Why do people dislike anime movies based on series? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Of course, I don't mean standalone anime movies like Studio Ghibli films, since those usually go over pretty well. I'm talking about the movies that are based on series. It almost always happens. An anime runs for a while, people like it, it becomes mainstream, and then it gets a movie and people don't like it. Why is this? Well, it's because the movies usually don't matter at all. They're usually just filler, and the characters never show up later in the series. They don't even usually mention what took place in the movie ever again. It's just a standalone story that's pretty much just made for money, and it shows. Even if it's animated as well as ever and the story is good, you can just tell it was made to make money. This makes it hard to watch, especially if you know that ultimately it's a waste of time. Some movies do go over well, but that's usually the ones that tie into the series. Then again, other people complain about the fact that not everyone is able to see the movies too, so I guess you can't please everyone. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I just wanted to talk about why some anime movies usually did better than others. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
