Impartiality is not easy when you are judge and jury. Judge by emotional affiliation with Ankama, making that many references, ways of seeing the world, provocations and mockeries of the movie, are familiar to me for having accompanied years of my life - I understand them, I enjoy them, they make me smile, laugh, vibrate or cry. Judge also because all that is embodied in a universe, characters and action which follow the codes of Japanese animation, which also built me.
But I still continue, just for the pleasure. After 24 hours, I realized that my wife and I laughed several times in the train back home while remembering the movie ... one element popped-up in my dreams at night... and I still think of the movie smiling 24 hours later. I finally do not remember a film having made me laugh as often while pulling me tears from the eyes... and captivating me for 2 hours. Dense, panting, unrestrained, vibrant, and always "in tune", this is what comes to mind. This is excellent ... and exceptional for a first attempt.
Congratulations to the Ankama teams which delivered such a great work. I know nothing about cinema, but I imagine the colossal work to be able to compete without blushing with the largest US productions, even though it is a first try, built with the means and resources of an SME.
Bravo, really congratulations to all.
