That Time A Filler Episode was called Tensura The Movie
I got around to watching Scarlet Bond. I really loved the design of Hiiro and Princess Towa. However, in the same movie itself, Hiiro was constantly branded a one-track character, he tries to be like Benimaru, cool, calm and serious and in this he takes Benimaru's position as that cool protagonist. Princess Towa's tiara is basically called "Ugly Tiara" which was pretty funny to hear because she's petite and has pretty cool light green ponytails. Sadly both these characters weren't able to be fleshed out unlike the ones we know from the TV series. What could have made it better? IF you replace the perspective to Towa's. Let her be our window to Raja, Hiiro. Because even after the movie I still cannot wrap my head on what was on her mind when she saved and named him.
Give us the context to why it was important.
I also admire the fight when Hiiro attempted to destroy the orc in Tempest. It showed how the orc was able to let go his weapons and shield. To sacrifice for his kin. The sins of the orcs. Sadly it was a one and done. Forgive so easily and to be forgotten. However, what I hated most was how Fuse dumbed Hiiro down at the very last part of the movie. Hiiro had a big role to play as the new character introduced in this movie. The least you could do is sacrifice his life and leave it at that. However not only did they Disneyfy the death but no one died in the end, so nothing mattered. I would have loved to see how Hiiro lost his horn. Or like how Towa was played like a puppet into becoming sick. Instead, it's just a set of unrelated short episodes strung together to tell a side quest of a neighboring kingdom's two characters: Towa and Hiiro, who lived happily ever after. No idea why our heroes needed to be in here and become film extras but it helped expand the film length. Adds a bunch of characters to the lore of Tensura but nothing major to enrich the canon. If you per chance skipped this movie, you don't lose any important story beads to Tensura. Maybe you'll watch this and say, yeah it was a good time, better animated side story with pretty action esthetics. Just avoid thinking about why and just roll with it. - iphonescamo - 1 February 2023
By far the worst animated movie ever
I was so excited for this movie and saw it the first (and only) day my local theater was showing it and was it the biggest let down. The tv series is amazing but this movie was filled was the worst writing and character development ever. The animation style and sound effect don't even match the original series. It was so bad that 2 of the main characters die like 3 times each and come back to life. I implor you not to waste your money. The main character of the series Literally spends 20 min chasing the same character then just insta kills him absolute waist of time.this movie single handily is the worst piece of this entire series. Would rather watch paint dry then that movie ever again.
