Animation: Great. Excellent combination of normal animation and CG. Just that some things could have been done bettter.
Sound: very good, like the other ST animes (and with the same seiyuus)
Story: Ah, the story.... It takes place when Oogami is still in Paris with the Paris Kagekidan. If this is the first Sakura Taisen anime that you see and you never played a Sakura Taisen game before you'll say: "Eh? WTF is all this about?!?!" followed by a lot of questions, and you won't understand a thing. But if you played the games (or watched the TV series) or managed to follow the OVAs, you'll understand everything (well, most of the things).
Character: Well, since this is only a short movie that lasts 85 minutes.... you cannot develop the characters perfectly. Anyway, they managed to develop the new character, Lachette, pretty well in this short movie.
Value: For a true ST fan, this movie is (or will be) a very important piece of animation that connects the old and the new characters (Sakura Taisen V, where Pattrick appears too).
Enjoyment: It's truly a great film worth rewatching several times, specially if you're a ST fan. If you're not, you still can watch the CG battle scenes, right?

main cast
* Based on the plot of the game Sakura Wars 3.
While the game features Lieutenant Oogami, the main character who takes off for Paris, narrates one side of the story, the movie unveils the secrets behind Hanagumi. Oogami leaves for Paris, consequently leaving Hanagumi without a leader; thus a new character will be introduced here. To be replaced with Lieutenant Oogami is the former leader of Hoshigumi, Ratchet Altair - a rationalistic and distinct individual, who brings about serious problems to Hanagumi. The members are now in discord with Ratchet. Meanwhile, Teikoku Kagekidan was being threatened by some irrelevant demons and a new type of anti-kouma mechas, (brought by an american company) appears and tries to replace the koubu-kai. Having made repeated mistakes due to the absence of Oogami, Hanagumi is now faced with an unprecedented danger, while the abolishment of Teikoku Kagekidan Hanagumi is being schemed.

This tag is intended to be applied to characters who own teddy bears as toys/accessories, and especially to those that carry such toys around with them. A teddy bear that happens to be a character in a show, in and of itself, should be tagged sentient teddy bear instead., teleportationTeleportation is the transfer of matter from one point to another, possibly a distant one, without application of force, and generally instantly. This contradicts scientific law as we know it, and is therefore nowadays impossible. Sometimes it appears as a paranormal or supernatural ability, and sometimes it is shown in science fiction through technological devices backed up by scientific laws yet to be discovered.
