Overall (6.8) - A human samurai, a spear-wielding orc, and a little orphaned elf girl travelling across early Meiji-era Japan to do nuclear magic stuff. The plotline is a little bit in a fetch-and-quest style and reminded me of your usual one-shot DnD campaign. While some might say the art itself is a bit clunky, I think the combination of 3D-art with 2D-90's style colouring gives the movie its own style. The music work in this movie is appropriate. And we got human, elf, orc, dwarf, and goblin--your usual fantasy races--as the characters. I enjoyed it. Story (7) - A human samurai, a spear-wielding orc, anda little orphaned elf girl travelling across early Meiji-era Japan to do nuclear-related magic stuff. The plotline is a little bit in a fetch-and-quest style and reminded me of your usual one-shot DnD campaign. Building world while in adventure kind of story progression with some action scenes here and there.

Art (6) - While some might say the art itself is a bit clunky, I think the combination of 3D-art with 2D-90's Ukiyo-e style colouring gives the movie its own style. The action scenes have good transitions, and overall-ish have better than your average action scenes.

Sound (8) - The music work in this movie is appropriate. The sound effects (walking, blade swinging, blood splatter, etc.) sound realistic and ASMR-y, while the BGM itself mainly pumped you up for the fight scenes.

Character (6) - We got human, elf, orc, dwarf, goblin, your usual fantasy races, for the characters. They made the goblin a sentient civilized race, and that's an intriguing concept. Aside from the main characters, we barely got any character exploration--and that's just a 6 for me.

Enjoyment (7) - I enjoyed it. Maybe because I don't care about the original Bright, but this Samurai Soul version may be a solid 7 anime movie. I don't want to rewatch it tho'.
