Guess this isn't out overseas yet, but I got the power of VPN + I paid a rental fee on U-Next LOL

But (only) one more to the harem! I'd say nothing special, but I don't think we watch this show for anything special. Animation was slightly above average for certain scenes, but we don't really need too much for this one. We got the tragic prince, the ultra-convenient exposition through "it was a dream." The movie knows what it's doing. We're only here for the chaos that is the lovable Katarina.

So we got a prince from a DIFFERENT GAME?? Obviously it's not a canon movie, but I'm just wondering why they didn't make it so that he was from a spin-off game or something. BUT glad they featured EVERYONE in Katarina's harem including some of the newer/less frequent members.

The ending was as expected. Tied the lose ends of a non-canon plot with a "you lose your memories" kind of deal. But that twist at the end. Okay ;) good call birdie. Best wingman.

6/10. Prolly just a one time watch from me, but enjoyable! Season 3 on the way maybe? Y'know, just a nice popcorn movie/show.

Dang....I know that none of these [movie-only] characters are likely going to ever show up in the 'canon' story cuz of the erase memory gimmick but the loophole at the end makes you hopeful he returns/makes a cameo in the future.

(I mean, personally I'd like to see him "grownup" like how he looks like in the "game" from Katerina's flashback ....but then that brings up the question of how old is he compared to the others--aka how many years will it take for him to "turn into THAT"...HMMmmm....)

Also wow, everyone made a cameo even Raphael, which surprised me. In a good way -Before I knew it I was grinning from ear to ear when they all combined their powers.

Overall I felt it was decent but....there's certain parts that bugged me, though if you asked me what it was specifically...I can't seem to put my finger on it....

Magical. Beautiful. PEAK.

Been a while since I've last seen Bakarina and her Harem.

Really enjoyed this movie, Mutrac's lore was pretty good, a royal bloodline that can control/talk to animals + a legendary bird beast, cool.

And I actually like Aaqil!, a shame that we were hit by a "forget it beam!" to make it non-canon? but Piyo said Catarina will get her memories back when they meet again so... I do hope we meet them again.

Would be nice to have another sequel (season 3!)

Decent movie! I'm glad CR finally decided to acquire it and allow us to view it after such a long time since this aired on Japanese cinemas.

In general, the animation was more or less on par with the series but some of the movie visuals started to show up in the second half and they were great to keep up with. Looks like the whole forced amnesia thing pretty much rules out the canon part and doesn't have any significance either way which is a pity. At least until whenever they meet, it seems. Don't forget to keep watching the credit roll too for that last bit. Same company and multi-universes collabing, that sure sounds like potential for more sequel projects, no?

I remember when this first came out and revolutionised the Otome game genre at least in anime format. Vividly remember enjoying this and Yesterday wo Utatte during early COVID time. I would be sad if this is the final project but it is a good sendoff nonetheless. 7/10 from here.

There's almost no comedy or fun character moments here. What did I watch this for?

The only thing of note is one new character (worth talking about) and a new culture. They look nice and are mildly interesting.

The story is predictable and feels like a minor side-quest. And as many have pointed out already, the tired plot device of memory tampering left a bad taste in my mouth. The harem has nothing to do here, and are basically just cameos.

The movie overall feels strangely slapdash. The visuals look a tiny bit better than the TV seasons, maybe. But there was a lot of fancy 3D CG camera movement, which felt cheap and distracting. Many of the scenes felt oddly quiet, or the music did not fit the scene very well. Some cuts and transitions felt as if they didn't know how to end the scene and connect to the next one.

If you're absolutely champing at the bit for more Bakarina, I guess it's something. Otherwise, it's a pointless experience, and I'll forget about this movie in an hour or two.

It was good but I liked the previous seasons much better. Compressing the story to a movie length means a lot less Bakarina sillyness which made the rest of the adaptation charming.
Well, could've been much worse, I guess.

I was not expecting a Bakarina drop today, but it was a pleasant surprise.

The usual shenanigans ensue (including our villainess making a new conquest). The harem helped out a bit, but in the end it was Pochi who saved the day with dark magic, not light magic as she had thought.

And no explanation of how the beast got sent to another kingdom, or why the King was so keen to find and release it, when releasing it could effortlessly undermine his power.

Still, it was a fun journey, though the whole amnesia thing at the end seemed somewhat counter-productive.

I just witnessed greatness on another level.
I laughed, I cried, this was absolutely magnificent.
I originally thought Piyo was going to be the holy beast as the movie progressed but I wasn't too far off.
10/10 what a masterpiece.

It isn't bad, but... you can feel that it isn't hamefura to his max power... and that this is a classic film filler...
The end of the movie, then... in Italian we say "è una vera paraculata" I don't know how to translate it... maybe "it is a smart move to protect themselves" (I'm talking about who wrote the story, obviously)?

I was about to give this movie a 6 cause, but after the memory erase I can't help but to give this a 5. I know in the epilogue they say she'll regain her memories when they meet again, but all of that felt unnecessary/pointless.

That aside, I think it was a very okay enjoyment as I found myself bored or uninterested here and then.

It's sad cause Hamefura first season (TV series) is so nice and unique. But unfortunately I can't say the same to 2nd season and now the movie.

Hamefura was one of the 1st otome animes released that would also spark lots of more otome animes to come, but Hamefura 1st was the only truly enjoyable otome content I had so far.
