still kinda mad i didnt get that pochita bucket

it was a dude sitting a few seats in front of me and he just had it sitting on the table, s*** was calling my name like the green goblin mask

Man that movie was good asf

The ost was really good

My theatre was mad boring but two folks had a cute Aki & Angel cosplay

Maybe I should've cosplayed

Putting them on game early

Saw a chick cosplaying as Reze on my way out.

And the ost was bonkers. Love how they gave this its own opening sequence

This s*** was very very hard

lol look at The Weeknd’s story

10/10

Just decided to reread rest of part 2 after watching this
Just a one of a kind story

GOAT

Lol funny enough this was the tweet that prompted my og post that CD got crazy attention to detail

"For wallpaper purposes"

Chapter 64 and I’m lost af ngl

Was season 2 taking so long cuz they had to get this movie out?

What don’t you get?

Actually I’m on 68 lol. The pacing is so fast it’s throwing me off a bit. Honestly bro I think I need to re-read everything after 60 or so. At the time, I was reading this so sporadically and thats probably it. Not to mention I’m stupid af

finished part 1 of the manga. that was absolute cinema. part 2 started off damn good as well.

I'm going to bump up my rating because I keep thinking about the OST and the pool scene

I haven't started the manga yet, but it's like Denji may appear to be a gooner on the surface yet deep down all he really wants is a deeper connection and affection. Love and attention from another human is something that he has been deprived of his entire life.

Immediate thoughts post watch

At the start of the movie with power having those tired ass anime sound effects and way over exaggerated expressions and s*** I was like ohhhhh boy here we go but thankfully it wasn’t too present outside of that first 10 mins or so. If they started doing gag faces and bullshit nonstop like demon slayer I would’ve been pissed

The characters look worse. There is just no way you can deny that, like outside of fight scenes they just look flatter and less detailed. Makima in particular is so much worse compared to season 1. She looks a lot younger too, basically looks the same age as denji in the movie. She felt more mature and menacing in season 1. Power looks worse too. Way more cartoony

I’ll take off my season 1 cape now

Pool scene was beautiful. Reze was portrayed amazingly well and voiced spot on. The festival montage was another great moment with the soundtrack accompanying it.

I wish we got like another 10 mins of slice of life. Not saying it was too little but some more would’ve been so nice.

Then we get to the action scenes. This is where the movie shines most but it should. It’s a movie, it SHOULD be hand drawn masterclass and it is. The initial transformation of bomb, the way she attacks and fights, beam and denji team up, typhoon. It was all so damn hard man. The first person shots were crazy too.

They brought back one of the S1 EDs when Denji and Bomb were talking back and forth and it felt out of place to me. The one time where I felt the OST didn’t fit very well

The random ass volume cover splash art killed me. That was odee forced and felt like a “damn here yall go” to the manga stans crying about S1. Same with the multicolor explosions. Random as hell and I could’ve done without it personally.

Fight climax was amazing. Bomb fights so tuff. End of the movie just reaffirmed how bad Makima and power look now. Smh Makima got a crazy NERF man she ain’t even sexy anymore. Bland as hell.

Overall great movie. Hopefully the rest of part 1 has this much money and effort put into it.

man i hate when cartoon characters act like cartoon characters

you don't need looney tunes sound effects and gag faces in every anime

we can dare to be different and step outside the box as we approach 2026

"different"
