The greatest movie ever made..!

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

I discovered this anime series last year on Crunchyroll, and immediately fell in love. I now have the series on DVD, and just re- watched it again with my sister, who is also now in love. I must say, that I cried and wept several times during the series. The most depressing part is that the series ends on a serious cliffhanger - unfortunately there was never a season 2. :(Guin is the ultimate hero - the swoonworthy warrior who is full of wisdom, compassion, resolute strength, and honor. He is someone I would pledge my sword & shield to without hesitation if I were a knight or soldier in this world of Guin Saga.The animation is lovely, the music is beautiful, the characters are incredibly well-developed, and there is much mystery, masterful story-telling and the human struggles of right & wrong, good & evil, loyalty & betrayal, etc. If I could give this series 20 stars, I would. I also bought the first book in the series, and will read as much as I can because I am obsessed with finding out how this saga ends...
