High School Fleet Movie

TOP 10 anime betrayals (in a way). High School Fleet (Movie) is a sequel to the High School Fleet anime. Like in the anime series, a lot of maritime jargon is used in the movie. Yet being unknowledgeable to maritime jargon, you'll enjoy this. WHY WATCH THIS: Recommending this movie if you are after on the fighting scenes with strong-minded and kawaii girls as the characters, a mix of drama in respect to friendship, a fighting scenes of cruiser and battleship, the sound of artillery (highly recommended LOL) and sound of waves caused by the ships, and how do battles occur in ocean bodies. WHYN'T WATCH THIS: Ifyou like a story focused one like Kimi no Nawa, Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei Movie: Hoshi wo Yobu Shoujo then this movie isn't worth watching. This movie packs a punch of fighting scenes with just a touch of drama.

I'm a fan of the TV series, but this movie really let me down. Story: 5/10 The script of the TV series impressed me very much, the plot is very simple but creates drama, knows how to portray the story and the development of the characters. However, the plot of the movie is really bad, it both has no connection to the TV series, and surprised the fans because everything suddenly started without warning. The first part, the movie introduces a lot of new ships and new characters, besides there is a competition between other schools that makes me quite expect a fierce competition. But everything suddenly ended becausean incident suddenly appeared from nowhere. The villains suddenly appear from nowhere too and with no clear purpose and plan, leaving fans really confused. And then the main characters handle everything too easily, without any drama and surprises. Art: 9/10 Inherited from the TV series, the old and new characters are all very cute (Except Su) and the new ships are also epic. The battle scene from the ships didn't disappoint either, though it wasn't much. Sound: 8/10 There's not much to say. But the sound from the battle scenes and the music are pretty good. Character: 6/10 I love all the members of the Harekaze ship, but the movie focuses mainly on Mike and Shiro. The drama between them is also quite good, but nothing has a climax and a cliché ending. The new characters appearing on the new ships are all very cute, but they are too faint, have almost no acting space and do not show any abilities. The new character that appears a lot in the movie, Su is really boring. We can replace her with a new character or leave her without much impact on the plot. Her purpose in coming to Yokosuka, her reasons for acting or her role can all be removed without affecting the plot of the movie. Her connection with Mike and Shiro was also too superficial, there was nothing deep enough for them to take care of her like that. Another character is Musashi's captain, Moka. I know she is an excellent student, in the TV series she did not have much time to show her ability. But her power shown in this movie is too fantasy, making her look like the strongest of among all characters. Enjoyment: 7/10 The first part of the movie was actually quite interesting until Su showed up. The members of Harekaze are all very cute and funny. The battleships are also very beautiful and the battle scenes are very eye-catching. So if you love Haifuri and want to see the members of the Harekaze ship again, the movie isn't too bad. Overall: 7/10 Although the script is bad and the new characters are not developed well, but as I said, if you love Haifuri and the members of Harekaze, you can still enjoy this movie. I really love Haifuri's return, so I quite enjoyed this movie (at least at the beginning of the movie and the battleship firing scenes).

It is recommended to watch the 2 OVA episodes first. There is not much change in the content of the story. In this movie they spend longer on land because there is a festival at their school, it can be said that the story tells more about their fun during the festival. However there is a bit of personal conflict between the captain and vice captain of this Harekaze Ship. Even so in this movie, the war scenes are also good, even in my opinion this is the most tense compared to the anime series. I hope there is a sequel to the series.
