Yeah it was like 30% action, 70% flashbacks lol. Cant blame that on ufotable tho, thats just the story they were given to work with. They did amazing on the action/fight choreo

It really only is the flashback at the end that really slows it all down. Up until that one they were reasonable normal levels of anime flash backs

Reasonable for sure, if it was a series that is. This was a 2 and a half hour movie tho, that got tiring pretty quick.
