Best "Boundary of Emptiness" so far.

Anime adaptation of the 5th chapter of same name novel series written by Nasu Kinoko. Nearly 2 hours of bliss for the fans of "Kara no Kyoukai" contained on the DVD deliver aesthetic pleasure. Interesting story is presented in a ragged pace (not bad in this case) with flashbacks and displayed from the perspective of two main characters (Shiki and Kokutou) as they follow each their own path until everything is clarified at the point of both arcs' convergence. Touko Aozaki also plays a fair part in this episode, which is a pleasure to see as she doesn't get this much action appearences in previous movies.
Animation quality is good, though sometimes it may seem (if you're really picky) that due to the duration of this film the quality of drawings was lessened, but it's still more than acceptable price for such result. Battles look good, though with this cast of characters they can't look bad anyway. It's not only Shiki getting all the battle glory this time, but the magicians as well. And the latter ones are tough even for the Ryougi's mystic eyes...
Soundtrack is on par with those of preceding movies, meaning it's good and seamlessly follows the scenes that make up the whole story. Kalafina's "Sprinter", main composition, is dynamic and a true delight for the ears, worth listening separately.
All in all, it's a fairly action-packed, interesting plot-wise and simply exciting movie. Even people who weren't excited over the first four episodes should like it. Video, beautiful music from Kalafina and Kajiura Yuki, booklet and art pictures all packed in a stylish box. It won't be a disappointment. Definitely.
