I don't always write review, but I feel like I have to for this one.

No Game No Life: Zero tells the story of how Disboard became a world where games works as its law and foundations. And the world didn't actually just became like that simply because the God of Disboard, Tet, feels like it.

Story: 10/10
It's truly marvelous. I can't really tell how great the story is without spoiling. In this movie you will find out the origins of the rules of Disboard, the origins of Aschente word, how Stephanie's family became the ruler of Imanity, the ... reason why humans in Disboard called Imanity, and many more.

Art: 10/10
Madhouse, I think that should be all the explanation you need regarding the art and animations.

Sound: 10/10
It's really amazing, especially in theaters. The background music really boosts the feels. The ending theme, 「THERE IS A REASON」, sang by Konomin, it's magnificent and I can't stop listening to it while remembering the movie. It's just incomparable to 「This game」.

Character: 9/10
"Is it going to be another Sora and Shiro pair?" is what I thought before watching the movie but NO. Riku and Shuvi is wayyyy better than those two (IMO, of course). Riku is a loser, unlike Sora but he is more the serious type and a try hard. Shuvi is more understanding than Shiro (she's also cuter and a bit more grown up). Corone is similar to Stephanie but she's less annoying and has a grown up attitude (and chest). I really feel bad for Corone in the end. To be honest, those 3's screen time is so much that I forgot the story also has other characters. But they didn't really show too much regarding the other characters. Other than that, Shuvi and Riku's development is the main highlight here, so it makes a 9.

Enjoyment: 10/10
Oh, I really enjoy this so much that if a friend of mine who hasn't watched it asked me to accompany him, I'd go. One fact: the enjoyment of watching it in the theater isn't the same as when you watch it in your phone/computer/TV (idk about home theaters though), so I would really recommend you to watch it on the theater while it's still on. Epic battles, feels scenes, fanservice, and a bit o' clichéd comedy, NGNL:0 got it covered.

Overall: 10/10
Thanks to this movie, now I really need Season 2 ASAP. I doubt Riku and Shuvi will be there but, at least we get another glimpse at the world that Riku and Shuvi worked hard on saving.
