I'm very lucky to have been in Japan to see this in theaters. I'll let you know my thoughts. The movie is a good continuation of the series with the characters we know and love. While it doesn't have as big of a plot as some of the other entries, it wraps up several arcs in meaningful ways that lead to a satisfying conclusion. If you are a fan of the rest of the series this is a must see but don't go in with too high of expectations, just enjoy our friends. The animation, music, and voice acting are all done well. The moral isn't hitting you over the head. The movie was well worth the watch.
