Plot
Ryu goes on a journey with Mario, Luigi and Hello Kitty to destroy Akuma (here, he is called Gouki) who, just like in the original Street Fighter franchise, murdered his master Gouken, and he is joined by a bunch of other characters who are from, or are based in Japan. There is also a subplot with some other Japanese characters (including Jaden Yuki, Hiro Hamada, Hatsune Miku and Chiro) where they need to stop M. Bison and Bowser from kidnapping the innocent civilians from Tokyo.

Why It's Not Kawaii At All

 * 1) Let's get the elephant out of the room. It suffers most of the same problems that United Kingdom: The Movie and The United States Movie: Patriotic Palooza! had, despite being in development hell for 15 years, with the movie being 5 hours long which is an unnecessarily long runtime for an anime film and also the fact that the directors never bothered to check the writing for the film and they had a lot of disagreements about whether this should be a family-friendly film or not, the directors did finally make the decision to make it PG-13 in the end, but it was already too late because the movie was already 90% finished when they made that decision. To make matter's worse, the writers for the film barely knew anything about the original source materials for the characters and therefore, most of the characters have either been flanderized from their original counterparts or have unessary additions to their personalities:
 * 2) *Ryu, although still a likable character as the main protagonist, is always depressed and rarely feels happy until the end of the movie, and he always throws a Hadoken at anyone if they annoy him just a little bit.
 * 3) *Mario and Luigi are now overly obsessed with pasta and only care about wanting to go back to Brooklyn instead of helping everyone that is in need.
 * 4) *Peach is now a hardcore feminist and an SJW who gets triggered by almost anything, she even has a massive hate boner towards people who are anti-SJW and hates men, even Mario.
 * 5) *Yoshi is now a hyperactive freak who screams all the time, and also has a recurring joke where he pees himself whenever he gets scared by something. He screams so much in the film that he could be comparable to Fred Figglehorn in Fred: The Movie albeit not as unlikeable.
 * 6) *Wario doesn't contribute to the movie at all and only exists for toilet humor.
 * 7) *Waluigi is now a completely useless sidekick to Wario and he became a massive coward.
 * 8) *Daisy becomes this overly optimistic and immature idiot princess to the point that it becomes annoying. She's so annoying that it can be compared to SpongeBob's flanderization in seasons 6-8 albeit more mature.
 * 9) *Toad is now a punching bag who has a really mean spirited gag of getting hurt, though he is still likeable.
 * 10) *Link is now a psychopath who only kills people for his mild enjoyment and has no empathy for the feelings towards others.
 * 11) *Hello Kitty is now a bossy and spoiled jerk who throws tantrums whenever someone ignores her or they disagree with her actions, she is also a massive butt-monkey too, since every other cat in the movie always tries to make sexual advantages towards her, despite being underaged.
 * 12) *Dear Daniel is now a horny, creepy boy who masturbates all the time and is only interested in having sex with Hello Kitty, despite being underaged.
 * 13) *My Melody is now a punching bag who keeps hurting herself by almost anything, and she cries a lot.
 * 14) *Purin is now an offensive stereotype of french people and obsesses over painting naked portraits of women for no reason at all.
 * 15) *Badtz-Maru is now a stereotype of "hip and trendy" kids who only uses his phone nearly all the time and won't stop bragging about how he is "the most famous person on Tik Tok".
 * 16) *Cinnamoroll is now a glutton who eats junk from garbage bins and has a disgusting recurring joke where she vomits out her food.
 * 17) *Retsuko has no relatability and often chews out at anyone who tries their hardest to make her feel comfortable about herself, even going as far as to attempt to stab people with a knife.
 * 18) *Haida is flat-out abusive towards Retsuko, often engaging in domestic violence when he gets mad at her.
 * 19) *Isabelle from Animal Crossing is now a depressed edge-lord who only ever finds comfort in taking her own life away, she can also be treated as a very negative portrayal of how people suffer from depression.
