First I'd like to say I love the Saiki K anime! I fully know that any live adpation of an anime or cartoon show can be a hit or bust. This was a bust. 👎
I was so excited to watch this film even though I could tell from trailer it probably wasn't going to be faithful to the anime or manga. They weren't faithful to the characters, or storyline. It was like they crammed 10 episodes into one movie that takes place in one setting. They made the main characters act in ways they normally wouldn't, and combined traits/ personalities other characters have into one person. Without sharing spoilers I will say Teruhashi, Nendo, Hairo, and Kuboyasu are not represented in the best light. Kusuo and Kaido are pretty much the same but at the same time they aren't. Kusuo is completely dead pan and Kaido exhibits no embarrassment from his dillusions like he normally would in the anime.
I'm not going to say not to watch it because if your a fan curiosity will get the best of you. But honestly you aren't missing anything.
