At last, after almost 9 months from the original release, this movie was subtitled. This movie was honestly really cute, and really gave off that Natsume vibe! So, here I am with my very first review.
The story: 8
The story was well executed and easy to follow. It was fun to see how all the different aspects that don't seem connected slowly intertwine to make one whole story. Now it wasn't anything mind boggling, but it still left me feeling warm on the inside when the story was over.
Art: 8
The art for this movie is better than what we saw in season 6, even with season
...
6 having much improved art compared to the very first season. It's great watching the art for this show get better over time! It was also consistent, and it didn't feel like there were too many short cuts, or still images. Although the style can be simple, it's still well animated.
Sound: 9
I have always loved the soundtrack for this show. Whether it's the nostalgia, or the fact that I will easily listen to just about anything, I have always loved this shows soundtrack. The movie was no different and the soundtrack felt just like it always did. I also loved the song Remember by Usu at the end of the movie. A must listen!
Character: 7
The characters were also quite good. Natsume was, well, Natsume. And Nyanko was as silly as ever and made me laugh! But I would like to focus on the movie only characters! The red youkai was particularly interesting to me, and I honestly thought his personality was kinda cute. Mukuo was likeable, and hearing about his life made me feel for him. He was not the most interesting, but likeable nonetheless. I liked his clumsiness! Yorie was sweet, and i'm always a sucker for sweet elderly anime characters. I didn't really connect with her as much as I wanted, but she was good despite that. I loved the 3 Nyankos, the were utterly ADORABLE! It was nice seeing everyones interactions! Yuuki was also a character I found interesting, even if he didn't that big of a part.
Enjoyment: 7
My overall enjoyment was a 7! Which for me, is good! It didn't connect with me as other stories from Natsume Yuujinchou did, but it was still very good! It did leave that heartwarming feeling that I wanted, but I think I expected for that feeling to be stronger. Thats not to say it was a bad movie, though. It was very good!
Overall: 8
Overall, the movie is worth it to watch, especially if you are a Natsume fan like me! Hopefully my first review was helpful to some people! Thanks for reading!
