The movie does a great job of just showing us the main two characters of the show but to get a better understanding of all the characters involved, you need to watch the show. Without the show seeing all these random so-called “friends” feels odd when it’s really not supposed to be. We get to who these people are and why they’re important to Tomoya and Nagisa. Overall opinion, decent movie but pacing is too slow and only three characters are fleshed out. 7.5/10 for me.
