Direction wise, the art style, soundtrack, animation, action choreography and setting is amazing. This is one of the best anime movies that can set an atmosphere so powerfully and hold that for the entire movie. It never becomes boring, dry or slow. The action is breathtaking and just awesome.
Story wise, the charecters are amazing. Each of them have their own motives, ions and past that drive them, and the mesh of these create a complex yet moving story. The arc of the main charecter isn't abrupt, and well developed. The story is not purely cliche'd, it retains a lot of seriousness throughout the movie.
Honestly, I reccomend this movie to all those who love anime movies or appreciate amazing direction and storytelling.
