As mentioned, this is a short movie (only a few minutes long) that was released in the theaters. The animation and everything is all new and it has a big-screen feel to it. Despite this, it didn't do as much for me as the series, mainly because this was a retread of certain elements of Azumanga Daioh (like Chiyo's pigtails falling off). If you've seen the series, there's nothing new here but the art/animation.
Bottom line: Being such a huge fan of the series, I hope ADV includes it in its DVD release. Last updated Tuesday, July 22 2003. | ||||||||

Yep, an extremely short movie, even the movie soundtrack is three times longer than the movie. But that is such the world of Azumanga Daioh. It's really a introduction than anything else. But since it was released in movie theaters across Japan, it has the honor of having the best Art and Animation from the entire Azumanga Daioh saga. Is it short, yes; is it worth checking out, oh hell yea. You may consider it a test to see if Azumanga is right for you. Chiyo-chan is so KAWAII!!! Last updated Thursday, January 16 2003. | ||||||||
