I flew to Japan to see this movie and I have to say it was worth it. Artistically speaking, definitely among the top. However, the story felt a bit rushed. A set of movies or even a seasonal tv anime may have worked better and you`ll understand why if you see it.
-2020 Revision

Story: 8
Great story but it definitely feels rushed even with 2 hours. Tet recalls the story of 6000 years ago before he becomes the one true god and it pretty much explains who everyone is and the survival of imanity, however, they just go over way too many things and loses the entire ...

Story : 10/10
The story is well written for both anime and Light Novel; Volume 6, content delivery is very good and easy to understand. However, it is important to watch the TV anime before proceed to the movie since not everything explain from scratch.

Art : 10/10
If you like colorful anime you know NGNL have it but dark-themed of NGNL surprisingly went along with the story theme. It's the great war after all. Well drawn background and coloring, expected nothing less.

Character : 10/10
This part might containing a spoiler however reading this will not spoiling your experience.
Author, or rather Tet, made Riku and Shuvi similar to Sora ...

Having read the light novel, No Game No Life Zero was everything i expected it to be. You shouldn't be watching this movie with similar expectations to the series in mind mainly because the setting of both stories in the anime and the movie are worlds apart (hah see what I did there). One important thing to keep in mind is despite the movie's main purpose being to explain the origins of the world of Disboard(current NGNL world), the story is focused on the development of a romance between the two MCs and their efforts to change the world.

As someone who loves anime, spending my summer in japan to visit my japanese cousins was pretty lucky. No Game No Life:Zero is a must watch for anyone who has watched the original television series.

The production value of this movie is one of the best out there in anime so far.
The artwork is amazing (as it also is in the television series) and the sound to match.
The world within No Game No Life is fully present, and the atmosphere through it all was great.

However, While it was very entertaining to watch, the story itself seemed a bit lackluster, as the plot seems to be rather ...

We often remember No Game No Life as that one anime with pink gradients and excessively bright color-schemes. When this district art-style suddenly changes, the atmosphere and our expectations for what’s to come change along with it. I’m sure you all remember how impactful the first 9 minutes of episode 9 were, with its complete grayscale with lack of context. No Game No Life: Zero, in short, gives you a similar feel through a ninety-minute emotional roller-coaster, completely remaking its original Gaming/Comedy genre into something more touching, but none the less still very entertaining.

The premise of the story makes itself very clear: there are no ...

----~No Game No Life: Zero (ノーゲーム・ノーライフ ゼロ)~----

Now as one of the people who got to see this premier at the Los Angeles Anime Film Festival
back in September, I feel obligated to review this anime movie. Mostly cause I met Scott and Caitlyn and delayed the movie showing by 10 minutes.. Yeah

Story~
The story is amazing and one of the most original stories I have ever seen.Thought I feel it would have been better if it was its own series like a "NGNL Season Zero" That would have been cool! But even when the movie is 2 hours long it feels like you have been ...

Tbh. I dont have much to say simply sayed its a masterpiece that has to be watched, even if u ask me the anime itself isnt that great, the Film is Peak af.
The development of the characters in the Film aswell as the Soundtracks etc. Was perfect and i believe many people who once watched it can agree with my opinion.

The characters reacted properly in the dedicated situation and there where a good backstory.
About the artstyle i would like to say that i loved it but i assume that this is my Personal opinio and as i sayed previously the anime didnt had any ...

First review here. I don't tend write long elegant reviews but here's just a dump of information.

So NGNL: Zero is a prequel of NGNL, explaining how thousands of year ago the rules of the world were established.

I absolutely adored the movie. To be honest, I was a little skeptical, being a prequel. I thought that I wouldn't like it because it didn't have my favorite characters. Or because the trailers made it look like more of an action drama than the comedic game anime that the series was.

In any case, I loved the movie. This is mainly due to the two main protagonist. I ...

I TOTALLY DIDN'T EXPECT WHAT I'M ABOUT TO WATCH HAS THIS POWERFUL IMPACT!

The atmosphere is really heavy i found myself hard to breathe sometimes, accompanied with powerful scoring, they really made this movie with theatre in mind, totally polar opposite of the main series.
But really, the scoring and the atmosphere really punch me in the chest, Yoshitsugu Matsioka's voice acting is exceptionally terrific it made me tremble for every emotional moment of the movie. As for the animation, there should be no room for doubt looking at the studio behind it, eh? The relationship between Riku and Shuvi are really the treat of the show, ...

