Intro features lots of Tsukasa and scenes from the games. Drat, I need two things: English releases of the games (only the first is out) and a PS2 emulator. Stupid single console only releases.
All of them on a barge partying christmas together. Trying not to think about what they are about to do. And a "We're low quality Charlies Angels" joke. Heh. Lower quality than Charlies Angels.
A dodgy person on a motor boat joins the conspiracy. Back to the "Harold tried to create an AI kid" theory. Horrible shock from the characters, who clearly haven't read sci-fi. Humm... the AI (Aura) was represented by the information in the system. But the system of transferring the information became self aware as well - and the system is the mother, existing solely to give birth to Aura. Tacky explanation.
Eww.. lots and lots of "Here is what you missed" explanations. You could have just left the ocean front approach unexplained. Heck, we wouldn't even have known that there WAS a bridge if he hadn't brought it up.
Yeesh, this is following a very set pattern. "Why are you doing this?" Interrupted by requests for coffee..
Percentage progress bars with three decimal points, those are a good idea.
Um. Trying to create interest by having lots of 'please hurry'. That's not good.
Lots of quick emails flashed up. To save you the effort of pausing...
Sieg: It'll be all right. I made a PC for you already, so just take a seat, okay?
Sieg: Well, actually, I thought I was the one being disliked. But it was all a twisted an immature expression of affection, I guess?
Sieg: Watch me! I'm preety good, even though I'm not as good as the Descendants of Fiana.
##@? : No, she's not someone who'll say "yes" just for that. Not Minase. Being a fallen angel about violin practice?
Sieg: Balmung of the Azure Sky, Orca of the Azure Sea... I'm not going to be inferior to you guys!
{tone and 'Sieg'}
Kasumi's heart alarm goes off - he is fighting in the game.
They plan to route hack the server - crashing it and pretending to be it. Meanwhile everyone in the game is fighting for them. If they get it wrong, they braindump everyone. Mai's swaying is really annoying and adds nothing to the tension - the music is bad too.
The police finally get in and everyone does a scooby doo.
"Everyone is fine" "How do you know that?" "Because that is her - the ultimate AIs - will"
And Aura is born into the real world in an ambiguous firework show.
It starts to snow.
Mister police brutality managed to hide the evidence. They go off to party.
Does anyone even know what those four were TRYING to acheive, let alone what they managed? Definitely a 'play the game first' movie. Damn.
Note, Hermes Trismegistus is legendarily the founder of the order of hermes - the twin egyptian schools of magic and alchemy and so forth.
