No Game No Life: Zero

This is my favorite anime movie, and it goes well with the amazing series. If I could compare this to a movie series, it would be the Rogue One of the No Game No Life Series! Dark and heartbreaking, this is a must watch for any otaku, young or old. Sora and Shiro, the protagonists of the series, are mirrored in Riku and Shuvi. In this heart-wrenching movie, we find out about the origins of Disboard and why Imanity, considered the weakest of the Exceed, is in fact the smartest and the one that conquered the world.

Before I get into what I thought of the show, I'd like to let fans of the show know that this is a prequel to the show. For the most part it has nothing to do with the show itself, except that this is about how the world of games was created.

On its own though, I'd say that this movie is pretty good. The beginning is a bit messy, but once it gets everything sorted out, the overall story is good. The animation is pretty great, along with the voice acting and characters. This movie as a whole isn't great, but it has a lot of redeeming qualities and I would recommend it.

No Game No Life: Zero, is a movie that is adapted from the popular light novel created by Yuu Kamiya, named No game no life which published in April 25, 2012, which also have ten volume in total (right now), or more precisely it is the adaptation from volume 6 of the light novel, No game No life. The movie is directed by Atsuko Ishizuka.

The movie take place, 6000 years before the main time line, in the midst of war, between 15 Gods, to find out who is the "True God". In this movie, it explored many concepts, that just makes the story more interesting. The world building in this whole movie is amazing, with the short time of 2 hour, they expand the world and the history, culture in this world, while also, progressing with the main story, without the viewer even knowing, which is amazing. Also, with just approximately 2 hours, they have made an amazing, and captivating cast, full of character that you can somewhat relate too, and the character development in the movie was so amazing, as you can see the character grow from the first time you met these characters and how much they have developed since then. The story flow is so nice. The animation of the movie is also outstanding, and so captivating. Also, I personally think that, the movie has something special, it is difficult to write, but I guess it is so captivating and moving that when the character feels stress, anger, sadness, joy, the viewer also feels it, and I think that not many movies could do that to viewer. The OST/ soundtrack of the movie is also outstanding.

This was an absolute roller coaster of emotion in this movie, and I absolutely loved it and would watch this move again. I recommend this move to anyone, but more over I recommend this to the people who have watch the series, No Game No Life and I would personally suggest people that haven't watch the movie should watch the TV show, named No game No life first then comeback to this movie because it will make more sense.

Insane story and characters. This thing is creative, weird, and fun to watch. Even so, very little about this movie makes any real sense. Not bad, but I couldn't call this movie great.

Out standing animation, amazing soundtrack, incredible story and characters, and amazing voice acting.
