As a fan of the original series, with Suwa being my favorite character, this movie was quite the letdown.
What bothered me the most weren't the constant recaps of the anime (despite them being completely skippable), but the insight we got into Suwa's route with Naho.
At some point in the movie, Suwa is reflecting on his actions and says that he pretty much exploited Naho when she was vulnerable and that's the reason the two ended up together. His friends try to snap him out of it by saying he's a nice person and that she fell for him naturally. Ok, I'll take it (not ... a very good reason though)... Then by the end of the movie we see the two of them waking up from the "dream" we just watched. Not only do they seem distant from each other and sad, but Naho just dreamt she had a child with Kakeru, and that she was happy with that... which pretty much confirms what he was saying earlier. Had Kakeru been alive, none of it would've happened. Ouch.

Having that route ruined, at least I'll get to see Suwa move on in the timeline where Kakeru is saved, I thought! Nope.
Suwa's idea of happiness there is seeing Naho and Kakeru together... well, okay. But what about YOUR happiness? He's still alone 10 years later... and is smiling at how close Naho and Kakeru are... talk about NTR.

The best part of the movie was seeing Hagita and Azu finally get together, that was fun.
Animation and sound were pretty much identical to the anime's, not much to say there.
The scene where they're watching the sunset together was nice too, but I consider everything else not worth watching.