 * 20) *Even though all of the Animal Crossing villagers have had more unique personalities compared to the ones in the game, their personalities in this movie do not match their characters in the slightest:
 * 21) **Rosie is just an annoying Mary Sue who thinks that everything in the world is perfect and that nothing can wrong.
 * 22) **Bob is now a lazy slob who has very bad flatulence and by near the end of the movie, he gets obese and has a heart attack. Luckily, he does survive it though.
 * 23) **Raymond is nothing more than a weak nerd who gets bullied 24/7 by the Cranky and Snooty villagers from Animal Crossing and is basically the cat version of Milhouse from The Simpsons without any of the charm of the said character.
 * 24) **Marshall is nothing more than a stereotype of British people, even though Marshall was never confirmed to be British by Nintendo, his love for tea and crackers are so exaggerated that he basically becomes an unfunny version of Wallace from Wallace & Gromit.
 * 25) **Ankha is now a porn star who keeps encouraging people to make more Rule 34 art of her.
 * 26) **Sherb is now a spoiled brat who hates "girly things" and only cares about "boy things", even going as far as to insult Hello Kitty all because her brand is marketed towards girls.
 * 27) **Apple basically cares for nothing more than just eating apples and she likes collecting the "ripest apples in the world", hence her name.
 * 28) **Stinky is just a disgusting knucklehead who only likes rummaging garbage bins for no reason and has a massive hatred for taking baths and showers.
 * 29) *Sailor Moon has gone from being an immature, but brave magical girl to a generic Gen Z stereotype that always does cringeworthy TikTok dances and Internet challenges.
 * 30) *Kirby is now a glutton who eats almost anything he sees, though he is still a likable and adorable character.
 * 31) *Tiff and Tuff have been reduced to being absolutely useless and they seemingly do not want to help anyone in battle, not even Kirby.
 * 32) *Jibanyan is nothing more than an annoying loud-mouth who always tries to make sure that every battle goes completely the way that he plans it, and resorts to throwing tantrums when it doesn't. He is also now a pervert who loves looking at porn of everyone and will brutally murder anyone who doesn't like porn.
 * 33) *Komasan doesn't serve that much to the movie other than only being there to boast at the other main characters about how "cute he looks". Obviously, this gets very annoying after a while, and even the movie's writing seems to acknowledge the fact that everyone is irritated by it.
 * 34) *Vegeta is now obsessed with the number 9000.
 * 35) *Jin Kazama is a generic edgelord who hardly feels happy.
 * 36) *Even some (if not all) of the main characters in the Fire Emblem series feel out of character. Marth is a goody-two-shoes stereotype who is bland, Alm for some reason has as hate boner for women (even Celica!), Celica is reduced to a dumbo who can't even read, Hector acts like Cyborg from TTG and gives bad morals which constantly annoys Lyn and Eliwood, Eirika and Ephraim are now this brother and sister rivals (but they forgive each other at the end), and Chrom does questionable moments that goes against his status as a hero.
 * 37) *Luffy loves to steal treasure from anyone he sees.
 * 38) *Hiro the Train is a xenophobe who refuses to work with those with different cultures. He's also a hypocrite since he's befriended Thomas as well as the other people from Sodor.
 * 39) *Sakura Kusagano only exists for fanservice and panty shots.
 * 40) *Bandanna Waddle Dee is boring, grumpy guy who always complains constantly about how he didn't make it into Smash.
 * 41) *Fox McCloud is now an incompetent pilot for keeps forgetting on how to use the arwing and always crashes in them, he is so stupid that he makes Slippy Toad look smart in comparison.
 * 42) *Falco Lombardi is now an aggressive, foul-mouthed jerk who beats up people for no reason.
 * 43) *Pikachu is now a sociopath who constantly shoots electricity at anyone, even Trainer Red.
