| I liked this. Probably more than the prequel anime, because the movie was more condensed and most actions weren't as frustrating to watch. They managed to finish up all the story in a satisfying manner, the initial mystery isn't something overly complicated but was made to look like it due to these people having little clues about the "ancient" times. The worldbuilding itself was done quite nicely in a subtle way. Kaina is a chad, to go to his own wedding straight from the fields like this! Actually, Kaina is a really good character throughout all the series, very competent and good-hearted, it was interesting to follow him along on this journey. Other characters may not be as fleshed out, as him or Ririha, but they were also a nice addition to the cast, Amerote's design is really cool! I only wish they made something more conclusive for her and Orinoga. Overall, quite an enjoyable watch. Maybe not the most memorable one, but definitely something that had some compelling ideas and the cgi here was done pretty well, the trees and other nature visuals looked beautiful. |

| The antagonist from this movie was so horrible, it felt like watching a disney movie Apart from that it was very enjoyable, I love this anime's universe and wish we could have gotten more time after the ending, it ended too quickly ! Polygon's Pictures' improvement over the years since Sidonia no Kishi is such a blessing, while I'm not fond of CGI in anime, Polygon learned to make it really beautiful and I can't wait to see what they're gonna do next. |
| So, Kaina knows that the glasses have some type of power, he knows that the suit is something that can change the world or at least control everything, he knows that the antagonist is trying to use it to destroy the tree, yet, when he finds the glasses and the suit he didnt even try to use it? Then proceeds to bring it to antagonist and say no im not going to give it to you when obviously you have 0 chance of resisting? I dont really get the personality and behavior of kaina there, I meant yea I know he has like an innocent personality but holy man, you cant be this stupid for real. |
| It retains all the bad aspects of the series, plus poor exposition, and none of the good ones. |
| I feel every new nihei story has less sci-fi than the last. the trailer made it out to be the coolest thing ever, I was hoping for nihei overload after the chucklefuck adventure story that the series was. in the end it was just more of the same. it's okay, just forgettable. what interests me the most is if nihei's stories fit into a timeline. |

| So, basically that world is a Xenoblade Chronicles 2 rip off. Both the world building and story, remembers me of XC2. My architect be darned, or should I say sage, in this case. But whatever. What really makes this movie bad, is how dumb Kaina is. Oh! I found the thing that the bad guys are looking for. Better carry than wear it, after all the suit looks like could control all the things that give our captors upper hand. Seriously, this could had ended the battle sooner and could had made more time for the aftermath. |

| Really cool way to wrap up the series. There's still a lot of mystery surrounding it though, which will remain unanswered. |
 |
| amazing story, kinda rushed at the end but still very exciting |
| I liked it more than S1 even if they villain was a goofball. The Home Depot drip was on point. |
| That was a good conclusion and the story's world building is nice indeed. If they made it longer, it could be better but it doesn't mean that this movie was even lesser. I really love these simple characters but Kaina is too kind to actually go outside of the room while holding the suit... that was a lol factor from him, as always. One of the most notable aspects of this series is having a lot of characters having their own line and minds to get a better understanding of their lives. We even get to have something like this... lmao and they lived and loved happily ever after |

| 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. |
| So the story was about terraforming all along and it was near the end of the process. They just had to say the word. That villain took "a little learning is dangerous" to a whole new level. Fucking retard. Mostly satisfied with how they handled the movie except for the retard villain and the ending. Wish they showed more of how things are going for everyone but hey they atleast showed Ririha and Kaina's wedding, really happy. The anime as a whole was really interesting. Liked the ending too, was a good watch. Will probably rewatch it in the future. Btw forgot to mention but Orinaga was real smooth with Amerothe at the begining there. Wish they showed their wedding too. |

| Just watched it. Fwiw, this movie is simply season 2 of the anime. I don't think the animation is any better, something you'd usually expect from a movie. Anyway, this anime really lived on its interesting setting. The story and characters are really dumb, though. A lot has been written about how Kaina could have just worn the suit himself. But then there's also Amalotee who had several opportunities to TELL the others that she's just playing the little dicator. But no, she kept quiet and endangered everyone. Most disappointing part, however, is how bland and overly simplistic the world was. So there's one 20-something guy at the top, guarded by two brute twins, and EVERYONE does as he says? Ok. And if he thinks he's doing good, why behave like such a villain? There was no need to treat people like slaves, just tell them the plan and work together. Is this story from before the author wrote BLAME! and Sidonia? Because it feels very barebones, like a draft or first try compared to his other stories. That said: Can we now PLS have a BLAME!-anime? Thank you. |
| If you haven't watched "Fantastic Children", don't talk about "best anime". Thank you. |
| Must be the most simple story Nihei has ever done. Actually ending on a fairytale wedding scene? Well, I would have never.... That said I enjoyed this quite a bit. No harem, no endless conversation or monologues. The setting was interesting and compelling and the story while basic, was interesting enough to keep me into it. I love the little connections to some of his other works. I feel like it's almost a sequel to Sidonia a thousand years into the future. |

| I liked more than the series. (Except the villain what a stupid mom issues guy) liked a lot all the concept and the meaning behind all the world and the end was surprising wholesome and simple for Nihei other works lol. The marriage was cute. Also would like more Orinaga and Ameroth. Since S1 my ship mind was already going for both. Solid 8/10 for me. |

| @Farabeuf I really enjoyed it. Even the villain in the end seemed fine. We had the nasty "evil" villain in the series. This guy was just misguided. |
| Eh, it was bad :( Maybe if I was a kid I'd like it more )) |
| Omg! I loved every second of the finale. So much adventure and beautiful animation. Seeing Kaina grow and discover the world as basically a bumpkin was really fun to watch<3 |
| Positively surprised. The narration felt better and more consistend in the movie. Though it still had some weaknesses similar to the series: While sci-fi stuff is hinted (old civilization that got destroyed) there is stuff that felt like magic/fantasy. (The ghosts.) And they could sneak in too easy again. (Series I think it was where they escaped - which seemed to easy.) But the conclusion of the plot - with that authorized user suit and the visors ... felt not too bad. Was interesting to watch. A bit fast again at th end though. They did not even need to move to the control room again. And would have been interesting to see stuff of the old civilization. From how I understood it: Stuff like the ozone layer got destroyed. And cosmic radiatoin was a problem. And the system with the trees managed to restore things. (With the snow maybe an extra layer to protect the stuff in the water. Probably also a lot of old stuff from the old civilizatio sunk into the water.) 8/10 (7.5 rounded up) here. Series I went with 6/10. |
