Review of Hello World
Is it greed? Or is it Guilt? First and foremost this anime is completely presented with a 3DCGI animation style, although most of what we see in the background is 2D. It was properly executed and it took me less than the first 10 minutes to get used to it and it didn't bother me at that time. As you have read the story this is not a simple romance/drama movie, it's a bit more complex than that. I enjoyed the plot turns here and there, but it felt as if the first half of the movie was just a pale try at building a story forthe 3rd part of the movie.
Note: I watched this movie on 4 or 5 sets, therefore this is not a review where you will find Spoilers, Explanations, or Specific Details.
I will cover the main points and the basics to explain why I recommend this anime.
Here are some Pros and Cons:
- I loved the plot twist at the end of the movie and some surprises here and there.
- Although it was an unusual art style, I enjoyed it and didn't feel picky about that style.
- I didn't like how future Naomi Katagaki was capable of going inside the machines so easily without being noticed by the other workers in the lab or the head chief himself or even being denied by the homeostatic system as an intruder.
P.S: Alltale homeostatic system bodies are just like antivirus programs in your computers and Future Naomi Katagaki is the virus.
And for the final rating:
- Story: 7/10. with an outstanding Romance/Love. And a Fantastic Plot Twist that made me rethink my thoughts and decisions about this movie. I was just Happy.
- Animation: 8.5/10. As I already said; it was a 3DCGI but it was really good.
- Characters: 6.5/10. Simply, there were very few characters and the only one that touched me and convinced me with their mentality is the future Naomi Katagaki.
- Sounds: 8.5/10. Every type of sound was well chosen for this movie, OSTs, Ending, Voiceover, and sounds in general.
- Enjoyment: 7/10. Guaranteed, but at a cheap cost.
- Overall: 7.5/10. Good- Very good.
