    (Spanish review below) I don't have much to say about the movie. I recommend watching it for the first twenty minutes, as they add several new scenes. The rest of the film is a compilation of the middle of the series onwards. In any case, the scenes don't add anything new to the plot, but they are interesting scenes that contribute to the development of the protagonists, especially Masaki and Minato. ... No tengo mucho que decir de la película. Recomiendo verla por los primeros veinte minutos, ya que agregan varias escenas nuevas. El resto de la película es una recopilación de la mitad de la serie enadelante. De todas formas, las escenas tampoco agregan nada nuevo a la trama, pero sí son escenas interesantes que aportar al desarrollo de los protagonistas, sobre todo Masaki y Minato.
