And I wasn't disappointed. The third film is from the POV of Momoko, who we met in the first movie. And what I loved about this movie was how we got her background before Kanna's arrival at their academy and how Momoko played a part of all the events that happened in the first movie as well as what happened after.
I really enjoyed Momoko's character - she came off as kind of the bad guy's sidekick in movie 1, but in this movie, we got to learn and understand Momoko and her motivations.
I loved watching Momoko and all her relationships and I was actually heartbroken for her. She had so much personality and needed a way to express her feelings in a world that she was created to be apart of, but kept kicking her down. When she is at one of her lowests, she meets Hibiki, the villain in the first movie, and from there, their friendship blooms. Even though Hibiki has terrible motivations for wanting to kill Kaki, you kind of want to love him because of who he is when he is around Momoko. Especially that scene in the forest towards the end. Also, the cake scene at the very end. I definitely will watch this movie again. The setting is really cool and we finally got a character with some kind of personality.

Human are more dangerous than demons
A human mad with desire is far more dangerous than any demon." -Ogre,Yes, this quote completely describes the movie, with various human characters showing their vulnerable, wicked, hideous, and ruffian sides only to fulfill their greed of becoming superior.
This was the third installment in the Hanaoni trilogy. This part shows the story of Tochizuka Momoko, who is the bride of a demon but is dumped by her groom. as the story moves forward, I realized that it's the first part of the Hanaoni, but from the perspective of Momoko. It shows why she did crazy stuff in the first part, making Kanna's life difficult in school.
Many sympathize with Momoko, saying she did everything to survive in the school, but doing crazy stuff and plotting against others in whatever condition you are is not right. however, I liked her character shades, proving her vulnerable side as a weak girl, but then a jealous girl showing her evilness. Hibiki was a notorious character who showed his best in end, which fulfilled the purpose of his presence worth in the movie.
The chemistry is amazing, her relationship with Horikawa Hibiki, which keeps getting deeper each day. While appreciating each other better and also accepting each other past, it was pleasing to watch. I liked this movie more because I had a soft stop for Kanna. Her chemistry with Kaki is delightful to watch, although it has less screen-time, it felt satisfying to see them together.
the ending is worth watching, which certainly did not predict but is a great surprise for me. and tell you that I absolutely loved it.
The BGM was repetitive from the previous movies but that was fine as it only enhanced the scene more beautifully.
Having known the story once, which is like I know what's in the box, it wouldn't give the same feel like the first time, while I was curious, but I guess I will give it a rewatch with part 1 of the movie.
