ART: 10/10
This is the best 3D animation in an anime I've seen in my life, the 2D backgrounds and scenery were on part, if not better than from movies like in, or similar to Kimi no Na Wa. This movie is definitely a graphical wonder.
SOUND: 10/10
One of the main things in the movie is singing and music, and trust me when i say they made the sound part on par with the animation, just captivating.
STORY and CHARACTERS: 7/10
The story and the characters aren't really the strongest points of this movie. It's not a movie that's meant to be watched multiple times to understand the deep meaning behind it or to think about it for days after watching about the complex and deep story in it. No - it's a movie about singing, it's meant to be felt, not analysed, so all in all, the story and characters aren't the most important parts, so it's not really necessary for them to be the best.
ENJOYMENT and OVERALL SCORE: 9/10
I was surpised to see MAL rating at only ~7.5. That's probably because people try to look for deep meanings, perfect story pacing and perfect characterisation, sometimes forgetting that some things aren't meant to be overanalysed but are just meant to be enjoyed and felt in the moment.
The climax of the anime was just amazing, that scene alone was definitely a 10/10, but summing everything up, in total i would say this movie is a very strong 9/10.