I would like to point out that i love this anime and light novel, so i rated it rather high.
I watched it yesterday for a 2 day showing in the US in selected theaters (1 day subbed and another dubbed) in subbed.

The movie takes place 6,000 year before Sora and Shiro arrives and is further down in the light novel (i forgot where). A quick summary would be describing how the world of Disboard became what it is in the anime/light novel. Although the movie did cut out some details here and there (as expected from any book turned movie), it was still an amazing ...

I don't always write review, but I feel like I have to for this one.

No Game No Life: Zero tells the story of how Disboard became a world where games works as its law and foundations. And the world didn't actually just became like that simply because the God of Disboard, Tet, feels like it.

Story: 10/10
It's truly marvelous. I can't really tell how great the story is without spoiling. In this movie you will find out the origins of the rules of Disboard, the origins of Aschente word, how Stephanie's family became the ruler of Imanity, the ...

This is my first review so sorry if I'm not great at it. (I'm not really good with this stuff to begin with)

Anyways I just saw this movie last night (was to late to do a review) and I have to give it No Game No Life Zero a 10/10 it was really a strong adaptation of volume 6 of No Game No Life.

Madhouse has done it once again they've really nailed it on the head the music, the accurate story telling the animation everything was really fleshed out really well even though it was only an hour and forty five minutes it was an ...

This is an exceptional anime movie. Honestly, if you're putting this off because it wont feature the two main characters from the original, don't do that to yourself. This ties into the other universe phenomenally.

The story is so good. The beginning is powerful, the climax is powerful, and the ending is powerful.

The art is what you'd expect from NGNL. Very vibrant with lens flares eyes on characters when they're serious. I saw a review claiming that it's dull to suit the tone of the movie. I not only think that's false, but I seriously hope that person gets a full refund for his viewing ...

No Game No Life Zero is a prequel to the events to the anime, focusing on Riku and his robotic companion Shuvi. That's pretty much all you need to know for this particular review.

The story can feel kind of light novel-ey, but in a good way. Unlike the anime, which has a light-hearted and fun plot, this movie has a more gritty and tragic one. If you're prone to the feels, you might even cry at some parts. However, it still does a wonderful job of capturing the spirit of NGNL. Comedic interjections are often put to ease up tense moments, and the movie has ...

Before you read this, don't judge my english I know it's not that great :(.
Also it's all my personal opinion so don't get butthurt if your not feeling the same way as I did!!!!! Enjoy my FIRST and probably last review:)) (It has no spoilers!!!)

Being completely honest, I have no words to say.
I'm just irritated and annoyed of myself that I didn't watched this earlier.

The story, I wasn't expecting much of the ''game'' part or that it would relate so much to the No game no life series. What I thought was that I was going to see a full action movie with fullout wars ...

l would like to say no game no life: zero have different plot than no game no life. It has more darker world and story but beyond the scope of movie it is the part of whole story. And the more you dig in the story , the more you get enjoy. And details like Tet's appearance and clothes or the fact Disboard (the name of the world in no game no life) is actually a game. These are outstanding and stylish. The movie is being told by Tet like a myth. But in the middle of movie there is no story anymore for audience. ...

From what I had seen in the anime it all revolved around high-stake games that capitalized one its dramatic and emotional moments to keep the audience at the edge of their seats. While in-between comedic hilarity would ensue to relieve the viewer.

But this movie was utter raw emotion. This was not just a story of the Great War, nor was it just a prequel to the main story. It is the tragedy of two lovers that wanted nothing more than to be each other. Forever...

Although the first half could be considered slow and uninteresting when compared to second half. It held the purpose of building ...

It became my second favorite of all.
I cried a lot at watching it.
I got so powerful emotional impact from watching this anime.
So, let's it be my second the best anime for now.

It's so powerful romatic story, and as well it contains many another-thematic important moments, ideas (like a necessity to sacrifice life of one at certain moment to make happines be possible for all others people).

This movie has gone beyond being a movie and entered the realm of art. This piece of work is a masterpiece.

Whilst the anime is 7/10 - it would be better to watch it before the movie even though it's not required.

Visuals: 10/10. Even the explosions evoke strong emotions. The explosions explode with beautiful timings and visuals. It's very good.

Characters: 10/10. The characters grow and love in a way that makes the heart yearn.

Music: 10/10. The music is subtle and barely noticeable mostly but in the moments that it is brought to the forefront - it is perfect and powerful. The closing song is perfect ...
