Since the release of the Saekano film last year I have anxiously been waiting for the film to be released in the US checking every website possible hoping that the sub had already been uploaded somewhere. Finally after a year later I got the chance to watch the movie sadly no theatrical release and I am glad to say that it was gratifying to finally experience the conclusion to a series I adore so much. Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata or Saekano: How to Raise A Boring Girlfriend was my introduction to the harem/romance genre and it quickly became one of my favorite anime as I began to indulge myself more into the medium. Now Saekano is by no means a masterpiece or a flawless series but it is still quite impressive overall. The story is well executed and entertaining the characters are charming the animation and soundtrack are great and overall it is really enjoyable to watch. Spoilers For the Film Ahead Utaha Eriri. It doesnt matter though because in the end I enjoyed watching the journey of these characters and their growth from start to finish. It was a definitely a wonderful experience. If there is one thing that stayed consistent throughout this adaptation it is the animation and soundtrack which were well done. The animation is clean and fluid while the visuals are alluring and beautiful. The music is similar to that of the anime with some notable tracks. The movie gives us a couple of new songs such as an Icy Tail songicy tail YO a new Megumi song ULTIMATE and the ending song Glory Days performed by Luna Haruna. All Saekano songs are memorable straight bangers and catchy as hell including the OP and EDs. If it werent for the first seasons ending Colorful I might have never even watched Saekano in the first place. And I almost forgot about the voice acting. Just like the first two seasons the VAs gave an amazing performance bringing out the emotion and truly instilling life into their characters and making them even more lovable. Now for the criticism. Was Saekano:Fine a perfect film? While I do like the movie a lot truthfully it could have been better. One major issue I had with the film is the pacing. It honestly felt rushed at times which made certain transitions between scenes awkward and scenes that should have left more of an impact on the viewer are not as strong. Although I have not read the source material I have skimmed through parts of it though it is obvious that much of the light novel content was cut to fit things into the timespan of the movie and the parts cut out might have been interesting to see on screen. I cant help but think that a third season might have been a better option. Maybe the story would have been executed better or maybe not. Who knows. Am I disappointed though? Not at all. As I mentioned in the beginning I am satisfied with the movie and how things turned out. Not to mention that Clover Works added an extra 10 mins or so of anime original content after the credits which was great so I guess that makes up for the missing LN content lol. Saekano was one of the first series I watched when I was just starting to get into anime so it is always gong to be special to me no matter what. It is nowhere near perfect and it is definitely not for everyone but I do believe this anime is kind of overlooked by people for whatever reason it may be and there are certainly those who are missing out. There is undoubtedly people who would genuinely enjoy this anime. This review has gone on longer than I expected so to sum everything up Saekano is an excellent anime which I appreciate wholeheartedly and I think the movie was a pleasurable and rewarding conclusion to the series. After all its got everything that most anime viewer want. A good plot comedy nice art and animation great songs excellent waifus and all in all its an entertaining and fun show. And to those who are still questioning if they should watch Saekano go for it.
