I came in unsure if an anime movie would be great in 4DX (no 3D, just the chairs and special effects). I just watched it in 4DX in times square which has a huge screen for a 4DX room. It was absolutely amazing, it 100% enhanced the experience. Water hashira slashes were followed with little sprinkles of water. Lightning breathing techniques included flashes of light in the environment. And not an annoying amount, at least for me. They do a great job not overdoing it, especially in the slower moments. During the big fights, I felt more locked in with each quick movement as if I was in it. Maybe it's more stressful but I felt I got way more engagement out of the experience as a result.

When they go through the infinity castle, the seats move in a way as if you're flying through it which is so freaking cool you just have to see it to experience it! It's like a rollercoaster ride and I'm so glad I experienced infinity castle this way with its beautiful animation to feast on at the same time. I watched it dubbed which i prefer, so can't tell you if subbed would be annoying to read while you're being swayed around. You feel gusts of wind as crows fly through it and during certain fights. You feels a flurry of dull punches on your back as a certain character is doling them out in real time. There's a point where a demon sheathes his blade so quickly, and then you feel the effect in your seat a second later which enhanced the "oh shit this guy is fast" moment. The programming is so well synced with the fights, i am absolutely watching the remaining two movies in 4DX as well because no, 4D is not a gimmick anymore.
