If that wasn’t bad enough, the production quality is also miserable. A lot of shots are reused from season one when available. Otherwise, the show uses a lot of still shots during big moments and narrows down to the smallest amount of animation possible for Nagi’s big shots. There’s also this irritating cut to a blue flame that is on the screen during Nagi’s reflections instead of literally anything happening during the game.
There is some merit to the perspective of Nagi during this season. The movie ends with the viewer having a better understanding of his relationship to Reo and soccer itself. I wouldn’t advise anyone waste money seeing this in theaters. Rather, consider picking this up if you need a refresher on season one before the next season later this year airs. Because, again, this is just a recap movie.
