| lol I dont know if I liked or hated it Its very difficult for me to see everything in a different universe because the original Eureka Seven Anime is my number one favorite. Too much plot for 1:55,They coud have made a better movie with less complication Eureka and Renton saved the movie for me 7/10, I dont care ; ( |

| It was a nice movie. |

| That was a nice way of testing out my new computer; couldn't get it playing on my old one. I loved the battle scenes, they kept all the fast-moving motion from the show at least; made it more fun to watch. As a revision, I was rather lost until 2/3rds of the way through, then I just started enjoying it for what it was. 9/10 |
| What a mess! This movie tried to tell too many complicated stories at once, so it ended up with a very confusing and disjointed narrative. Individually, each of the plots alone (mankind facing imminent destruction, Gekko State trying to reach Neverland, Eureka and Renton's conflicted journey) would have been interesting enough to support the entire movie, but they crammed everything into two hours with an incoherent end result. The action sequences looked gorgeous, but a lot of character development was sacrificed to include those flashy scenes. Other than the two leads, everybody else showed no personality, and their only purpose was to move the plot forward. I can't even understand the motivations behind Dominic or Anemone's characters, but I felt annoyed that they played such a vital role in the resolution when they had so little characterization. Overall, the movie lacked structure and depth. Sorry if this sounds like a scathing review, but I saw glimpses of a good movie hidden underneath all its flaws, and that frustrates me a lot. The quality just wasn't what I expected from the Eureka Seven franchise. |

| I thought the series was okay, but I just LOVED the movie. They made such a wonderful movie out of it. :D |
| Just watched it, I have mixed feelings about it. It was really nice to see Eureka Seven's characters, but the whole change of story, the pacing and the density where a little too much. It's hard to care about gekko members' story in only 2 hours of show, and it feels like coming out of nowhere, lacking depth that only a long serie could provide. Well, Mutiner pretty much summarized my thoughts in fact. But all in all, I enjoyed it as a standalone, even if it can't compare with the greatness of the original. |

| Ok, I just finished watching this and I have to agree with the others. You MUST have an open mind and not try to compare this movie against the show too hard. Since I knew this was an alternative version going in I cleared up that problem. So overall as the movie goes, I actually really enjoyed it. The plot change was good enough to keep me watching the whole show. Though the only thing that confused me a bit was the ending (same as the series). Could they have done a better ending? YES. But I guess leaving a somewhat open ending leaves room for all the fanboys to raise up and say what they think happened, while the company who made it doesn't get bashed for having an ending people didn't like. So overall, I liked this movie. It had great plot, although it may be a little too fast for some (luckily I could keep up), and the graphics and fast motion scenes - 15/10! P.S. After having finished the series two days before watching this, I noticed a LOT of scenes that were just kinda copy pasted into this movie. I think I lost track around 16 or so. That was probably the only thing keeping this from being a 10/10 movie. I mean seriously, you have a 2 hour movie with 95% of it new scenes, and yet you still bring back old cut-scenes? Come on really... |

| I saw the movie at Sci-Fi London's Anime All Nighter just a few hours ago, and in comparison to the other movies shown it was pretty bad. I didn't think it was a terrible movie, but I do think it could have been a lot better. The movie is so serious that all of the characters have turned into assholes. The only characters I liked were Dominic and Anemone (who each have about five minutes of screentime and do near to nothing). All of the others were pricks, especially Holland, and what the hell happened to Nirvash? I thought the story dragged on and became repetitive. Every character has at least ten monologues in this film and they keep shoving things down your throat. This movie was pretty pointless and didn't need to be made at all. I'm a little disappointed in Bones, although the animation was good. |
| Eureka look sweet with long hair... anyway it was one of the best anime i have ever seen movie is different story... same hero, same name but... another world... u can not compare movie with anime... cyruz said: Mjaut said: Mjaut said: So, is this prequel to series or not?

