In all of its shortness I would say that this had all the possibilities to be great, but sadly ended up being just fine.
There was so much potential and talent in this ONA that it makes me even more disappointed that this fell flat almost from the beginning. The overall story is very poor but could've been made decent with some changes, like putting more thought to the overall reason why this whole scenario was happening. I also found the overuse of quoting "My little mermaid" redundant and lost its impactfulness very fast.
The art and sound of Bubble is amazing and was what still
...
gave me a lot of enjoyment while watching this. Some scenes were like straight from a music video which makes me think that you almost get the same enjoyment than watching Eve's music videos with great art.
There was couple scenes that I quite enjoyed but it was all either due to the beautiful art or a nice action scene with good sound design, which wouldn't have really needed the context of this movie at all. Maybe if this was either 20-30 minutes shorter or the time had been used to make the story and world building overall better this could've been 8 or 9 to me, but I cannot give this more than 6 with the lack of substance in the story.
So if you want to watch beautiful art and good music this is an okay watch, however there is probably other movies that have those with better story.
I personally knew I wanted to watch this because of Eve's opening and this having Mamoru Miyano as a voice actor. So I got what I came for. Overall this was a lot of wasted potential but if not anything else it is pretty.
