Ah Love is War, how many times are you going to prove yourself? This is just such a perfect romance, one that has proven to be so romantic, so hilarious, yet so true to its characters.
That's what I loved about this movie. It's all about exploring these 2 characters a bit more. Kaguya is one of my all time favourite characters. And after this movie, if it was even possible, I like her even more. What I love about her character is that she has many sides to her. She has a lot of pride, but at the same time she is just full of all these different emotions and feelings. She can hardly handle herself in front of Shirogane for that very reason. This movie explores her character on an even deeper level. Why is she the way that she is, why does she have so many sides to her, and how can she come into terms with that to face Shirogane? And honestly, it was beautiful to see her confront all these problems. It honestly was very relatable too. At the same time they explore Shirogane's character a bit more. That was also great to see. My friend actually used the perfect term for this movie - "it was needed". Yes, it was, this movie was very much necessary for these 2 characters, and that's why it felt so perfect.
Btw, after that Season 3 finale, these characters behave exactly the way they would've. That's just proof, that the author really understands these characters and stays true to them.
The movie has some great humour too (the first act was absolutely hilarious), not as much as usual, but that's obviously because they wanted to make an emotional movie for our main characters. The direction as always is very clever and unconventional.
My only problem is that the directions they took with the side characters felt unfinished and out of place. But that's probably because this was a movie, so they adapted some chapters in between, and those plot points will probably come into picture later.
Overall though this was a beautiful, beautiful movie and Love is War has continued to impress me again and again. It's arguably one of the best romances I've seen.
