Review K On the movie

Yui being Yui

Since a long time ago I have been kit of where he of any franchise movies especially something called whatever the movie. Even so I decided to watch the movie and found it somewhat entertaining.

A music movie needs a good jam session
Well having a chat with girls of another club the members of Hokago teatime decide that they need to do something special for the graduation namely going on a trip somewhere. After some thinking about it and have fast deception on the part of Yui, they decide to go London. They also decide that they need to do something special for their youngest member Azusa, before they graduate.

Look it's overpriced food
If the previous paragraph made it sound like this movie is a bit short on plot then I think said paragraph did its job. However as with the television show K On has never been about plot. It is instead nearly 2 hours of being a charming slice of life show with some comedy.

The person in the middle is supposed to be white yet the person on the right is Japanese
Thus the question is if you do like K On at all sure you see this movie? My answer is a most emphatic yes. The general character antics which are the staple of the show are still present in this movie. Yui is still hurt air-headed self, Azusa is still the adorable but reliable underclassmen, and so on. On top of that the animation is quite good as to be expected from a movie and the plot finds ways to have the girls sing four times during the movie.

The movie crams as much music into itself as believeable
 So final review the K On movie is little more than a long episode but somehow I'm okay with that. This is a movie created entirely for those who like K On no one else.
Rating the bronze Hokago teacup (K On) for being a movie that is charmingly true to it’s television source material.
