Melancholic, heartwarming and a bittersweet ending to a lovely franchise, even with it's latest and last installment; Aria proves itself to be the best in Iyashikei genre.
The franchise may have ended for many by the end of Origination, when the main girls became Prime Undine but it still got 3 more installments to expand it's story by giving us a glimpse of future of how all of the characters will be living on, but unlike the previous two, The Benedizione instead focused on Aika and Akira's characters and showed a part of their story from the past, I love Aika's character so I wholly enjoyed this movie.
I won't be lying, but when the 3 new characters were first introduced, I thought that this franchise will never be the same for me but these 3 girls also just fit in super fine.
The background art and over all animation has always been great for this franchise and doesn't fall behind in this movie as well.
