Little late for this, but on the topic of memory, Saber is one of those shows that my memory of the bad just seems less comparable to the good every time I reflect on it. I was looking at my old posts for it, and while I found my past self was picking on points of the series I'd come around on since, or at the least decided weren't so big a deal. Do I remember how weird the Lords of Wise being brought back for the finale were? I mean, yeah, but none of that really matters when you have Primitive Dragon reuniting to save Touma's ending like he saved him, or Mei basically saving the world by making a forum post (Seriously, I know "Mei should be a Kamen Rider" is a common take, but I think that's a far stronger use of her both thematically and for the narrative. There's more to being a hero than blowing stuff up!)
And Trio of Deep Sin, I think, follows up on that year or so of thinking back to Saber and thinking "You know what? Actually not bad." It's a very deliberate movie, one that manages to avoid the Build/01 pitfall of making the series ending feel pointless while still contributing something meaningful to the growth of the characters and how they interact with the world. Do I understand what happened at the end, with new Falchion? God no. But that doesn't really matter, because I get what it's saying.
Also Arabiana Knight looks sick, made Kento a character worth paying attention to 10/10 storytelling merchandise division.
