Writing "I love you" left Mitsuha remember the feeling of being love and letting her to continue living the life she deserve. The heart will never forget.

Your Name was beautiful, I laughed, I cried, I felt nostalgia, I was homesick for places I had never even been, I wanted them together so badly, absolutely HEAVENLY visuals, engaging and bittersweet story and most of all, It increased my love for Japan and especially Tokyo tenfold. The way that Japan is presented makes me ache to be there, I don't know why but, I have entirely fallen in love with Japan in the same way that I would fall in love with a person, it's so different everywhere you go, for me, being in Japan is like constantly being a child, discovering everything for the first time, it's like a whole day spent blackberry picking in the autumn, but it's also like flying upwards and breaking through the clouds to the rays of the sun. I may be some weaboo on the internet, but I have discovered my one true love in Japan.

[@monochromaticrookie]

If you read the novel, it adds so much more depth to the entire work. As compared to Shinkai's previous works, Kimi no Na Wa's novel was written after the film, whereas most of his other works has him writing the novel in conjunction or before the movie has been released. As explained by Shinkai in the novel's end note, the movie provides a third person's view at the whole scenario whereas the novel gives you a more intimate first person's view at everything. It's even better when you read the way the work was conceptualised and how much the music ties in with the movie.

[@zanniia7279]

Victor Lukianto Would this be a good book to read before seeing the movie? I've already seen the movie twice, but I'd like to show someone the movie so I can watch it with someone, but they aren't super interested in anime, so possibly reading the book could get them interested?

[@monochromaticrookie]

I think so? Haha most of my friends watched the movie itself before entertaining the thought of the novel (because currently there are no English translation AFAIKF), but yea maybe the book could make them change their mind. It helps to widen your understanding of the work

Just watched Your Name recently. This is pretty much my favourite anime film and quite possibly one of my favourite films of all time. It was just so potently beautiful and emotional. I'd love to see more analysis of the scenes in this movie, particularly the montage scene near the middle of the movie

[@warman13x]

Qwem Lhjsi I think I kinda feel the same way. While I'm not sure if it's my favorite anime film of all time, it's definitely up there. This movie was an incredible experience, and I'm so glad I got the chance to see it on the big screen.

[@buckwade3874]

Why did the movie appeal to you so much?

[@qwemlhjsi4386]

Buck Wade for one, I loved how simplistic the elements of the story were and how thoroughly and uniquely they were explored. I feel like they did a fantastic job with punctuating the powerful and emotional moments with the visuals and music. The music for the movie is incredibly well chosen for those scenes as well. For instance, the opening and the montage scene near the middle of the movie were key examples of why I liked the film so much.

[@warman13x]

Buck Wade You're probably not asking me, but I'll try to help answer your question. Firstly, the presentation. The gorgeous backgrounds and settings along with the pretty decent looking and very well animated character designs give the film an amazing look. And when they mix up the visual style at some points in the film, it looks absolutely phenomenal. There are a few setpieces like the talk at twilight which and the comet falling which are absolutely breathtaking as well. The score is also pretty good, and the soundtrack/insert songs by radwimps are just perfectly used in my opinion. Another reason is that it appealed to both me and my SO on an emotional level. This obviously won't happen with everyone, and I can't perfectly articulate why it did so, but this film made me feel many different emotions incredibly strongly. My best guess as to why this happened is that the presentation going from light and fun to incredibly somber and tense, mixed with the pretty great characters, and a sudden twist in the story drew me in incredibly well. Since I'm not sure if you've seen it or not, I'm going to be as vague as possible. But setting it up as a simple body swap comedy and pulling the rug out from under you was done very well. It didn't feel forced due to the foreshadowing, and it's hard not to feel anything when you find out what happened to Mitsuha and her village. Giving you time to get attached to the characters and letting you have as much fun as they were having with the body swapping really​ helps sell the emotions of suddenly losing all of that. And to briefly touch on the characters, I really liked them and think they had a lot of personality to them. Setting the film as a flashback draws you into the struggle of Mitsuha and Taki, and then you get to spend a pretty large amount of time with them just fooling around with swapping bodies. They both have different goals which is always a good thing for a character, and they're both pretty relatable as well. It's also a nice touch to have one of them live in the country and the other in the city because it helps showcase the struggles of both. Most people will relate to the struggles of one or both of them at least a little. It was also incredibly entertaining to see them develop​their friendship which eventually turns into romance. (Which I do personally think was done well, but I understand why some people don't agree.) To sum all of this up, it's a great movie that succeeds in basically every area, even excelling in a few like the presentation. It gives you time to breathe and get attached to the characters, and then pulls the rug out from under them and under you. It made me feel many emotions incredibly strongly, and that's all because the story, characters, art, and music were done so incredibly well. But more than anything else, it was just an incredible experience. It's more than the sum of the parts I was talking about, and it just resonated with me incredibly strongly.

[@buckwade3874]

+Daniel Hughes I was asking you and Qwem Lhjsi, because I have little clue why people love it so much. Based on what you said, it sounds as though I watched the film without much expectations. Maybe that's why it bored me. What you've said is REALLY making me consider watching the film again.

