| don't get me wrong, it's a good show. but man, it is the first time of me that I hated an anime just because my girl does not get the mc P....... gotta give the lowest rating for sure |
| 4th times getting signature banned wtf |
| So from what I gather this is just a romance finale to the series? Should I read the manga to get the real ending? |
  |
| It's good but the finale would have been better without this movie tbh. 7/10. |

| I stumbled upon Knights of Sidonia awhile back when it surfaced on Netflix. I fell in love with the series pretty quick and after watching season two I was even quicker to pick up the manga. I don't fully remember everything about the manga ending, as it's been awhile since I read it. The manga itself is pretty short, so I don't feel like this movie did the series any more or less justice than the manga did. So, all-in-all, I felt like it was the bare minimum of an ending. The movie felt like it was moving pretty fast with lots of quick cuts, but I remember feeling that way while reading the final arc in the manga too. I really liked the ending song, and the movie looked really good. Like, noticeably better than the first two seasons. Although it's not like that was why I picked up this series in the first place, it was just a nice little bonus this time around. I still don't know how I feel about Tsumugi route. But, it was nice to see another installment of Sidonia after so long, even if it was the last one. |

| Just finished watching this and I thought it was superb, I really enjoyed it. The visuals were excellent, especially the design for Ochiai, he genuinely looked nightmarish during the startup sequence. I also thought the soundtrack was outstanding, I’ve been trying to buy the music but I can’t find it for sale where I am. 😢 The final battle was really awesome, I actually thought a lot of the main characters weren’t going to make it. There was one shot of Tsumugi that was really horrific, after all her sacrifices I’m glad they came up with a happy ending for her. For a movie that looks so good, it’s hard to believe it’s flown so far under the radar considering how much they must have spent on it. Then again, I think the plot would be pretty incomprehensible to someone who hadn’t watched the series. I’m really grateful they made this, it was the perfect send off. |
| It followed the manga pretty on point.. tho they didnt put in the after credits scene the manag has. |
| really like it...most of the crew were retired and decide to stay.......not sure if it get another season...it kinda like it solve everything...but wait and see... |
 |
| I don't know why but the face structure of Nagate and Izana changed as well as Tsumugi's color is more lighter than usual... Ochiai's love for Lalah was more inspiring to look forward to coming into fruition than the average and normal ending we got, it was okay for me but skipping supporting characters like that is an atrocious way of adapting a series. The way Ochiai could have explored the memories of the Gauna would be an unbelievable discovery but we didn't get that and went with a simple one. I'm still thankful that we got something like a movie to summarize a conclusion for this series once and for all even if the 3rd season won't ever be coming. Yeah, a sequel or a spin-off tackling the mystery of the Gauna would have been nice... but Tanizake already destroyed the memory so a spin-off or another alternate dimension/universe is the only way but even that would be a stretch. Kobayashi, Izana, Ren, and Yuhata seem to have given up on Nagate's love and affection and poor Yuhata decides to change her... I can't believe this... |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| Took me a bit but am I right to understand this Tsumugi isn't a copy or clone like Ochiai was (he cloned his memories and personality) but rather still the same Tsumugi we've been seeing from the start as this was still a part of her Ena. That would explain why she said "I thought I'd never see you again" Glad they could use that Hoshijiro placenta to a good use ... though I do wonder what happened to the other Hoshijiro placenta that was used to create Chimera Tsumugi. Interesting to see Yuhata as a male, from what I've read it was through cybernetic changes but I wonder why she changed, she could've been with Izana either way. Fantastic ending though, though the time skip of 10 years didn't really do much other than establishing they made some new Gardes and people having aged. I enjoyed the conclusion of them having colonized a planet and living a peaceful life while Sidonia is still exploring space. I think it could've benefited from being another season rather than a movie with how little we've seen of Kanata and maybe exploring some more mysteries of the Gauna but still a fantastic movie. Entire series is just a solid 9/10. |

