Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo! Movie: Kurenai Densetsu

It is not strange that the Demon Lord's forces fear the Crimson Demons, the clan from which Megumin and Yunyun originate. Even if the Demon Lord's generals attack their village, the Crimson Demons can just easily brush them off with their supreme mastery of advanced and overpowered magic.

When Yunyun receives a seemingly serious letter regarding a potential disaster coming to her hometown, she immediately informs Kazuma Satou and the rest of his party. After a series of wacky misunderstandings, it turns out to be a mere prank by her fellow demon who wants to be an author. Even so, Megumin becomes worried about her family and sets out toward the Crimson Demons' village with the gang.

There, Kazuma and the others decide to sightsee the wonders of Megumin's birthplace. However, they soon come to realize that the nonsense threat they received might have been more than just a joke.

If there’s one thing KonoSuba consistently delivers, it’s pure, unfiltered chaos—and Legend of Crimson takes that chaos, dials it up to eleven, and blasts it into the stratosphere with an explosion worthy of Megumin herself. This movie isn’t just an extension of the beloved series; it’s the best of KonoSuba distilled into a feature-length masterpiece.

From the very start, the movie captures everything that makes KonoSuba great: ridiculous humor, absurd situations, and characters that are as lovable as they are dysfunctional. The animation is more fluid than ever, making every comedic gag, exaggerated expression, and action scene hit even harder. Studio J.C. Staff went all out, ... ensuring that the signature KonoSuba charm is intact, while giving it a polished, cinematic feel.

The heart of this movie is undoubtedly Megumin. With the story set in her homeland, the Crimson Demon village, we finally get to see her among her own kind—who are just as over-the-top and dramatic as she is! Watching Kazuma navigate this bizarre community, all while Megumin wrestles with her own feelings, is hilarious and surprisingly heartwarming. Their dynamic in this movie is hands down one of the best parts of KonoSuba as a whole.

Kazuma, as always, is in peak form—his sarcastic, shameless antics never get old. His interactions with Megumin’s family, his “strategic” decision-making, and his overall approach to dealing with the insanity around him make for some of the film’s funniest moments. And, of course, the rest of the party—Aqua being uselessly hilarious, Darkness being... well, Darkness—all contribute to the nonstop entertainment.

While KonoSuba is primarily a comedy, Legend of Crimson also delivers on the action. The final battle is surprisingly intense, blending great choreography with comedic timing that makes it unforgettable. But beyond the laughs and explosions, there’s also a surprising amount of emotional depth, particularly when it comes to Megumin’s development. The way the film balances humor with genuine character moments is what pushes it from great to perfect.

Legend of Crimson isn’t just a fantastic KonoSuba movie—it’s the KonoSuba experience at its absolute peak. It takes everything fans love about the series and refines it into an unforgettable ride filled with absurdity, action, and, of course, explosions. Whether you're here for the comedy, the characters, or just to see Kazuma suffer, this film delivers in every way.

10/10 – Explosively perfect!

Mixed Feelings

This was basically an extension of the show in the form of a movie instead of split up into episodes, which fair enough - it definitely isn't the worst anime movie I've seen, especially because the feel of the movie was very consistent with the actual seasons of the show and everyone was in character, plus the narrative of it felt as relevant as it could to a relatively plot-less isekai.
I could have done without them trying to make Kazuma and Megumin a thing, as it definitely wasn't needed, and once more Kazuma proves how absolutely useless he is. This seems very consistent with ... the stereotypical isekai so I don't understand the hype surrounding the show, but it's definitely one you don't have to take seriously and can kind of switch off to, which I can appreciate in its own right.

This is a review from a big fan of Konosuba and I was really excited to finally watch this movie. I love Konosuba and think it's amazing and deserving of praise, but this movie was just awful.
The animation wasn't bad and the sound was pretty good, but the jokes and the story were good awful. None of the jokes hit the same way as in the series and the story was just boring. I hated how they made everyone just another Megumin in the clan and I have some questions for this movie.

Why did all the users in the clan not have to use staves ... except for Megumin? Aqua also uses a staff and other magic users use them as well. So why does the entire Crimsion clan not use them? I get that Wiz doesn't use them but it made a bit of sense to me since she was a lich. Most liches are powerful beings who use special dark magic unlike other magic users. I thought that Wiz would be the same and she was incredibly powerful and thus she didn't need a staff since her power was so great. But if the entire clan is just as powerful, why don't they go after the Demon King? Instead they don't seem to be doing anything about it. Also, why is Megumin's parents poor if they both have magic, at least the mom does, and seem to be pretty good at it. Why don't they just go do guild work to get said money? It doesn't make much sense. And it seems that they are the only people to have problems with money in the clan. But why? I thought it would have been much better had they not been great magic users, all the clan members didn't live in the same area, we focused more on Megumin's childhood and Yoonyoon, and we had more in the way for romance for Kazuma and Megumin. This movie was a huge let down. The right scene at the end was boring because they had this entire clan that could take down the general if needed to and there was hardly any focus on Megumin and Yoonyoon.
There are also points in the movie where it seemed like the characters were doing things that didn't make a lot of sense for them. At one point, when talking to Yoonyoon's dad, they are told that a large group of minions of the Devil King was coming to the village. The dad doesn't seem bothered by it but you know who got freaked out over it? Kazuma and Darkness. Let's hear that again. Kazuma and DARKNESS. Why would Darkness be freaking out over this? She would be excited if anything, but she isn't. Aqua should have been the one to freak out over it. And there are other moments like this but I can't say I paid enough attention to even remember what they exactly were.

Also, they make jokes about sexual assault several times. Just why... Yes, Kazuma stole panties of girls but when watching it, I was never bothered by it I guess because of the way they did it. He did it a few times throughout the show though the major time he did it, and the first time, was to win the dual against Chris. The show made it clear he was trash but never made him try to assault one of the girls or be assaulted as a joke. That's what they did in this movie. Kazuma almost got raped by a gang of orc women and the show made it off as a joke. It didn't sit well with me and wasn't handled in the same way when he stole panties by using steal. I know it's weird to be okay with that thing but not this but it just wasn't funny and was kinda just horrible.

I really, really did not like this movie and I watched this after watching all of Konosuba again. This was just horrible and didn't even feel like Konosuba one bit. I am very disappointed by this movie and will never watch it again.
