Finally, I'm at the last film. And I gotta say, didn't realize I was watching Ranma ½ and the secret movie I didn't hear about. That was a stupid joke, but I'll explain why I mentioned that in a second. To be perfectly frank, there's nothing really substantial to mention about this film, except for the fact that Urusei Yatsura Movie 6: Always My Darling was made for the ten year anniversary of the Urusei Yatsura anime. I thought that was pretty special and worth mentioning. Minor Spoilers. I'll keep this short, the storyline behind this film feels like they took specific parts of previous UruseiYatsura films and stitched them together to make...this. I won't summarize the plot, because I'll sound like a broken record, but if you made it this far into Urusei Yatsura and read the synopsis for this film, you know exactly what's going to happen. None of it was bad in any way, but you've seen it all before. It had some goofy moments that made laugh, and some sad moments that made me a little emotional. It's just Urusei Yatsura, that's all. The story wasn't exceptional, but it wasn't underwhelming either. It was just mediocre. I do love the scene where Ataru tricks his entire class and manipulates them into doing random stuff for the love potion. Mendo threatens to kill Ataru if he doesn't tell him where it is, but Ataru can't tell them where it is if he's dead, so he takes advantage of them. That was a great scene, but it didn't last all that long.
The music is not worth mentioning. It sounds just like the other songs from the last couple of films. Something that is worth mentioning are the character designs. I love them! I briefly mentioned in my last review that over time, the character designs, with each film were becoming more refined and expressive. I think the characters look fine in any specific way they're drawn; even in the first film. Always My Darling did an excellent job at giving these characters a more updated 90's look, it fits them very well. It looks like I'm watching Ranma ½! They have the exact same character designs, and at this point, Takahashi's art style had changed a lot over a decade.
This film was okay. It had it's moments, but it wasn't all that good. I'm still putting it ahead of Remember My Love, because that film feels so uninspired and dry compared to the other films. Keep in mind, the gap in quality between Remember My Love and Always My Darling is not that big. I'm giving it a slight edge, only because I found more enjoyment out of this film. And with that, I'M DONE REVIEWING THESE MOVIES! Took some time, and a few pair of eyeballs, but I'm done. This movie gets a 6 out of 10. I'm gonna go watch Ranma ½ for the umpteenth time. Later, fuckfaces ( ̄▽ ̄)ノ.