 * 44) *Jigglypuff is now an offensive stereotype of people with ADHD, as she has mental breakdowns nearly all the time, gets overly excited over things and is so crazy that she makes Dizzy from Bob the Builder look tame in comparison.
 * 45) *Eevee is now a crybaby who whines all the time about not getting to eat what she wants to eat.
 * 46) *Sonic is now a bumbling buffoon who always runs fast, and refuses to slow down. He even caused a category 10 hurricane.
 * 47) *AiAi is now crazy obsessed with bananas and will go as far as to kill people if someone even attempts at trying to take them.
 * 48) *MeeMee is now a perfectionist who tries to find "the ripest bananas in the world" and hates bananas that are not fresh.
 * 49) *Minoru Mineta and Katsuki Bakugo are even worse compared to their characterizations in My Hero Academia, they don't even have redeeming qualities in the movie as Mineta is only here for filler.
 * 50) *The Dancers of Koi from Just Dance 2022 (despite being created by Ubisoft) don't act anything like their original incarnations:
 * 51) **P2 is anti-Korean, and wants to bomb South Korea just because they created K-Pop, making him a xenophobe.
 * 52) **P1, now has a crazy obsession with bootleg games, and workships them like they're gifts from god.
 * 53) **P3 is mostly portrayed as an Texan stereotype, that is obsessed with AKB48, and has a massive hatred for The Pussycat Dolls. She also wants to cancel Level Up P2, Felicia, and Nicole Watterson on Twitter for no reason at all.
 * 54) *Peni Parker is an anime worshiper who goes after those that like cartoons.
 * 55) *Ami is a hyperactive idiot who can't sit still.
 * 56) *PaRappa is a rap elitist who dislikes modern rap music, although, he still comes across as a likable character.
 * 57) *Arle Nadja and Rulue are now reduced into Bugs Bunny/Daffy Duck wannabe rivals despite the fact that Arle is more neutral towards Rulue and Rulue doesn't really despise her. Even Arle goes after Amitie and Ringo for being main characters as well which proves that she's a selfish girl.
 * 58) *Amitie is still friendly, but she becomes so friendly that she becomes a big hippie simp.
 * 59) *Pac-Man is a glutton who steals food from others and relies on gross jokes, he also never gets punished for stealing food.
 * 60) *Ringo is reduced to a generic know-it-all who thinks she is smarter than anyone else.
 * 61) *Athena Asamiya is now portrayed as a J-Pop fanatic who chooses J-Pop over important things. She even crossed the line by wishing death on those who are k-pop stars. How rude.
 * 62) *Miko (despite being created by Nickelodeon) is now a weeaboo who rejects the fact that she's Japanese-American.
 * 63) *Even most of the Phantom Thieves (except Joker) are flanderized as well:
 * 64) **Ryuji becomes a numb-nut, and not a likeable one, as he always tries seek attention to everyone around him.
 * 65) **Ann is an SJW who tries to convince women that men are evil.
 * 66) **Yusuke is an elitist hipster, but compared to the thieves, he is more likeable.
 * 67) **Makoto is reduced into a bigger bossy asshole who think she has the authority to shut everyone up, when she doesn't. She always uses Godwin's Law on Ryuji as well.
 * 68) **Futaba is a couch potato that is worse than Beast Boy from mh:terribletvshows:Teen Titans Go!.
 * 69) **Goro is obsessed with eating delicious pancakes that it's like he can't function without them for one day.
 * 70) **Haru is a massive spoiled brat who acts like Angelica Pickles from Rugrats, in which she bullies people that have done nothing to her other than for her own mild enjoyment.
 * 71) **Sumire is just a mary-sue who has absolutely no personality or character development whatsoever, and she contributes nothing noteworthy or important to the story, you could take her out and nothing would happen!
