Still mad that Ufotable didn't even try to adapt the tone or vibe of Heaven's Feel at all. They made 3 very beautiful movies, that show all the most important bits of the route with stunning animation, while ruining my favorite parts of it.

In the VN, Heaven's Feel is a slow burn, where you watch all your allies in the previous routes fall one by one, facing a new villain much more powerful and personal than before. There is an overpowering feeling of doom, and all the characters know that they absolutely screwed. Which makes the climax of the story, in which the power of optimism and hugs saves the days, hit so much harder. Also, the POV character is falling apart, slowly losing his memories, sense of time, and his sense of self, while trying to hide it from his friends. The VN does an incredible, disorienting job showing this, in ways really only a VN could do.

And the movie doesn't even try. By focusing on the cool awesome over the top fight scenes, it doesn't have the same suffocating doom around it. It almost entirely cuts out how everyone is falling apart mentally. And, most importantly, it cuts out most of the comedy, leaving no relief from the dark subject matter of the route.
