Kara no Kyoukai 6: Boukyaku Rokuon Episode 1 Discussion

In the movie yeah... which ignores a lot of what made Oblivion Recording good. Its a very average adaptation of what was one of my favorite chapters in the novel.

Agreed, while it still works as a solid adaptation, it's just a shame they weren't able to fully utilize the original plot and the role of the fairies and Kurogiri.

I was just bored through most the film, it simply wasnt interesting and azaka was more annoying then entertaining. Definitely the worst of the bunch

OH S***, FAIRIES!!!
Animation/art and music was spectacular as always, but the story kinda... to put it lightly, sucked (well, at least for Kara no Kyoukai).
At least Azaka was cute. And that dog XD

I believe its the sister to be the reason as to why this movie got rated lower than the rest. The voice actor imo portrayed her with a less interesting or enjoyable to watch persona. She was portrayed too cartoony and should of been voiced more in a more serious realistic mood. Look more real angry and less sarcastic cartoony angry nahmeen. This is said after watching the first 9 mins for maybe a half hr to whole hr for some reason. Too many REPLAY REPLAY. Right after having a call with touko the master. Just listen to when she says That's-/ Sore wa and looks to Shiki 0_o don't you think she should of been portrayed as more serious, especially in her endeavors to her brother, and dark jealousy of his classmate.

Nah what I'm saying is she shoulda been portrayed with a malicious, serious tone. More enjoyable mabes. When the camera pans to focus away from the character's eyes. a serious, dark tone is emitted, and a more serious voiceplay would be fitting and better comfortable for the visual atmosphere.

REEEPLAY REEPLAY. O man, I have been stuck between 5:00 and 8:00 FOR LIKE FOREVER!

I KNOW WHY its the DAMN MUSIC. ITS MAGNIFICENT. Those are the tones it emits. It goes with how highly the sister thinks of herself. Them damn notes been leeaving me stuck in the beginnning. Muuusic to my ears...

I agree, the music in this particular one was really astounding, had that nice resonating vibe to it.

At first, I was ''yessss, incest!'' but then I remembered that I was watching Kara no Kyoukai and that it was a bit out of place.

The movie was good. Far to be as good as the last one but still, it was interresting to see the kind of relationship Miyata had with his sister.

Also the plot was good, even if I didn't really understand what that giant plant thing was. Also, did I read right or the girl who attempted suicide was in fact alive?

That new magician power was pretty cool, and a bit OP. I mean he could just say '' you are dying'' and the person would die, right?

In the next movie, we have a psycho cannibal! He seem to have eaten even the bones, that's pretty crazy...

I have a weird theory : what if that weird guy was the man part of Shiki? When he was talking with Miyata, he said that he was her part that wanted to kill the most, her most psycho part if we see it like this. Also, Shiki also need to kill, but when she had her double personnality, her murder were always excessively brutal, but now that she have one personnality, she is more neat in her killing. She lost her ''boy personnality'' after her accident and if I remember well, the guy she tried to kill when she had the car accident, and before Miyata saw her, was Araya. So what if he performed some kind of weird magic to split her in two? The productor muted the guy name on purpose, so it must have an important meaning. Anyway, this is just speculation and my imagination getting a bit too boundless :P

This movie was definitely a calming break from the madness of the fifth one. It was interesting but a bit underwhelming and stale at times. The incest part seemed unnecessary but this is Japan and I've seen this situation too many times to really care or be bothered. The story was intriguing but again felt like a bit of a side story more than anything. 7/10 for this movie, the action is always crazy awesome to watch and the ost is top notch, albeit took a different direction this time.

That ending though, WOW. That took me completely off guard and when I saw the guy go all "Itadakimasu!" on the corpse I'm like "oh....oh yeah, the madness is back." Araya is back huh? Or maybe it took place at an earlier time, not sure. I feel like that man mouthed the name "Shiki" but it's just a hunch based off Araya saying shishi. Guess I'll find out what all of this means in the next one.

This one was pretty meh but that preview is pretty hype.

Although it was kinda gross how the cannibal didn't bother washing the dead body or cooking it to kill the bacteria.

I'm quite disappointed about this film. It wasn't a bore to watch, the soundtrack was still amazing and the fight scenes were great. The real problem was with the story that was badly explained. I guess I'll have to read the manga to better understand the details.

Although the previous movie is better, I enjoyed watching this more. Stunning visuals with great soundtrack as usual, and very refreshing as it's not as dark. The starry night scene sent chills down my spine. It looked so real, the animation really is something.

9/10

Can I skip this? I heard it was one of the worse movie in the series.

The only problem with that is that there's parts in it (near the last part and also in the end-credits scene) that build up to the last movie. Just think of this movie as the calm before the storm, like a random fun adventure before the climax of the series.

He ate a whole human in one hour? Pretty impressive. Best movie so far. Almost worth a 9. Almost.

Wish I did. =n=

wow that animation during the fight sequence inside the church, had an eyegasm there..

Overall a decent movie. I enjoyed it as a sort of a breather, especially after that crazy movie 5. Its nice to see Shiki in a SOL atmosphere I guess, the dog was cute, crime investigation was just okay. Kokuto has a sis that's a brocon?