 * 72) **Out of all the thieves, Morgana has the biggest flanderization of all whereas he has no redeeming qualities, always goes after those who call him a cat, is a massive punching bag, commits despicable and unforgivable crimes, tries to make sexual advances towards Hello Kitty, is a Karma Houdini, and wishes death on Teddie and Koromaru. His incarnation in this movie is so bad that it made his entire character as whole to be hated, in similar manner to how Dizzy from Bob the Builder became a hated character due to her awful incarnation in United Kingdom: The Movie.
 * 73) *Momoka Akatsutsumi (Hyper Blossom) is even more obsessed with sweets than she was in Powerpuff Girls Z.
 * 74) *Nobita Nobi became a huge punching bag who constantly gets bullied by everyone for no good reason at all, although he's still likable.
 * 75) *Shizuka became even more of a Mary Sue than she already was and overpraises Nobita to death.
 * 76) *Gian and Suneo seems to abuse Nobita way too much, and mostly out of spite.
 * 77) *The two Japanese engines from Thomas & Friends have no purpose to be in this film other than to provide comedy. In fact, they can be compared to Logging Locos.
 * 78) Some pointless guest appearances from random celebrities are here too, they're thankfully not as frequent as the previous two movies, but they're still forced in nonetheless:
 * 79) *Avril Lavigne has a pretty pointless cameo just so she could sing her song, "Hello Kitty".
 * 80) *Lady Gaga and Katy Perry's cameo are forced in too, and when they are on-screen, they look like they don't want to be there.
 * 81) This film panders heavily to weeaboos, because the film outright insults American culture by portraying Americans as lazy, fast-food eating racists, yet this film is also disrespecting Japanese culture too, as the film only praises Japan for pop culture and nothing else.
 * 82) *This film also seems to be Korean culture too since there was one scene where Kirby swallows Pororo and Crong by accident and Mario praises him for it.
 * 83) *There is even one scene where Mario straight up says that "Family Guy and The Simpsons were both never funny and never will be, and anyone who likes those shows are idiots", that line is not only offensive towards people who are fans of those shows, but also implies that the writers have a bias towards those shows in particular.
 * 84) The film can't decide its target audience as it features characters from video games made for children, yet there is tons of sexual content and violence in this movie, and 99.9% of them are way too inappropriate for a PG-13 movie. Some examples of this include:
 * 85) *The one infamous scene that promotes hentai and Rule 34 art of family-friendly characters to children.
 * 86) *Koi P2 raping Kyung, So, Hea, and Bong (Aka The Dancers of Boombayah (Extreme Version)) just for being Korean, which is incredibly xenophobic.
 * 87) *The scene where Raymond from Animal Crossing, Morgana and Dear Daniel watch the infamous Ankha Zone video and both masturbate to it.
 * 88) *The scene where Dear Daniel starts touching Hello Kitty's private parts and forcefully has sex with her.
 * 89) *Mario and Luigi saying words that sound similar to racist slurs, such as one scene where they called a black person a "knicker", but the way they say it almost sounds like they are saying the N-word.
 * 90) *Ankha attempting to have sex with a Liepard.
 * 91) *The party scene where Ankha becomes full-looner and begins to masturbate with a balloon, with the squeak sounds and soft texture of the balloon causing her to ejaculate.
 * 92) *Jibanyan shoving his penis up Isabelle's face.
 * 93) *The worst possible scene has to be the part where Morgana kisses Hello Kitty on the mouth, which she originally denied, and then Morgana makes tons of advances and tries to do things that she didn't want to do. What makes it even worse is that he never gets punished for it, and Hello Kitty doesn't even try to tell anyone about what happened, due to her being worried that Morgana will kill her for doing so.
 * 94) *Perhaps the most infamous part of the movie is during the tickle scene, is one of Chaos Zero's hands tickling Jaden Yuki's exposed marquise-shaped deep navel! And even more infamously, the camera actually does a ZOOM-IN on Jaden's exposed navel during that scene not once...but THREE TIMES!!! They even do that to Chiro's navel as well (albeit only once)! No, we're not joking, that does happen.
