The Quintessential Quintuplets: La Película

I have zero knowledge about the series and after watching this in theaters, I will never bother to check it out. This was only made for weebs and horny teenage boys who want to fantasize about multiple unrealistic anime girls being obsessed with them. The 13 year old boy brigade that invaded the row in front of me couldn't stop making groping gestures at the screen and jerk off motions to each other throughout. I was literally embarrassed to be sitting and watching this. Storywise, it was one of the hardest anime movies I've ever tried to follow. Lots of exposition that felt neither romantic or heartfelt. Just excuses to be in love with the same man that meant next to nothing. Misogynistic would be the word that comes to mind when I was watching this, throughout the entire runtime. And worst of all, it was completely BORING!!!! There was absolutely no need for this to be OVER 2 HOURS LONG!!! I honestly cannot believe they released this in American theaters, and I further cannot believe I sat through it all hoping it would get better or have any point to make. Spoiler Alert, it doesn't. I mean, I thought Disney was the ones trying to groom kids with their latest venture, but this is indefinitely worse. Unless you're a fan of the series(not sure if it's comparable or not, never seen it and never will) or a horny 13 year old, I could not recommend more that you stay away from this piece of trash.

Based on the well-known manga series, "The Quintessential Quintuplets Movie" is a romantic comedy about familial ties. The film, which was directed by Kaori, tells the tale of Fuutarou Uesugi and the Nakano quintuplets as they negotiate romantic relationships and sibling rivalry. The film embodies the essence of the adored manga, showcasing the quintuplets' distinct personalities through endearing acting and a striking aesthetic. The connection between the cast members-especially the gifted actresses-gives the characters more nuance and raises the story's overall enjoyment factor. "The Quintessential Quintuplets Movie" is a charming and approachable romantic comedy that perfectly captures the spirit of adolescent love and the delight of realizing one's own emotions.

As someone who's been invested in the series from the start, I was nervous about the ending, but oh man, did they nail it. Fuutarou choosing the right girl had me screaming 'FINALLY!' - she's the one who truly got him from day one and supported him every step of the way. I loved how the movie wrapped up all the character arcs and plot threads, it was so satisfying. The animation was gorgeous, the music was perfect, and the voice acting was top-notch. I'm so glad I got to experience this series from start to finish. If you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and watch it. Trust me, you won't regret it. 10/10, would watch again and again.

Great movie, it definitely wasn't what I expected but it was satisfying nonetheless. If you like the anime then you owe it to yourself to see the series conclusion. I walked in saying that if it didn't turn out the way I wanted it I would be disappointed, but the fact that I enjoyed it speaks to the quality of the movie as a whole. It has some touching moments and despite it being on the longer side it went by a little faster than I wanted it to.

I haven't gone to the movies in years, but this is a trip I don't regret making and I'll be buying the DVD when it releases.

No spoilers. I saw the only review was a non-fan of the series so I thought I'd give something that might be more useful to those looking for opinions.

The movie was okay. It gives you the closure you're wanting for each of the five girls, and leads into that closure with a heaping pile of the drama you know and love from the series.

It's because of this that it's so unfortunate that it was a little bloated. It know it's adapting the final few chapters from the manga, so it's hard to say where the blame lies, but it feels like it spends a bit too much time getting where it needs to go at times it felt like it was stalling just for the sake of it. I think if this stuff all happened in a regular episode I wouldn't bat an eye, but sitting down for a movie, you sort of hope for a more focused, polished experience, and they missed the mark a little on that.

That's not to say I didn't enjoy the movie. As a fan of the series I was happy with how the ending was handled (even if my top girls didn't come out on top :c). It has some great moments that let the characters shine, which is why I loved the series in the first place, but I don't think it hit the heights of the second season for me.

Basically, if you like the show, you'll be happy you saw this and experienced the end, but don't expect anything too crazy.

Also for those of you wondering, Uesugi does make his choice with some time left in the movie, so you do get a sort of epilogue for how everyone deals with his choice, and he does pick one girl, no cop outs here. Even if he didn't pick the one I wanted, I think they did a good job of selling why he picked the one he did.
