If you didn't know that this was a half recap half welcome to the new season "movie" then that's on you for not doing your own research. The introduction to the swordsmith village arc did the exact same thing with entertainment district so there's no reason this should be a surprise. It was nice to get to see the ending of the last season in the theater. I'm an anime only enjoyer but I have heard a small bit about what's to come and I know that this next arc is not very long so I hope we don't get a 6-7 episode season when they maybe could've rolled it into this movie and cut out the recap. My rating is for the 45 ish minutes of "episode 1" hashira training arc. There is a lot of information and overall it's kinda slow. But it's not pointless talking. It's setting up what's to come very nicely.
