Sin: The Movie

An anime film released in 2000 by ADV Films, intended to be a sequel to the First-Person Shooter SiN (until Emergence was released, leading to the film's Canon Discontinuity status).

Tropes used in Sin: The Movie include:

• Badass Longcoat
• Canon Discontinuity: The release of Emergence makes the film an Alternate Continuity to the series.
• Death Course: The assault on the SinTEK plays out like this, as JC and Blade are dropped midway up the tower, and have to fight their way through floor after floor of enemies (and a miniboss).
• Evil Tower of Ominousness: The SinTEK tower, used as Elexis' base of operations.
• In Their Own Image: Elexis' plan is to turn her army of mutated creatures into the dominant lifeform on the planet, with her being the leader.
• Limited Wardrobe: Much like the game series, Blade's police uniform is the only thing he wears.
• Mercy Kill: Blade does this to JC after he begins his monstrous transformation.
• Start of Darkness: Turns out Elexis was actually a pretty normal, well-adjusted girl until she witnessed her family gunned down by government-sponsored mobsters right in front of her.
• Sudden Sequel Death Syndrome: JC, the most prominent supporting character from the original game and Blade's right-hand man, is killed off minutes into the film when he touches an unknown substance and begins transforming into a mindless abomination, which leads to Blade having to put him down for good.
• Suspiciously Similar Substitute: After JC dies, his sister Jennifer (who is also nicknamed JC, and wears similar glasses as her brother) joins the Hardcorps police force in order to find out who killed her brother.
• We Can Rebuild Him: In a flashback, Blade and his father are gunned down, and he's barely holding on after sustaining serious injuries. He ends up being rebuilt with cybernetic parts.
• Villain Exit Stage Left: Averted. Unlike in the game, Elexis receives a thoroughly well-deserved death at the end of the film. Sure, it's a Disney Villain Death, but this is anime and such deaths are usually definitively fatal.
