Viewing Notes
Wow this is way better than I expected. Was hesitant to see this bc almost every time I go to an anime movie based on an ongoing series it’s all confusing as heck and not a good experience for me. But a mutual on my TL asked about the movie and whether it would be okay going in w/o having seen the series and the responses were favorable so I decided to go. Thankfully it was also unlocked for accepting A-List.
Now I’m super glad I went bc this movie is totally my jam and isn’t reliant on prior knowledge of the tv series. Just starts right up and you figure out what’s what as it goes this story. It’s about a teenage kid that is possessed by this demon and as to learn how to harness and control that power. He joins other teenagers with a similar situation (Cursed objects, voice, etc) to battle a real big bad and his army of super-villains trying to take over the world.
Basic hero tropes in anime but done well enough here with some interesting turns and good messages about friendship and whatnot. I really dug it and want to see the series now.
