This movie's lack of care for the audience's appreciation of detail was insulting. ALL of them! And what do we get from it? NOTHING!! Absolutely nothing, as if to say "All this cool stuff happened, but you don't get to see it." I may not speak for everyone, but I for one was offended by this. Consistently, the film teases all of the major plotlines. Chapters are placed where they don't belong for no rhyme or reason, important plot points are tweaked to move along this clusterfuck of a story, and the supporting cast is reduced to comic relief and pointless exposition. From this point to the penultimate scene, the film is nothing but random filler chapters meshed together to create a bastardization of the romantic progression between Ikaros and Tomoki. It then cuts away to several months prior, a typical day at the Sakurai household.
The scene progresses, and ends approximately where the chapter does. Immediately this is unsettling there was no way they could fit the massive final arc and all of its setup into this 50 minute timeblock. The movie begins with Ikaros' dramatic climax from the second-to-last chapter. What we got, however, was nothing of the sort. Towards its end the anime deviated from the manga, making it possible that this new movie might provide a unique ending while still borrowing key elements from the source material. When it was confirmed that we were getting a second film instead, that dream was crushed.
A third season would have barely managed to fit all of that in, but it was still possible. The SnO manga had mountains of story left SnO Final forgets about all of that- no, they deliberately ignore it in this mess of a film. It's often cast aside as yet another pile of trash fanservice, when in fact it has an incredibly deep storyline, as well as fantastic emotion and drama. Sora no Otoshimono Final: Eternal My Master is a film that replaced the would-be third season of Sora no Otoshimono, an anime I find sadly underrated.
I am convinced that this is what the directors/writers/whoever asked themselves when making this film. "How can we make the most unsatisfying ending possible, while still technically concluding something?"
