I was personally semi-disappointed in the movie. I am glad that best girl megumi won, though it was expected, but it honestly didn’t really like she did. I mean she has a future with Tomoya but the plot was pretty spread out and never really focused on that development of their relationship. It was the overall thing that the plot revolved around but it was executed pretty poorly. The series is called “How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend” when it felt like she wasn’t the main focus at all. It didn’t live up to the title because I didn’t feel like she was raised at all, she felt the most like a side character. Especially considering how much time the MC spends with the other two girls, Eriri and Utaha. Though the two left him and the group in pursuit of their own development and future Tomoya somehow gets sucked into their issue and messes up the dynamic of his main group which is supposed to be his main focus, which in turn leaves Megumi to work on her own along with the rest of the circle he left for the two weeks. It might just be me but I cannot comprehend why he involved himself in matters that would betray his own group, though to his credit he did work on his own work while he was away. There is a lot of “forgiveness” in the series that I don’t understand. Like how Eriri continually betrays Tomoya but the anime tries to make it feel like she’ll somehow still have a chance just because he forgives her for it. She even admits in the movie that she did it twice which adds on to her very poorly portrayed role as the “tsundere” in the series, she felt more like a bad person than the childhood best friend. Her main betrayal was her leaving him when they were first friends which even takes away from her role as childhood best friend for when she wasn’t there for the latter parts of his childhood. One of the most out of place scenes in the movie is her and Tomoya’s “closure” scene. Considering the betrayal that happened it wasn’t needed. There was also Megumi forgiving Tomoya for leaving her and the circle to help Utaha and Eriri on their project that was falling apart, the project that they left him for Megumi for. I understand that Tomoya has a sort of personal obligation to help them because of how big of a role they played in his development as a director/chairman and that Megumi knows that and loves him for being him but It felt like that conflict was resolved way too fast and the kiss felt rushed due to the fact that they were dating was pretty unclear/vague so far in the story. It should’ve done more to explain and develop more of Megumi’s character and her relationships especially with Tomoya and possibly Eriri. Well, overall the series gave us great characters and a very interesting plot that involves game development, writing, and artistry which I won't talk about because I recommend others to watch and find out for themselves. The anime can easily be around the mid 80s but due to personal nitpicks it is a 78 for me.
