Nice addition to the series
11 November 2004
Am already a fan of the YUA TV series and the OVAs, and enjoyed the movie. I have both the sub and the dub. While YUA has up till the movie been more of a tongue-in-cheek humor romp, the movie manages take the same characters and make them much more serious, while still having a few laughs - something that isn't always easy to do well. It was nice to finally see some background on the Chief, and on Bokuto Precinct's least favorite superior officer. This installment also added some notes on Japanese culture and history, something that hasn't really come into play as much in the TV/OVAs. You don't have to be familiar with the series to get the plot and enjoy the action, but you'll get more out of the character interaction and jokes. And they're worth seeing, especially if you can use some light humor.