 * 95) **On that subject, during that part, Jaden says a very infamous line during that scene "No, not my...belly button!", which is also very inappropriate to say in the movie.
 * 96) ** These scenes actually spawned so much controversies that most of them were cut during future releases on Blu-Ray, DVD, digital distribution and streaming services.
 * 97) The jokes are dumb and fall flat, they usually consist of awfully timed puns that make zero sense whatsoever, or they are usually based around anime memes, or just internet memes in general.
 * 98) *In one scene, Mario and Sonic have an argument about if the Super Famicom or Mega Drive is better, and Omochao comes out of nowhere and says "This is one of the top 10 anime battles of all time!"
 * 99) *Before the infamous scene where Morgana makes sexual advantages towards Hello Kitty, he says "I'm going to do a Careless Whisker!", which is an embarrassingly awful line and only serves as nothing but a reference to the George Michael song, "Careless Whisper".
 * 100) *While in McDonald's, Mario makes a desperate reference to Hotel Mario, by saying "You know what they say? All deep dryers, fry fries!", which is a reference to the "All toasters, toast toast!" scene.
 * 101) *Also while in McDonald's, Jaden makes a sexual reference to the Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures episode "Is Zit You or Is Zit Me?" by saying "Oh boy, I'm so hot!", which is a reference to the "Aw man, I'm a meme" scene.
 * 102) *On the way to the television station, Peni sees Jaden on the TV screen by saying "Oh no, he's absolutely sexy!", which is a combination of references to the "Oh no, he's hot!" and "My name's Jaden Yuki, and I'm absolutely flawless" scenes.
 * 103) There are tons of shameless product placements in the form of Nintendo, Sega, Namco, Capcom, SNK, Bandai, Toshiba, Pocky, Sony, Maruchan, Lotte, Panasonic, McDonald's, Sanrio, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Honda, Temco, NHK, TV Tokyo, Tamogatchi, Famitsu, TV Asahi, Aniplex, Pioneer, Vocaloid, etc.
 * 104) There are so many useless filler scenes in this movie that it could surpass the number of filler episodes that Naruto has.
 * 105) *Mario and Luigi trying to back to Brooklyn.
 * 106) *The characters eating typical Japanese foods, such as ramen noodles, katsu (breaded pork cutlets), rice balls, sushi, mochi ice cream, chicken teriyaki, calamari, tempura, miso soup, etc.
 * 107) *Sonic challenging Mega Man to a drift race.
 * 108) *Doraemon eating Dorayaki for 2 minutes.
 * 109) *Nico Yazawa shouting a really loud "NICO NICO NII!!!" from the top of Mt. Fuji.
 * 110) *Momoko Akatsutsumi eating too many sweets and getting a stomach ache.
 * 111) *Beat vandalizing Tokyo Tower, despite Hiro Hamada telling him not to do it.
 * 112) *Ankha, Raymond and Rosie searching up Google pictures of themselves, in which nothing really happens and it is literally just a still shot of all three of them looking at the computer screen while you can hear sounds of mouse clicking. To make matter's worse, it goes on for five whole minutes.
 * 113) *Miko going on a quest to go catch some glitches as she would do in Glitch Techs. However, she fails.
 * 114) *King DeDeDe and Meta Knight arguing whether to go to a maid cafe or to the Kirby Cafe.
 * 115) *Trainer Red trying to catch a Mewtwo.
 * 116) *Pikachu, Jigglypuff and Eevee competing in the "Pokémon Olympics" despite it not having any impact or importance on the story, neither is it mentioned who won in the race until the last few scenes of the film.
 * 117) *Hello Kitty and Dear Daniel saying extremely dirty and sexual chat-up lines.
 * 118) *Kuki Sanban starting a cult revolving around rainbow monkeys.
 * 119) *An extremely cringe-worthy scene of Avril Lavigne singing her song, "Hello Kitty", for some reason, her singing sounds worse than how it did in the original song. It's so bad that all the character booed at her when she was singing, even Hello Kitty herself hated it and threw a tantrum in the scene where it happened.
