This movie gets weird

 

[Line_HTX]

YO, THE MILITARY???

 

[Imperial Bishop]

"I am not Shun. I am his evil twin broher, Zhun."

 

[ramoisdead]

Wut?

WTF is going on with the whole army brigade???

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Lens flare everywhere

 

[B-Dubs]

Well, this escalated quickly.

 

[Schadenfreude]

What's up with the random Spanish words? The claves? Agua?

 

[Zonic]

I just did a quick check on Wikipedia. Apparently Asuna is 16.

Yeah... that's weird. She and her class all look 12.

Yeah, uh, no, I'm calling bull on that. Especially since they gave us that bath scene. She & her class do NOT look high school.

 

[Mik317]

Well, this escalated quickly.

seems to be a theme with this movie so far.

 

[Korigama]

So much for not straying from the path home.

Come on, seriously?

*has a look*

Hm, says around 15, so close enough...still older than what I was thinking (12 at most sounded about right to me as well).

 

[RagnarokX]

That guy is much better at falling off cliffs.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Damn government. Always meddling in supernatural stuff.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Yo what


I knew the romance happened way too soon, it was a red heirring

 

[Line_HTX]

LEAVING THE BASE WAS A HUGE MISTAKE.

I like how they were using the chopper gunner to fire at them, like what

 

[Raxus]

Oh god i just realized where i heard this girls voice before. Shes the main girl from the Ghost Stories anime!

This explains so much.

The moment someone says 'bueno' while licking their lips I am outta here.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Yeah, uh, no, I'm calling bull on that. Especially since they gave us that bath scene. She & her class do NOT look high school.

Huh this the reverse of what anime usually does.
Must be the artsyle

 

[Line_HTX]

Tom appears to be facing a big monster from Agartha too.

 

[zedreamcast]

Huh this the reverse of what anime usually does.
Must be tge artsyle

Nah anime has a lot of 50 year olds that look 10

 

[Seda]

Yeah, uh, no, I'm calling bull on that. Especially since they gave us that bath scene. She & her class do NOT look high school.

High schoolers can look still really young, younger than you think or remember (have you been in a high school recently?) but the entire class here looked like middle school at most. Just the artstyle I guess.

(I taught in a high school for a year about a year ago)

 

[Line_HTX]

Moving rocks.

 

[Zonic]

Despite only seeing two other Shinkai films, this is probably his weakest. Not to say it's bad by any means (& the dub is alright, especially by Sentai standards), but it feels like the pacing goes from slow to super fast at times.

 

[Hellwarden]

Are these guys supposed to be Americans?

 

[Line_HTX]

Gatekeeper.

 

[BBboy20]

*living in a post-Ground Zeroes world*

X O F.

 

[Raxus]

Hey totodile.

 

[Zonic]

so who's the keymaster

 

[foxuzamaki]

Is it just me or had voice acting suddenly improved? Lilenthr VAs finally settled onto their roles

 

[Schadenfreude]

Even has an environmental message. This movie is so Ghibli.

 

[Raxus]

I have to put him to sleep!

*stabs him multiple times*

 

[RagnarokX]

When the clavice does that red burst it reminds me of Secret of NIMH

DansGame

 

[Hellwarden]

It's kinda cute with its stubbly legs.

 

[Crocodile]

It's probably because I'm tired and only half following this but I don't entirely know what's going on

 

[Zonic]

"ancient whale that was thought to be extinct"

"KILL IT"

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Thats a whale? I guess

 

[ckohler]

Courage of the heart is very rare. The stone has a power when it's there.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

"Gun violence against children! Yeah!"

 

[Line_HTX]

Betrayed and spoiled by TV captions.

 

[Seda]

I think like this movie wants to keep things a secret for the viewer (who are these boys, this place, the people after them) in attempt to keep things interesting (like a mystery) but I feel like there's almost not enough information given to the viewer to entice our attention in the first place.

 

[Mik317]

no wai

 

[Schadenfreude]

He already said like 5 times that he's not Shu.

 

[Zonic]

Oh hey, the teacher.

......just like the closed captions mentioned.....

 

[RagnarokX]

So she's Princess Daisy! King Koopa is gonna merge the dimensions!

 

[ramoisdead]

What the fuck is going on? The substitute teacher??

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Betraylton
oh it was the teacher
Ok

That was my main problem with the movie

Spoiler

And I still felt that way by the time it was over

 

[BBboy20]

Silver camo? They are XOF.

 

[Line_HTX]

My brother is dead.
