with the problem of the story so so so much. I feel like hahhh am I ready to leave this college? I think I've made various worst things during my study and IDK how to solve my issues. Somehow, this anime appeared in my feeds and somehow, I felt whoah so interesting, and yeah, here I am :"DDD. To be honest, my first impression was kinda hah the voice actor doesn't suit ... of being young schooler, BUT HEY, in the middle and last scene of the anime, you will find out the reason ;D I just wanna say this anime really helped me solved my issue that I mentioned earlier. I learned many life lessons hahaha, just be honest with myself, though only a little bit? it's really fine, developing self-love, bravery, and don't forget to have fun. Last and not least, I wasn't competing with others, but with myself instead. Most important things, this graduation will be the beginning of my-new-version-self, my future tameni ^_^