| Overall it is a fitting end to the series. It is a real shame that not many people know of this film, i guess after 6 years of waiting and no longer being available on netflix it is probably why most haven't seen it. Still it was great, i like the battles, the animation was on point and loved the little romance that was developed. I feel fortunate, the mech genre is pretty much stagnant at this point so it is rare to even have any mech shows anymore let alone with a fully developed and wrapped up story. il cherish it forever and encourage anyone to give this series a try. 9/10 Well done |
| Just saw the movie. It's really a 3rd season and I loved that. It's more Sidonia, which is what I wanted. As for the ending, I guess what I'm disappointed about is: - so what exactly were the Gauna what was their goal, beyond killing people? - why was Yuhata suddenly male? That was kinda dumb. - are we supposed to believe that the Gauna danger is over now? And while I like a good happy end, espcially in a story that often is as cruel and hopeless as this one, Tsumugi getting the Hoshijiro-body just was a bit too much wish-fullfilment for Tanzikaze. Like, that's what a horny weeb like me might dream about, but it's not what you'd put in the actual story. I actually enjoyed the Tanikaze-15m alien relationship. I actually thought that when Tsumugi was burning down inside the sun, that he body would end up in just the right size, lol. That would have still left her with an alien appearance, but a more everyday-szie to live with Tanikaze. Oh well. Oh, I was super mad though at the scene where Ochiai killed 120 Gardes with his one energy blast. Like, wtf, I literally said out aloud "too many". Sidonia doesn't have that many pilots no the material to recuperate such losses. I guess that's how you know it's the end of the story. Still, so many pilots dying ... and not enough reaction from the others. Ah, I'll stop complaining, because it makes it look like I didn't enjoy the movie. I really liked it. Mostly fast-paced, good action, creepy scenes, as well as nice, happy scenes. Could have been better, but it could also have been much worse. I'll take this. Now please turn BLAME! into an anime. |
| If you haven't watched "Fantastic Children", don't talk about "best anime". Thank you. |
Narutobi_Sensei said: did... did yuhata turn into a dude??? wtf? all that gender switching shit was hella weird, bro just grew a pair of tits and other girls just disintegrated. off putting to say the least. and how come the whole 'what are the guana saying? maybe theyre just misunderstood? if only we could communicate with them' didnt pan out. that was what hoshijiro wanted and they were just like, nah fuck em. i really thought he would let ochiai live because of that. also tsumugi has the personality of a literal 5 yr old... yuhata turned into a boy after being rejected. yeah they never followed that thread really. and tsumugi is the worst character in the show. the whole creepy weird "love" story felt so forced the show would have been way better. at the point i can only give the movie a 6.5 maybe for everything else. this show did not need a love story, or a harem, i'd rather see more character development and lore, and some attempts at interaction with guana. it made a good show bad. |

| Rewatched the first two seasons just to watch this movie. Animation in this movie looks clearly better and spectacular. Sound effects are as good as in the previous seasons. I thought that Nagate's feelings for Tsumugi came out of nowhere. He liked Hoshijiro in the first season and it had proper buildup. Even Izana got a lot more screentime with him in the second season and it would have been better to make her the love interest. The author could have hinted that Tanikaze liked Tsumugi earlier back in the 2nd season instead of wasting 4 episodes with Izana. Yuhata randomly switching genders was weird too. Izana x Yuhata was totally forced. I was hoping that we could get some more info on the Gauna. They just stay as generic monsters throughout the series. The mecha fights were total eyecandy especially the final fight near the star. That alone makes it worth the watch at least even though the rest of it was somewhat of a letdown. |
| Finally, finally got around to watchin this. I have always been a big fan of Tsutomi Nihei and love his work. Sidonia works as a great gateway into his crazy world and ideas. And I thought that the first couple of seasons of Sidonia were pretty well done despite the weird animation that Polygon uses. I hated that the ending to the story came out as a movie instead of a series, but on the other hand it meant a bigger budget and better/more fluid animation and designs. And boy are the battles absolutely amazing. Sidonia has always had some of the best sound designs of any show out there, but in this one it's just a level above. Do yourself a favour and watch witha good surround system or quality headphones and a DAC. Crazy sound. The manga had a bit of a rushed ending, and the film kinda of chose to put a lot of focus on the romance...which is a bit of an acquired taste to say the least. If you cannot accept the main ship it ends with, you'll hate this film. I'm hoping that they eventually release this as a series with some extra animation. It deserves to be better known. |

| disappointed!!! It was a correct film, entertaining but without merit to remember! kekeke 5/10 and thnaks |
| What a horrible ending. Everything with Izana was a complete waste of time last season and why did they ruin Yuhata with that weird shit at the end. |
