Review taken from: https://myanimelist.net/reviews.php?id=352453


THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS PAST A CERTAIN POINT
IT HAS BEEN LABELLED BELOW WHEN THEY BEGIN

This movie is complete garbage.
All the major characters are either unlikable or immoral monsters that deserve to be thrown in jail. Where is the justice in this world that these evil people are supposed to be cheered on while killing so many civilians? This society is disgusting.
The only likable people here are completely sidelined or killed off unceremoniously.

The music was horrific. The animation was some of the worst I’ve ever seen – much worse than the 2006 anime. You cannot tell what is happening in any of the fights. It is all just a light show with no meaning. If you watch this movie at night with the lights off, your neighbours will think you are having a rave party and will call the police.

The best scene in this movie was when Kirei Kotomine sat in a restaurant and was eating mapo tofu. His enjoyment is infectious, and he embodies manliness even while doing something as simple as eating lunch. Things start heating up so much that steam starts exuding from Kirei, and I would be lying if I denied that I started getting a little hot under the collar myself. You’re on the edge of your seat the entire time wondering whether Kirei will share his food with Shirou. Then, it happens. I broke out into spontaneous applause. This jubilation then turns tragic when Shirou turns the offer down. This moment of wickedness foreshadows his darker turn in future movies. Quality filmmaking here. In fact, it was such a great scene, that it was in the first Heaven’s Feel movie – not this one.

In short, this movie is not worth your time. Skip this and just watch the third one. THERE IS NO YUETSU HERE. DO NOT REJOICE.




SPOILERS BEGIN




What happened to all of my scenes? It bears repeating: WHAT HAPPENED TO MY SCENES? I am contractually obligated to be in this route more, yet any casual viewer of this trash now thinks I’m the nice priest living down the road. This is a complete mockery of what should be the best route in the entire Fate series.

After being labelled as a main character originally, my screen time here is 4 minutes. Never could I imagine that a Heaven’s Feel movie could be so bad, yet here we are. Things have become so dire that this film cannot even match up against DEENight or – even worse – the Unlimited Blade Works anime from 2014. I’d sooner take the 2010 movie over this travesty.

Emiya Shirou’s hypocrisy is the main attraction here. His ridiculous reversal in the latter part of this movie completely repudiates all the other routes. Up until this film, that boy never stopped yapping about making everyone happy, but now we see that was all a complete lie. This boy is a fraud, and ultimately chooses his own needs over the lives of everyone in the city. The only thing more contemptible than Shirou are the apologists out there who defend these immoral actions. These are the same brain dead fan freaks that argue that Light Yagami is a noble hero. These people are just waiting to be taken advantage of by the next tyrant that catches their admiration. There is a consensus among psychologists that anyone could have become a Nazi during World War 2 and commit the same atrocities. These experts posit that the people living in Nazi Germany did not suddenly lose their minds and go insane, but were normal people like you and me that gradually shifted by degrees until they found themselves performing crimes against humanity. Let me tell you: after listening to these Shirou apologists, the psychologists are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. I beg you, reader, do not listen to these malleable simpletons who just need a few lovely chats with a charming fellow named Adolf to start manning the gas chambers. Think for yourself, and see Shirou as a deranged imbecile who has blood on his hands.

To all of you who may think my criticisms of Shirou’s ability as a protagonist are unfair, I will ask you to stay quiet, and to consider the situation he finds himself in here. In this movie, he is fully aware that the crest worm within Sakura is, indeed, a piece of the Holy Grail. The destruction of Sakura, and therefore the destruction of this crest worm, would mean hundreds if not thousands would be saved. He is also aware that I knew all of this, and yet I expended all of my command seals in a desperate attempt to keep Sakura alive. An infant could tell you after hearing this series of events that I wanted to save the dark Holy Grail inside of her, and this could only mean I wish to see the darkness released. I have just told you how a child could have grasped this simple conclusion, but we are not talking about a mind as advanced as a child’s; we are talking about Emiya Shirou. All he sees is that I saved his tentacle tramp, which means that what my reasons were “does not matter” to him. Instead of being outraged, he is thankful to me. It is only when the situation is plainly stated to him that he truly understands my goals. People praise my intelligence in manipulating the characters in this route, but when dealing with a “protagonist” this inept and unaware of his own stupidity, one starts to question how much intellect is actually necessary. I begin to suspect that even you the readers – as dumb as you are – could have led this half-witted sheep off a cliff.

That is all. Go away.

I am the Priest of my church
Yuetsu is my body, and wine is my blood
I have trolled over a thousand users
Unknown to sympathy, nor known to apathy
Withstood Shirou to eat Mapo Tofu
Yet, my question will never be answered
So as I rejoice, Unlimited Kirei Works!

Alas, shonen. If you’re going to let screentime die, let it not be a woman. It hits you pretty hard.

A certain scripture says that “there are worthless things, but there are no meaningless things.”

Many things slipped through Lost Butterfly, no matter what commandments Sudou-san used. Yet how can he abandon his way of life now?

It was a meaningless change. He is a madman engaged in senseless folley.
