Really? To be honest, my feelings are lukewarm about it at best, and only if I'm feeling generous.
The good: o The music was pretty good. I liked OP/ED, and the soundtrack was decent. o It was short. (To understand why this is good, read on) o If you're a Nagi fan, you should be happy. The bad: o For a movie, the animation was terrible. TER-RI-BLE. Clearly worse than both TV series. o The "story" was trivial. No excitement whatsoever. o With very few exceptions, the humor had no edge. The ugly: o It was Hayate no Gotoku children's matinee. Target audience was no older than 12. o The main theme - Hayate's devotion to Nagi - was put on so thick that it ruined the impact. o Personal disappointment: It emphasized exactly the type of HnG which I consider the weakest. If you're a sucker for sappiness, fuzzy feelings and are a huge Nagi shipper, the movie may be a 7/10 for you. For me, I see no reason to go past 5/10, and that already feels generous. |

Hmm ... a pity that Mentar did not enjoy the movie.
I will admit that it was certainly lighthearted in it's humor and not "edgy" ... but when Hayate in general resorts to that type of humor is when I enjoy it the most. Animation quality wise it certainly not "Children Who Hear Voices from Deep Below", but I did not think it was all that bad either - although certainly not up to "film" standards, I guess. I agree that the soundtrack was pretty good but also admit that I am not much of a "Nagi Shipper", per se. The story is directly linked with the main series, but rather than an alternate story I would guess it would be more of a supplemental story. Must admit that I am kinda curious if it will be incorporated into the manga. But then again I have to confess outright that I am a sucker for sappiness and fuzzy feelings (my fave series this season is Tamayura Hitotose, for example), so my opinion on the whole may not be surprising. So yeah ... I would give the film a 7.5/10 vote overall.