| Hmmm. -The parallels with the Evangelion movie are extensive -The rehashed scenes (boomerang through aircraft, that monk + coral girl scene replaced by Gekko crew, etc) were annoying -The pacing was mad, and very poor -The characterisation compared to the series was awful. |
| The vole movie was abit confusing after series for me like Shio said i agree here. |
| My first reaction at the end of the movie... They turned Eureka into a moe blob. DO NOT WANT! But yeah, the movie... It may have been partially disorientation regarding the characters and story, but I felt like my brain spent too much of the movie hurting. It was too hard to follow for what the art and previous story had me expecting. Seeing Hap being such an asshole was really, really weird. |
| what a trainwreck o_0 CRY MOAR RENTON |
| I thought it was pretty lame compaired to the series. The series is better all round imo. |
| It entertained me, but I didn't like the plot and the way it was developed, I hated the excessive Eureka fanservice (specially in the end), and the new character personalities. Good points: the animation was great. 6/10 (only for the animation) |
   |
| Eureka's new personality was meh. Movie was alright as a whole, still gave it a generous score though since it's new E7 content. |
| Neverland? Seems one of the story writers for bones is a Peterpan fan ;) "Eureka Check this out,no hands." MOST HILARIOUS PART OF THE MOVIE!..lmao Nirvash's big head at the end kinda freaked me out >.> |
 |
| After having watched the movie after the TV series...I agree with the WTF expression :P. I could pretty much get a grip of 90% of what was going on but I'd say that I'm more on a positive side of the movie.I liked pretty much everything [Knowing that it was supposed to be ''Another universe story'' and not a continuation(Is that a word lol?)] EXCEPT the Ending. I would have accepted everything but not that.It was just sad seeing Eureka completely BLANK and made completely different.I'd rather they both died or survived and lived happily with memories of her (Tell me it's not possible to live happily after someone you like died lol).Still, it was almost as good as the TV series so I'l rate it 9/10 ^^,Since I rated the TV series 10/10. |
Apparantly Kimi to Boku will always be my last-anime-watched, until you check my profile :3~     |
| Interesting Movie. "Eureka ...Look No Hands"XDD |
 |
| Waited for this movie for years since the series ended where I expected this movie to be a continuation of the ending of the series. Like how Eureka and Renton meet up with his Grandfather and the children, fight new enemies etc. Instead I get a poor, poor movie which doesn't make any sense to me throughout, all the characters we completely different and is a trainwreck overall. Still rated it highly because I'm a diehard Eureka seveN fan but I'm really, really disappointed. |

| I thought the movie would be better then what it was.. what made me dislike it was the fact that they used scenes from the anime in the movie that just made me face palm. You could also totally tell that this movie was rushed. I only like this movie because of the begining where Renton and Eureka were little and Nirvash was like a little pet. But in the middle of the movie everything went downhill. from then i only liked it for the scenes of Renton and Eureka together. The ending for me was okay only for the fact that Eureka had long hair :3 overall i gave a 6 for it unfortunately. >:( |
| This could have been better if it was a multi-episode OVA. Much, much, much, much better. As much as I loved the fluidly animated Itano Circus sequences, the eyecandy of this movie just doesn't make up for the incoherence of the plot - and it shouldn't have to. What was the plot about? There was so many sub-plots - plenty of them weren't fleshed out nor at least briefly explained - that I couldn't discern what exactly was what to piece together the overarching story of the movie. Despite the gratuitous amounts of exposition the plot still made little sense - it still jumped from one point to another without so much a decent transition. This movie shared Gundam F91's flaw in which it was poorly executed because of the format of its release: something crammed into 115 minutes would not give it justice. |
    |
| I enjoyed this movie...sure there was some reused animation but I didn't mind (It's good animation after all). Perhaps a lot more people would've have liked this movie if there was no reused animation and if there were new characters rather than using the same character designs from the show. The only other thing I would have to say is maybe they could have spent an extra 10 minutes on the background of the plot, especially if someone who hasn't seen the series wanted to watch this. |
| Not a bad movie, just I would have liked a bit more of an explanation, I was excited when I saw the moon because I thought for a few seconds we might actually get a bit of a check in on that universe(we did a bit, I think). Very vague movie but solid, ending theme was bad though. I did like the expansion of Hap's character, made him very dark. Did anyone not see Tallhow being pregnant from the second they said she collapsed anyway. |
| My anime list |
| I'm gonna have to rewatch a few episodes from the show because I do not want this movie to be the thing that comes to mind when I think of Eureka Seven. |

| That was... interesting. Now, while the animation and such was nicely done, the plot didn't make much sense, like most have already pointed out. 5/10 for me ^_- |
| The TV series: 10/10 This film: 8/10 It was by no means bad, but it felt.. different, in an odd way. If you expect that the film has the same feel to it as the series, then you'll be disappointed. Like I said, it isn't bad - but is sure did have the potential to be so much more. |
Mr. Wonsworth, you may NOT eat my scones! |
| In some points, this movie are way better than the TV series, but in others are worse (some moments are forced). I give 9/10 for this. I liked this movie. |
