As of the time writing this post i have watched it 3 times.
The first time i liked it, but did not fully understood the message & subtleties.
The second time i loved it, understood it way better & also cried.
The third time fully understood it, and would give it an 11/10 if that were possible.

The body language & sounds, & OST are the strongest points of this film.

You can watch this movie as a Stand alone film, but .. i felt it better because i knew
quite a bit both nozomi & Mizore from before.

I gave 7 because story was boring and drama was on elementary school level. Like can't they just talk about their problems?

What you say is enough for me to tell that your perception of nozomi & mizore as people, as who they are is incomplete or wrong.
There's enough elements and clues in Season 2 of Eupho to get why is so hard for them to speak heart to heart.
& also ... you probably are not the target audience for euphonium or this movie...

Yes, eupho is full of yuri bait, but ... quality yuri bait, unlike your average anime.
But i would recommend to watch eupho before the movie, it gives you more context
on the 2 main characters of the movie.

quality yuri bait is still yuri bait, if the two characters don't get together and get NTR then i can't take the romance of your show seriously

The only romances that "exist" in hibike euphonium are unrequited loves from reina to the sensei, shinichi to kumiko and hazuki to shinichi.
You can't call it NTR since what you see as yuri (bait) in the anime does not have the romance element at all.

It's very boring, very slow burner show. Even though I adore this movie, even consider the best KyoAni works just behind Koe no Katachi. For first time I watch this movie, I thought the duration of the movie is 2,5 hours but in reality it's just 1,5 hours

Maybe i'm biased towards this movie because i can really connect with the problem mizore and nozomi are having... anyways to each their own.

I understand why lot of people hate his movie and don't deserve 8 score. Some people hate this movie because "uneventful" and "Just talk to each other". Again, I understand why they hate it.
In reality, some people especially Asians don't have courage to express their feelings because they afraid maybe their feelings can hurt peoples, so they can't. I speak like this because I'm weak hearted Asian

That doesn't mean that some should place themselves on a pedestal for enjoying artistic stuff more.I tried to watch this movie,and I really disliked it because it was an absolute snorefest.Trust me,it's pretentious to think like that.

I never said they should. I was just stating a fact which you just proved by calling this movie a snorefest. This movie is breathtaking even if you consider visuals and music alone. Excluding story here because it's obvious that people who love hibike enjoyed it more than people who watched it as a standalone movie.

It wasn't directed at you to be honest.The comment was more directed at the people in this thread that chose to use the word normie and shit taste to justify how they have better taste than people who wouldn't like this movie.

Hah, I just read the opinion that their relationship is toxic if it's a film about friendship and thoughtful and meaningful if they are lovers. I would not be surprised if 90% of the fandom of this franchise watches it only because of the illusion of romance in it.

Absolutely agree. This movie struck something with me. I think the very nature of it's slow burn, subtle drama, and "child" problems is exactly what makes it hit so hard. Each character felt so real. And the final song, oh man, the final song.

Same can be said for all of Sound Euphonium.
"Whether you're sad, you're hurt, or empty, you have to keep playing."

Even if narratively they did not mean the "yuri bait", visually they did, completely.

In Euphonium we have some straight couples a lot of talking about straight dating, guys,and everything else, and well that have noting to do with lesbians!! And sure the girls are behaving kind of gay but it never gets a chance to shine and are in the background!!.Only reason why its there is to lure in more viewers= Yuri Bait


Liz to Aoi Tori on the other hand the lesbians are in the spotlight!! Its their show and heterosexuality is in the background, Some people on MAL seems to have low knowledge about Yuri, and think the girls need to kiss otherwise they are only friends and its not a Yuri !! And that is wrong, Yuris are often subtle and uses strong symbolism rather then kissing girls!!


I love Liz to Aoi Tori its a great movie! The art is lovely and music are top notch!!! Everything works very well and i gave it 10/10 Even if my favourite ship didn't sail of in the sunset!!!

I gave it a seven but that still is within the ★★★★☆ strata.

Regardless of ranking though, I cried at the end.

This should've been locked a while ago and since the recent posts proved it:

Threads about ranking and/or scores just encourage flame wars between people who liked the show and people who disliked it. They don't promote any kind of actual discussion.
