After 2 seasons of these lovely group of friends and their daily lives in high school, full of fun and happy moments that made the viewers smile to no end, now we reach this short movie that continues the story and fleshes out some of the main characters of this simple, yet heartwarming story. While there is a school festival moving the plot, this movie focuses in Aya(ya) and her memories with Shinobu and Youko when they were still in middle school, putting focus on how the three friends spent their days together preparing for the entrance exam for highschool. Even though Karen and Alice took aminor role in this movie compared to the screentimes they got in the main series, they were still as loveable as always and had their shining moments, Not to mention, the way how the backstory of Aya was executed definitely compensated for the lack of the two blondies.

The art of the movie was similar to the main series, focusing like always in putting a lot of focus in showing the various expressions of the girls, in the sound department, like most slice of life shows, this movie provides solid background songs that add to the emotions of the different scenes, but in the end tend to not be that memorable, something that happens here as well, the opening and ending themes kept the happy and sweet feelings that the ones from the main series had.

As a Kiniro Mosaic fan, this movie was as good as I hoped it to be and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. I can't recommend it enough to any viewer that enjoyed the previous two seasons of this lovable series.
