I ain't a reviewer. I just have a perspective on the movie and the franchise as a whole that i want to share.

I wont beat around the bush , the movie was just fun. Perhaps the most exciting movie ever i have watched. Its modern dragon ball at its absolute best.
Industry defining action sequences to a showcase of a number of varied animation styles that are so unique and out there.

Also , a movie with a story with no tension , consequences ( just like all the other non canon movies in the franchise ) or real threat . But ... as a guy who has seen this franchise's focus change for the better over the years , its just not the way to go anymore. The franchise is so old now that forcibly bringing tension in a world which has gone through everything will be so artificial. And that is why i was so relieved that it was a just movie that banked on its strength to deliver something of a spectacle.

Yeah it is the most fanservicey movie out there. Gogeta and Broly in the same movie? Thats the type of shit i saw in Budokai Tenkaichi 3's intro and thought, " this is way over the top". (lmao , i still giggle at that memory after all this broly movie shit went down)

Anyway , the people who distanced from the franchise or do not like the modern appeal of dragon ball or thinks this franchise is one of the worst out there ever along with Fairy Tail. This movie aint gonna attract any of them unless they dive in this with an open mind and shoving aside their previous biases for 1 hour and 40 minutes . And thats not bad at all , there are things to get angry about Dragon Ball plenty . i realized that when i stopped being into this franchise at one point.

But now that im a fan of this franchise again and get the strength and appeal of it , its the best goddamn time ever. This movie proves it for me

TL;DR:- If you are a modern Dragon Ball fan , this movie is the greatest thing out there and for others its not really that special but still a fun time nonetheless .

I'm not some reviewer and i can't even a write good enough review to make people read this manga . I will admit that these short 32 chapters were one of the most fun things that i have read in quite a while .

I felt ;
Grateful
Blessed
Overly joyed to the point that makes me question myself that why i didn't start reading Romcom manga earlier . ( I guess i should be regretting a bit but who cares , this gem of a manga is a literal gem)
I think that made it clear that i loved it , if the scores ... didn't already indicate that .

The misunderstandings over misunderstandings that happened over the span of the series was both frustrating and enjoyable . I don't know how to express that in any other way other than to type that twist and turns me go "AHHHHH".... "FAAAK" .. "DAMN IT OUJI ..GET IT ALREADY THAT SHE IS A SHE ,FFS".
Usual girly reaction that girls makes when watching romcom shows . Yeah , pretty bad for the heart.


Should i even mention how adorable Shindou ( the MC ) really is ? Its not even funny how adorable she is .

( Does this even count as a legitimate "review"? I know the answer is a big "NO". Everyone does the normal reviews anyway )

I don't know what Wakabayashi-sensei's (author of Tsuredure Children, yeah) aim was when writing the character of Shindou other than the obvious Cinderella reference but damn she somehow managed to win my heart .

Lets not talk about our Prince/Ouji , he frustrated me to no end during the entire run of the manga. Don't mistake it for me finding him as a bad character ( coz he is not ) but if he was a real person i would smack some sense into him .

Other characters definitely contribute to this manga but if i talk about them on how well they fit in then i would go into Spoiler territory .

Loved the characters , loved how it progress , Didn't welcome the pacing at first but warmed up to it eventually .
Had a great time while reading it and that is seriously an underrated quality that people take for granted most of the time.

No, im not a reviewer just a person who wanted to express how he felt about this particular series .
