Bungo Stray Dogs: Dead Apple

This is they most best and greatest anime that I've watched , all of the seasons was very awesome (season 1 , 2 , 3 )

Characters: 10/10 Story Plot: 3/10 -> Cannot comment anything because the story plot was not what i expected and the movie went crashing down to the "should-be" climax part.

Watching the movie is a must to help close out some storylines and build the base for the 3rd season, but I was left a little disappointed after a great buildup.

Regardless the important part is the war between an occult based detective agency and the mafia running the seedy underbelly of the city continues!

Pros:

• Strong Characters, even the cliched stereotypes are amusing and well done.
• Actions have consequences.
• Redemption is possible, but it's not easy.
• "Good guys" and "Bad guys" are well balanced (in comparison to each other).
• Excellent Intro/Closing music.
• Resolution on some story arcs, buildup for more to come.
• Main protagonist finally gets over some of his fears.

Cons:

• Movie's ending feels rushed, up until then it was very strong.
• Diamond shapes pupils and irises are not my thing.
• Some shortcuts in the animation when dealing with characters seem from a distance, not a fan.
• Inconsistent animation, much of it is well done, but some distracting exceptions.

Overall look forward to a 4th season if it happens.

Started off slow and ended sloppily. The motivation for the characters was strained and not thought out, not much perspective: the scene angles were very boring, the action scenes were slightly better than the series but not by much and the script was lacking in overall character-building conversations. The only positives to this whole movie was more backstory for Atsushi, the introduction of a new villain, slightly higher quality animation compared to the series and more supporting character spotlight on Chuuya, Akutagawa and Kyouka. So overall, the movie didn't totally bomb, but it still lacked in multiple areas that would've made this much more appealing and engaging to watch.

The plot was great and the characters are so colourful.
