>>28293302The Hoopa movie actually had something resembling a conflict, and the characters actually acted in the world rather than being glorified macguffins and set pieces
>Diancie is a slacker princess>Carbink are exposition>Diancie must repair magic crystal that really is never explained>Goes to surface>Finds Ash and company>Go to a mall and fuck around>Go find xerneas>Xerneas tells em to fuck off>Fuck around in a city>Team rocket captures diancie>Diancie literally walks away>Obviously not bad guy shows up for two scenes>Blue crook and Red crook chase them a bit>Surprise Green crook is a bad guy>They fall in a puddle>Wake up Yveltal>Yveltal turns shit to stone>Diancie mega evolves>xerneas fixes shit>The endWhere the fuck is the plot? Where the fuck are the characters? Ash and friends did nothing. Carbink just spewed exposition. The crooks barely had any scenes, no character, and only served to lead them to yveltal. Yveltal had no actual connection to the plot. No big battle or conflict. Deer-ex machina shows up and fixes everything with a blank expression. All diancie did was fuck around until it mega-evolved at the end.
This isn't a story. There's nothing learned, no sacrifice. Hoopa had a big conflict. The characters actually had character, learned, and fucking did things. Hoopa gets 1/100 just for these while Diancie gets a big fat 0