 * 120) *A disgusting scene involving Morgana and Pikachu committing horrific crimes, including robbing shops, abusing animals, shooting up schools, etc. It also gave the song "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" by Starship a horrible name since the song played during the scene.
 * 121) *In the Japanese version of the film, we see Nakoruru reading The Lorax in Engrish which is offensive.
 * 122) *Link and Mario trying to kill Ganondorf who isn't even trying to do anything evil.
 * 123) *All of the characters doing an awful cover of "Snow Halation" from Love Live, "Jump Up Super Star" from Super Mario Odyssey, and "Last Surprise" from Persona 5.
 * 124) *The characters attending a summer festival, and that scene lasts for 30 minutes.
 * 125) *Isabelle contemplating suicide and she even has an imagination scene where she hangs herself with a rope.
 * 126) *Koi P3 trying to cancel Level Up P2, Felicia, and Nicole Watterson on Twitter, but fails. There is also a scene of her visiting the AKB48 theater in Tokyo.
 * 127) *AiAi and MeeMee trying to fly to an island full of bananas with their gliders, but they keep failing miserably.
 * 128) *The female characters going to the beach, which is about as long as your typical anime swimsuit episode and contributes nothing to the main plot.
 * 129) *Jaden Yuki challenging Chiro to a duel, complete with Western tropes such as dramatic close ups, music and a tumbleweed before one of them makes their move.
 * 130) Sometimes, the movie tries too hard at adding in pop-culture references to movies, TV shows, video games and even random internet memes that have nothing to do with Japan, some scenes include:
 * 131) *The scene which parodies mh:greatestmovies:2001: A Space Odyssey by having Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, AiAi and MeeMee beat King K. Rool with bones because he stole AiAi's bananas while "Also Sprach Zarathustra" plays, although the scene is actually pretty funny.
 * 132) *Morgana fooling Mario and Luigi by having Angels With Filthy Souls play in the background after Mario and Luigi knock on the door outside, as a reference to mh:greatestmovies:Home Alone.
 * 133) *Doraemon, Rosie from Animal Crossing and Hello Kitty singing "Nyan Cat".
 * 134) *Mario and Sonic having a Jedi styled battle as a reference to Star Wars.
 * 135) *Wario and Waluigi singing "We Are Number One" from LazyTown.
 * 136) *Toad singing "Get Up Offa That Thing" by James Brown complete with Keegan Micahel-Key being Toad's singing voice, as an obvious mh:greatestmovies:Robots refrence.
 * 137) *Jibanyan singing R.E.S.P.E.C.T by Aretha Franklin.
 * 138) *Jaden looking hot up close on the screen of the TV station building as a reference to the January 2012 TV Xuxa intro.
 * 139) *Chiro screaming loudly as a reference to the scene from the Phineas & Ferb episode "Cheer Up Candace".
 * 140) False advertising:
 * 141) *The film's trailer hinted that M. Bison, Bowser, Bowser Junior, Shadow Queen, Dimentio, Fawful, Ganon, Dark Matter, Magalor, Daroach, N.M.E., Marx, Sepiroth, Giovanni, Cyrus, Dr. Willy, Dr. Eggman, Heihachi Mishima, Ancient Ogre, Ridley, Andross, Skeleton King, King Piccolo, Queen Beryl, Zeref, Heathcliff (Sword Art Online), Dio Brando, All For One, Monokuma, Black Shadow, Giygas, Kyubey, and Sigma would be the main villans, when it's actually Gouki that is the main villain. The other villains that do appear are only there for filler and serve no purpose to the story.
 * 142) **The main poster even has M. Bison, Bowser and Bowser Junior in them despite the fact that they are clearly not the main villains and are actually the villains of the subplot.
