| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I'm starting a discussion thread since the English translation is finally out! I really enjoyed this movie. I thought making a film through the perspective of fans was a really unique way of doing a anniversary film. The character art was super expressive and the OST gave me nostalgia (even though I've only watched Doremi barely over a year ago lol). Overall I thought this was very enjoyable. |
| I haven't seen much of the series except for most of the 4Kids dub, the first two episodes of the Japanese version, and the frog movie, and that's it. And yet...I absolutely loved this movie! Everything about it was just filled with everything I could ever want in a movie, and I loved all the characters in it. Also, Mire throwing Reika's boyfriend and telling him off was satisfying as hell. |
| Very interesting concept of anime about an existing anime! Too bad it wasn't used enough. |
| That was a very nice SoL movie (though MAL only classifies it as "Comedy, Magic, Shoujo"). However, I fear that it will be soon forgotten as many will presume it is sequel of Dorémi. And the Ojamajo Carnival at the begining is just so refreshing. |
| I don't know anything about Doremi or the maho-genre in general so I might have missed a ton of references here but in spite of that I liked this coming-of-age story a lot even though a few times it reminded me painfully of those things that I usually want to sweep under the rug while watching anime. Maceart said: There was so much alcohol drinking in this movie... I don't see why would that be a problem. They were adults and there is a recurrent situation in anime (and even in japanese movies) dealing with young-adult women (and men) in which the girls, co-workers, friends go to an izakaya to get drunk together and to let off some steam and talk things over. It is completely normal (even in real life), they were not alcoholists drinking alone at home all the time but a few young women getting together and enjoing healthy social life. For example in the last season I watched three series that had adult main characters (Odd taxi; It's Too Sick to Call this Love; Higehiro) and in all of them friends or co-workers drinking together after work was a normal thing. This movie and those series just reflect how japanese enjoy ther life outside of work and what part alcohol consumption plays in it. BTW the genre tags of the movie are completely misleading, the story is more slice of life than "comedy, magic, shoujo" even though magic-girls play important part in the story in a sense. |

| Just incredible. Writing and characters are amazing and the way Satou & Co. used the original setting was a genius move. A movie fitting of one the best franchises in japanese animation. |
| fun and entertaining movie, the op remake really brings back memories and it was really nice too. fitting for an anniv/ comeback movie... unlike some anime where they just keep milking the plot |
| This is how you make an aniversary movie, about a series that already ended. Not an XXXXXX Super or XXXXXXX Adventure: |
| A little shallow. There's an awful lot of storylines and they each get very little time. It doesn't even go into the way the "reality" of the story contrasts with Ojamajo Doremi; that show certainly didn't have anything like a father discarding his daughter, or even smaller things like the boy-crazy one just ending up with an awful boyfriend, or the shy one's gathering of courage of confess not getting her anything. Even the way the three women's favorite Doremi character doesn't correspond to the character they're actually most like isn't played with much. |
