2/5

With the franchise’s five pop groups not even named as they decide to put on a show, the film just leaves a blanket impression of ultra-pious self-empowerment and aspiration... More’s the pity, as the animation is absolutely top-drawer.

3/5

Without context, character introduction, or defined world lingo, this musical anime is likely to be confusing for anyone who's not already immersed in the video game fandom.

Fans will find it rewarding—full of familiar faces, emotional beats, and strong music. But if you are new, it might leave you cold, like walking into a concert without knowing the songs.

2.5/4

While it’s challenging to maintain investment when the character relationships aren’t well-defined within the film’s diegesis, there’s enough material for hardcore fans to love and for non-fans to at least appreciate what it’s saying.

It truly does feel like it's made for fans of Colorful Stage: The Game... But otherwise you might find, like myself, yourself stranded.

It was good. I didn’t fully understand the story of “SEKAI” because I haven’t actually played colorful stage, but that doesn’t mean this movie wasn’t amazing.
