Synopsis

Graduation looms for the founding members of the Light Music Club. With only a few precious weeks of school left, the girls decide to make the most of it and plan a trip abroad. Hawaii, New York, Dubai—many destinations are suggested, but after a little help from the club's precious pet turtle, Ton-chan, London is chosen as the host of their next misadventure!

Yui Hirasawa, Mio Akiyama, Tsumugi Kotobuki, Ritsu Tainaka, and Azusa Nakano will visit famous landmarks, perform live music for Londoners, and eat all sorts of delicious food, all while stumbling clumsily from place to place. But the fun won't last forever, as heartfelt songs and goodbyes will be made as their high school days together come to a close. One thing is for certain though: the undeniable friendships these girls have formed is something that will carry on long after the final scene rolls.

This movie tells a story where K-On girls go overbroad. In here we will see about their relationship in depth. You will be taken once in a while to a nostalgia trip down the franchise. I'm amazed about how they can make my heart touched the second time in this franchise. Its really a great ending to the girls journey. Even though they still have the manga, it will never change the fact that this is the true ending for the series.

Story 9/10

Mixed Feelings
I actually liked K-On! and K-On!!, and I like slice-of-life anime in general.

Perhaps 22 minutes of aimless antics seems charming, but you can't expand it to nearly two hours. The entire movie has about the level of "conflict" (like, say, Yui wants a guitar) as a perhaps two episode of the series spread across 2 hours or so. In my opinion, it just doesn't work. This is about 2 episodes worth of content (40 minutes) spread across 110 minutes, and it's really boring.

I say this as someone who views K-On! and K-On!! favorably, so don't be super surprised if you liked the series but ...

Now, the regular K-On! show sure is entertaining. The formula that they use works well with a 25-minute timeslot, and it is light and fun. The problem with this movie is that it's basically just a really really long episode, which is completely neglecting the strength of the K-On! series to begin with.
Moreover, this thing is simply a season 2 extension. Most of the senseless rambling the cast does throughout the film is about graduation and Azusa. The premise of the film is exactly the same as it was for season 2. Never mind the terrible execution of the purpose, absolutely nothing was challenging ...