 * 143) *One of the posters misleadingly depicts Ash Ketchum as Pikachu's trainer, yet he is nowhere to be seen in the movie and is replaced by Trainer Red.
 * 144) Bland soundtrack that mostly consists of J-Pop, music from video games, and music that has nothing to do with Japan, though it does try to be vibrant.
 * 145) The movie rehashes elements from United Kingdom: The Movie and The United States Movie: Patriotic Palooza!, with it using the same concept and formula as those ones, despite the story being different.
 * 146) *As a matter of fact, it even reuses some songs that played in those movies.
 * 147) Despite the movie being made in Japan, Japanese stereotypes are somehow present in the film.
 * 148) The cat bus is just terrifying.
 * 149) There are some awful pieces of dialogue in the movie, with some of them being "so bad, they're great", or just straight up awful, some include:
 * 150) *"I'm going to do a Careless Whisker!" - Morgana
 * 151) *"Life is worse than dying…" - Isabelle
 * 152) *"YOU TOOK MY BANANAS, YOU PENIS FACE!" - AiAi
 * 153) *"I like touching you, Kitty" - Dear Daniel
 * 154) *"You know what they say? All deep fryers, fry fries!" - Super Mario
 * 155) *"Baths and showers stink!" - Stinky
 * 156) *"I am now going to attempt suicide" - Jibanyan
 * 157) *"Oh no, he's absolutely sexy!" - Peni Parker
 * 158) * "No, not my… belly button!" - Jaden Yuki
 * 159) The twist villain of the film is Harvey Weinstein of all people and he has been flanderized to a demon in human form and turns into a demon in the end.
 * 160) * Not just that there is a scene when he works with the Nazis which sure Weinstein is infamous but he is not a Nazi for Pete's sake. Not just that but there is a scene when Gouki who somehow changed side later on in the film said "You're worst than Hitler!".
 * 161) ** This shows that someone who writes this is using Godwin's law.
 * 162) *Also, Harvey Weinstein has absolutely nothing to do with Japan, so why is he in this film to begin with?
 * 163) Executive Meddling: The film was originally made to be a tribute to Japan. However, the five major studios in America starts to join in the making of the film who are Pro-SJWs and want to make a movie about the MeToo movement. This leads to the problem shown above.
 * 164) * Not just that but there also hired Kid Trunks and Goten writing the film who are only kids.
 * 165) There is a very pointless and unnecessary subplot that involves M. Bison, Bowser and Bowser Junior wanting to kidnap every single person in Tokyo, but they (you guessed it) completely fail in the end.
 * 166) *What makes it even more pointless is that it has no impact on the main story at all.
 * 167) Despite not being a musical, there is an entire scene before the ending credits where all the characters in the movie sing a musical number named "What Happened Today", it is ridiculously long and the singing is off-key and the characters sound like they were making up the lyrics as they went along.
 * 168) Overuse of stock sound effects, particularly anime and Hanna-Barbera sound effects.
 * 169) The beatnik catgirl sounds like she’s drunk and horrible depressed.

UNDER CONSTRUCTION…

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) There are a few characters that are either improved from their original counterparts or were fortunate enough to not get flanderized, such as Gouki, E. Honda, Toadsworth, Tippi, Goombella, Paper Mario, Zelda, Bowser, Bowser Junior, Doraemon, Rosalina, GonGon, Mimmy White, Kuromi, Gudetama, Tom Nook, Timmy and Tommy, Meta Knight, Peppy Hare, Trainer Red, Madoka Kaname, Kimi Finster, Son Goku, Ponyo, Hiro Hamada, Hatsune Miku, Yugi Muto, Jaden Yuki, Chiro and many others.
 * 2) *Tom Nook is actually surprisingly likeable throughout the entire movie and not once does he act like a jerk to anyone in the movie.
 * 3) *Kuromi is still an enjoyable rival to My Melody and although she still does hold a grudge against her, she is actually much nicer to her than she was in the anime.