Yeah that ending was a little unexpected, whoa. Doesn't that dude have Kotomine's voice from Fate Stay Night? Must be same voice actor hmm

indeed it is the same voice actor


outstanding art and sound, as expected from ufotable

Beautiful art as expected, I too appreciate the breather especially after the foreshadowing of the next film. The battle scenes were exquisite and I now like Azaka's character more. On to 7!

This one was less intensive in terms of action, but it was not that bad. Granted, Azaka had to be developed some time soon, and they did a good job establishing her relationship with her brother.

Oh look a kara no kyoukai film without gore for once

LOLNOPE

Azaka was moe but the story was meh.

7/10

kinda disappointed.

Really enjoyed this.
Azaka best girl <3

I'm more surprised that he can eat a whole human O__O;

This was one of the weaker films of the series, but it wasn't the weakest. The mystery kept me interested. Onto 7th film :)

I love all the movies except this one
doesn't fit the series at all

5/10

Wasn't really a fan of this one.

Well,that was... ok I guess.
The tone doesn't fit the series at all and the movie wasn't nearly as interesting as the others.

Bit disappointing tbh. Felt out of place too. Azaka was okay, though.
So the guy in glasses brought back Shiki's memories, huh? Interesting, though hopefully the next movie is an improvement.

what a disappointment

cant stand azaka, too corny and kawaii

killed the mood that I'd grown accustomed to from the dark and serious tone set marvelously in movies 5 and 3.

I really hope 7 isnt like this, or Ill be disappointed.

6/10 is my score, so 3/5.

To be fair on both Nasu and Ufotable's part, the original content for Movie 6's story revolved around enjo kōsai ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enjo_k%C5%8Dsai ) which has a really huge stigma in Japan. In this regard, I can see why they might have changed it to a simpler, albeit still serious, drug addiction story.

It's not so much an excuse for the light-hearted tone of the movie, but it does explain why it feels a bit more toned down compared to the other films.



You don't have to worry about that. ^_^

I'm giving this a bad rating simply because the random disappearance of the God's Word guy.

The best about this movie was the dog. That is all, ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your attention.

Wasted 1h for this piece of garbage just to see a few scenes involving the dog, not so bad because, of course, I have nothing else to do with life...

*Yawn*



There's hardly any point in this movie.

Incest and moe K?

"I'm hungry, Mikiya." Yeah, for his dick, maybe.

Watched approximately 10 minutes of it, then skipped. This had nothing to do with the five previous movies.

I guess you missed the end-credits scene that leads up to the final film then...?

Ok, so two minutes out of sixty were relevant to the globality of the series. Tough deal.

This movie was so left field, but I somehow enjoyed.

well as ronri said beforehand this certainly was a breather. when i learned of the wincest hint i kinda freaked out but nothing happened so phew.

the animation of the fight with kokouto's sister...so sick! my favorite part is when she was jumping on the chairs.

wow the movie didn't take long to switch over to its original setting for sure o_O whoever that guy is, he's crazy.

and PLEASE LORD MAKE SURE YOU KILL SOREN. he's back AGAIN?!? ugh...it's too soon to see him now >:(

after the 2nd movie the OST has always caught my eye. my favorite song would have to be shiki's theme.

oh and is it just me or does kokouto look EXACTLY like harry potter here?



even the scarf. shee.

8/10.

Araya is actually still dead here and in the next movie. The scene you witnessed is set very early on in the past way before Shiki met Araya or the other antagonists... so it's while it seems random it's actually related to a very important story thread.



Haha I've seen people point this out before so you're not alone in thinking this! ^_^

Incidentally, thinking about the incest topic of this film, I find it funny that for all of Azaka's glorification over her attraction for Mikiya, the flashback revealed that the basis of it was hardly the kind of fetish-y or romantic at all and felt closer to a proper brother-sister admiration. It made her feel more genuine in her feelings while serving to show her strength as someone who can willfully boast about it.

So it's funny that she'd actually forget that important detail and simply brand it as some taboo attraction especially when the basis of her care for him was actually well-meaning in their intentions.

Well, it was another good movie.

This goes more for Azaka (and her moeness) and truth be told, I was surprised
to discover that she was into Mikiya... well, it's her brother in law so..it's not
that wrong...Is it?

Anyway, it felt a little bit rushed, but at the same time everything fell in place.
The mystery and battles got cut down a bit, even when the battle was kind of cool.

As always, Ufotable doing magic with animation and sound and Kalafina adding
the special touch with the songs.

I did notice, the girl with the dog... isn't she the one in future gospel? I've seen her somewhere...

Well, next movie we have a cannibal... ok ok.

they're siblings by blood

Fuck my subtitles then =/
They said "in law" in the ones I watched... Damn it.
They had ONE job.

Why did you know about future gospel? Did you see a trailer?

Don't worry, I don't know a thing.
I just recognized her face from the one on the cover image of Future Gospel here in MAL.
I saw it when I was researching for the order I should watch the KnK movies.
I don't know who she is or what she does, but the fact she got those seconds on focus made me remember her.

Alright, I should have guessed it xD
Have fun with the rest of the series!

why do shiki looks like a girl in 16 in this movie?

So many pretentious people here
