I liked the pacing here much more than the first movie. It still felt a bit rushed compared to the epic fights from the main series, but at 45 minutes, it's hard to expect anything too grandiose. Considering the runtime they had to work with, the fights here were paced in such a way that they had more room to breathe, while still feeling about as short as one would expect. However, the fights taking up more screentime may have unintentionally caused the story to be somewhat thinner than before, with the story beats not carrying much weight at all. We barely even get to know the God Warriors from Asgard, and as such, we're left with some bland, typical foes for the main cast to fend off. The main villain is also less threatening here than he should be, and is pretty much just a carbon copy of the evil pope from the main series. The animation had some nice moments, but it is perhaps less impressive looking than the first film. Still, it's a step up from the main series, and I applaud the moments where the animation really shines. Those moments are definitely worth seeing, and I'd recommend fans of animation check this out simply for that. The soundtrack was acceptable, feeling more or less like the standard fare you'd hear in an episode of the series. It didn't stand out in a good or bad way, for the most part it was just there and did its job well enough. Predictably, this is a decent movie for fans of the series. While it does some things better than the first film, it also does some things worse, so I feel like it's neight better or worse in that regard, just different. I'd say it's worth watching just for the nice moments of animation, but also entirely skippable if you don't care about the animation specifically.
