WONDER EGG PRIORITY: My Priority
Ahhh i cant remember being so so so sad about some anime. After seeing Wonder Egg Priority season i was so happy and pumped. It felt like every single thing this anime did was unique and special. The conversations between characters, animation, music, storyline and so on. I felt for the first time watching anime everything differently. I was very used to a certain pattern of the animes but this was just on another planet. So i was very hyped and had i guess now judging after too big expectation for this movie.
I would first like to take a look at what Wonder Egg Priority showed us, then compare it with the Wonder Egg Priority: My Priority movie and lastly close it out.
What did Wonder Egg Priority show us
I believe one of the main things anime showed us in the season is how Ai Ohto is dealing with her life after losing her one and only friend Koito Nagase. She was putting this on herself, believing that if she was there and understood better.. she wouldnt have to live with this regret and maybe still having Koito around. This feeling of regret wasnt the only one in the place.. as she also was angry at Koito not talking to her since they were best friends. As the anime continued she was after all of this able to build a friendship with other characters like Rika, Momoe or Neiru. One thing all connecting them, that being the wonder eggs and wish to save those dear to them. At this part i really liked to watch the unique style of conversations, its hard to really tell what exactly is different compared to other animes, i think you have to see it yourself to understand :D. At the end i was ofcourse like lot of other people very interested and wanted to know what happens after, what changes or where the storyline goes after finishing the mission.

So after some time waiting for the movie to hit. I didnt have any predictions, only expecting something amazing and unique again. I felt like the anime at this point was overflowing with potential (i was also bit suprised and sad that we only get movie and not whole season to be honest). I feel like since it was just a movie, the recap wasnt needed to be there, it for sure was nice but comeon.. we have 47 minutes and half of it is just recap? That was the first time i got scared. Well after that? I felt like the movie just showed us that all the characters were saved by our MCs and that they arent the same, which i personally liked to be honest.. a really cool idea with the paralel worlds. Then it went really downhill... Neiru dissapearing without any big information or reason given to us.. there was just the glimpse with Frill. But like otherwise i feel like we didnt get to see anything. Only one thing i felt like the anime showed which was developing in the prequel was the friendship between Ai, Rika and Momoe... looking at them in the movie it seemed for some time like they would be a really good friends... but then again it was instantly cutted of by Ai transferring school.
Sum up
To be honest. If this wasnt meant to be the complete closer to the story... i wouldnt mind it as something between seasons. I would view it as something like "oh cool, before season 2 hits we get movie to keep us in the story and interested, there wont be any big void between the two seasons". But if we know that this is supposed to conclude the whole story.. i cant think of anything else than just this being such a big waste of potential. It really felt rushed.. i guess they themselves didnt expect it to hit this much :(.
If i were to score movie itself then it would be 5/10 at best. I gave it 7/10 just because i kept in mind the previous whole season.
