I'll preface by saying I read the light novels before watching the movie.
I'm going to have to bash on this one.

This chapter in the light novel was originally pretty fanservice-y, but I decided to forgive it since I figured it was to let the viewer relax from the mindfuck that was chapter 5. Also, it could be serious at times, and in her defense Azaka actually was much more mature in the light novel than in the movie. But the movie I could just not take seriously at all. They made Azaka into a moe imouto-type character and changed around a large part of the ... plot, so much that it almost threw me off completely. The original chapter in the light novel was also actually somewhat relevant to the overarching plot, while in the movie they spent like 15 seconds on that, didn't even explain it properly, and just went straight back to Azaka.

Granted, the animation quality and sound are as good as always (actually not really; Azaka's voice actress pisses me off). But the plot in the movie was god-awful.

Do yourself a favor and just read the light novel translation for this one. It's incomparably better.