 * 4) *Zelda is very heroic and is shown to be more than just a damsel in distress.
 * 5) *Timmy and Tommy are one of the most likeable and adorable characters in the movie despite not getting enough screen time.
 * 6) *Doraemon is a very likeable character and often has some very heartfelt moments.
 * 7) *Meta Knight is probably the most enjoyable character in the movie and is often considered to be the highlight of the movie.
 * 8) *Bowser and Bowser Junior both have a heartfelt relationship with each other.
 * 9) *Gouki is awesome as the main villain.
 * 10) *Jaden Yuki is a very relatable and handsome duelist, and has heartwarming moments. He's also the highlight of the movie due to his hot-blooded personality and punk design. Much better than Ankha, right?
 * 11) *Hiro Hamada is very heroic genius, as he doesn't vandalize Tokyo Tower like Beat does.
 * 12) *Chiro is very smart and a heroic leader of the Hyperforce, as he doesn't eat too much sweets like Momoko does.
 * 13) *Hatsune Miku is a nice singer, as she doesn't wish K-Pop idols dead like Athena does.
 * 14) Great voice acting, as most of the voice actors reprise their roles. In addition to this, some of the new voice actors for some characters are very good, most notably Vanessa M. Pareja's (also known as Vannamelon on YouTube) role as Isabelle.
 * 15) The fight scenes are amazing, especially the final battle with Ryu and Gouki.
 * 16) PaRappa's line: YOU ENTITLED PIECE OF CRAP!!! is so funny, it managed to become an internet meme.
 * 17) The scene where Bowser and Bowser Junior are talking to each other about their time together is one of the most heartwarming moments in the movie.
 * 18) Some of the soundtracks are good to listen to:
 * 19) *An orchestral remix of the Famicom Disk startup was a good music choice for the prologue.
 * 20) *Some of the remixes to random themes from Japanese media are nice to listen to.
 * 21) *The erotic bossa nova/funk-style porn music in the party scene sounds amazing.
 * 22) *Depsite the song itself having nothing to do with Japan, the Japanese parody version of "We Didn't Start The Fire" by Billy Joel, which is sung by Mario, Doraemon, Hello Kitty, Pac-Man and Isabelle, is really good.
 * 23) *Jaden performing the "Night Trip" Eurobeat song is a huge improvement to the said song from Initial D Fourth Stage, as it's way better and different than the previous version by an unknown male vocalist (SylverR). On that subject, his singing voice in both English and Japanese versions is amazing.
 * 24) Even though the pop-culture references are annoying and have nothing to do with Japan, some of them can be quite funny, such as the scene where Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, AiAi and MeeMee attack King K. Rool with bones while "Also Sprach Zarathustra" plays, as a hilarious parody to the Dawn of Man scene in mh:greatestmovies:2001: A Space Odyssey.
 * 25) Some of the jokes can actually be quite funny, such as the jury scene which is a funny parody of Dick Bruna (the creator of Miffy) giving Sanrio a lawsuit against their character Cathy.

Critical Reception
Japan: The Movie was widely panned by critics and audiences alike, it is widely considered to be one of (if not) the worst movies ever made, it was mainly criticised for the flanderizations of several characters, the unusual story, filler-worthy scenes, and the insane amount of sexual content. The film currently holds a 1.8/10 rating on IMDb, a 0% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes and has a weighted score of 9 out of 100 on Metacritic, indicating "overwhelmingly negative reviews". Rotten Tomatoes' critical consensus states: "Aside from the faithful character designs, fantastic variety of characters, great animation and voice acting, Japan: The Movie has ultimately nothing redeeming about it, it's the complete opposite of kawaii".

Box Office
Unlike United Kingdom: The Movie and The United States Movie: Patriotic Palooza!, which were box office hits, this movie did very poorly when it released in theaters, only making $240.1 million in the box office worldwide compared to a $240 million budget, making it a box office bomb.
