It's more like, what is not Canon for W?
Every single appearance of W seem to be canon, which is way I love that series so much.
It's more like, what is not Canon for W?
From the description I think what it meant to say when it's "different to the series" in that, even though it's being released in August, it's events take place in the series' timeline back in June so there is the possibility that it's not an AU but more like a side story.
Here's an answer from Shu in an interview with Shu, Miura and Riho.
"We don't know ourselves. But I think it's set during 1-2 days in the TV series."
The producer only said that this is supposed to have happened during June. It's only premiering in August. What happens in August in the TV series will be different from the movie, because the movie has already happened. It's just that the movie isn't going to try and connect itself with the TV series during August.
There's nothing saying that it's not canon in these interviews. But it makes no sense, since Uva is with the other Greeeds doing a group photo.
