If I had to tell someone if they should or should not watch this movie I would say no. It is a decent way to spend your time if you have nothing else to do but there are far more fun things to do.
The character design immediately screams ghibli into your face, the bg and animation is rather good. You will definitely enjoy the visual aspects of this, even the cgi blends in well. Music didn't do much for me, although I feel this way in 90% of all anime.
Let's get into the main parts of this movie though: the characters and the plot. I
...
would like to know why someone thought that the basic plot of it would make an enjoyable movie. Without spoiling anything: It's self insert isekai and the 2 male mcs like the same girl. Yeah, we all have seen this a billion times so what did this anime do to set itself apart? By making the characters act annoying and unlogical. What I liked about it was that one of the mcs is disabled, he's in a wheelchair and in the beginning it shortly shows the daily struggles involved with this. This was probably my favourite part of the characters/ story. After the interesting beginning it very quickly got very bad. All of the characters make absolutely nonsensical decisions, which could be excused it it was once or twice but it's almost as if they try to make it as stupid as possible. Once they get transported to the other world they just dissociate and seem to forget or not care about the things that happened minutes ago, instead they take it easy. This is where it just gets boring because we have seen this a billion times already. Also the one male mc is super strong and smart bc he's our self insert character. Then suddenly without giving us any believeable reason one of them starts to act even more illogically and the entire plot gets ridiculous. I am not someone who likes to drop shows, especially movies but at this point I was just on my phone and texting, pondering if I should turn it off. I stuck with it out of lazyness to get up and at around half or 2/3 of the movie it gets pretty good and interesting. I think this just seems like this because of the contrast to the horrible parts shortly before though. The ending pulls some kind of plot twist out of the hat that was not set up at all and felt really unnatural.
To sum it up I don't regret watching it but I also would say that there are better things to do with your time.
