| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oh for the love of Amuro and Char, why did I have to see this again? Maybe because I have forgotten the OVA series that spawned this after watching it more than two years ago. @_@ Now I remembered why that was forgettable and this was... regrettable. X_X I had to re-rate the OVA series again and even downgraded it because this was suddenly shit-weird again. The art and animation was great but being a movie, the pacing on this one suffered, the story almost became incoherent and confusing even if Nina was narrating it. And oh, how I remembered why I hated her on the OVA, she's even worse here! >_< Maybe I'm just getting old and jaded. 6/10 |

__amaterasu__ said: Not necessarily. I didnt watch stardust memory yet so it gave me a quick overview of it. I'll watch the main series when I have more free time.That was a total waste of time since it's just a summary of stardust memory. And Nina narrating it was double annoying for me :s |
| For a recap this was actually very good! Pretty solid way to bundle the whole story together of this series! If you don't want to spend all the time in the series, these recap movies are actually a really good to watch! |

I fit the bill right there - wasn't sure if I had the patience for all of Stardust Memories, so I'm not disappointed. A short note on the music though: the instrumental version of the theme song was wayyy more effective at evoking the tragic and bittersweet atmosphere of the aftermath of war - especially where it was placed in the beginning amidst scenes of postwar reconstruction at colony-debris sites. Hearing the vocal version in the end totally ruined it for me - it felt like a super-cheesy rendering of the theme. Tag if you felt the same way. |
