An overall satisfying anime.

The good:

Illyasviel's further development in this series. Not only is she like an Angel of Fire, beautiful on the outside with the prettiest eyes in anime (I love the art style in general here) and a modest and kind heart but she as the story goes, she will continue on her road of being truly heroic, which could be seen partly in 3rei.

The story itself is decent, appropriate for a movie length. It does repeat some patterns we see in other action anime but nothing to complain about.

Character development in relation to every other character is well thought-out as well with surprises around the corners.

The bad:

If you are an anime veteran like me, you'll notice the typical tropes and mannerisms that the movie is not free off. If you're quite new to anime, you won't.

Another thing to mention the elephant in the room: this movie is completely sterile in regards to fanservice. For better or worse depending on your point of view but I enjoyed the edginess for which the series has originally become more known (and controversial). Don't expect even any yuri. No "mana transfers". Shame on you. Now I'll be going to watch some Fate based ecchi... I mean to check how the stock markets are doing