[@guguyao]

The reason that there are red lines in those animes is because of the meaning behind the re lines. Red lines "赤い糸" ore "红线" in East Asia is a representation of relationship between people, specially romantic relationship. In Chinese mythology there is even a god call the Yue Lao who controls the red line.

[@guguyao]

Just check "Red string of fate" on google.

[@Hakajin]

"Yue?" Like, "moon?" That's interesting -- I wonder if the idea of romantic love and fate is connected with the moon in Chinese mythology?

[@andrewkissell9996]

Hakajin That May be so. At least in the Japanese language I think the word for “love” sounds kind of similar to the word for “moon.” In the movie A Silent Voice (an amazing film) there was a situation where the word for “love” was misheard by one of the characters to be to word for “moon.” So I think there probably is a connection there.

But if you think psychologically, his thoughts and emotion (can be observed through his/her chains). You'll probably understand the "drift" of the comment. "Small words, deep meaning" as I would say.

[@Nif-kun]

Let me make this clear. I did not specify any type of chains he was in, I said he has appeared in more than two. Next, I did not say he has "Insulted anyone for their opinions", "Demanded they believe him", and "Claimed his opinions were facts". As I said "if you think psychologically", I don't wanna type down a whole Wikipedia of what I mean by psychologically. So I'll break it down on my own term; My opinion. "You seem to be everywhere in the comment section, spreading "negativity"." My opinion. "You seem" was already a hint on to it. I did not condemn what he/she was doing. I simply said what I wanna say, opinion in other words. Also, tone down the "all". You're stating everyone. Not everyone is a "one liner".

[@Nif-kun]

"your confusing the heck out of your audience". You mean i'm confusing you, stop putting everyone in it. Your understanding in the term "all" is "vague". "literally everyone" *sigh*. "Why not put in a bunch? Why not talk to a BUNCH of people?" That's exactly what they're doing outside of KZbin.

Watched this on the plane back from Japan, even on a shitty little United Airlines screen it looked amazing and was funny as hell to boot.

[@JonathanChenentercreativeurl]

Big T. Larrity i watched it on Japan airlines and then in theatres - both times were fuckin sweet

[@noisepollution4473]

"The style is the substance." You summed up a feeling I have about a lot of stuff that I love in five words.

[@Satopi3104]

It doesn't really matter but the crosswalk after the date and the cross walk where they miss each other aren't the same. The first is in roppongi without a doubt due to the street signs and roppongi hills in the background and the second is probably in shinjuku, which is where taki lives. As you note the backgrounds in this film are crazily realistic, to the point that I was able to get a sense of where Taki lives from the scene where mizuha first steps outside of taki's apartment because landmarks like roppongi hills, midtown and Tokyo tower are drawn so clearly. Hell, the building across the street from my old house was clearly visible. By contrast, mizuha's hometown is fictional (although the region it's in and the towns nearby that get featured when taki goes to look for her are totally real) and has this dreamy, not quite real feeling to it from the beginning. I found myself trying to figure out where it is wondering if there even is a place like it or it's just supposed to be a composite of many other beautiful rural towns, but when I saw the scene they visit the place where the god body is I knew then that the rural scenes are not supposed to be taken literally.

[@machintosh3008]

Spoiler for those of you who haven't seen Weathering with you yet. You know that Taki and Mitsuha are in weathering with you, meaning... weathering with you takes place in the same universe as Your Name, there are also hints. The final scenes of your name when Taki is in the cafe, it's raining. And after the rain, it starts snowing, and on Weathering with you there is a scene where Its raining then it starts snowing. And when Taki and Mitsuha are running around trying to find each other, there's a bunch of puddles, meaning it stopped raining. And that means it's the morning of the day when Hina sacrificed herself. And there is a huge stormy looking cloud, and on weathering with you, the scene where Hodoka is running on the tracks, theres a huge stormy looking cloud.

[@gus9351]

@@myth3300 Actually it doesn't, as you can see, the ending of your name showed time passing and showed cherry blossoms in the ground meaning it is spring, even in the ending it's still is spring and as we know the sunshine only lasted for a day and it's suppoed to be summer, not spring. Unless of course they're not in tokyo in which case it makes perfect sense

[@mariaijebd1637]

This might contain spoliers If you read the novel of Weathering with you, at the end when Hodaka goes to Taki's grandmother's house, he sees a photo of Taki's wedding. So, hopefully he married Mitsuha 😆😆😆

[@rodp8984]

I just watched my FIRST anime movie and holy wow what a start. This was absolutely amazing it literally pulled my heart out of my chest idk how I stumbled upon this but I am so glad I did.

[@classysheep6163]

There is no physical way i can legally consume this film is Australia. RIP

[@SaiyanQuad92]

DIO BRANDO Illegally then...

[@classysheep6163]

exactly

[@carltonlee17]

ur fucking Dio, why bother legal

[@classysheep6163]

I DIO. Will give credit where credit is due and "try" to consume "QUALITY" content the most legal way possible.

[@corre3sazq]

DIO BRANDO same hear. I did end up watching through a friend, and I enjoyed it a lot. If you really wanna support it, the best thing to do is buy it legit when it's finally released. At least that's what I plan on doing. It may be more expensive then the cinema, but if it's for something you enjoyed and wanna support, there is no better way. (Plus owning the physical media is always damn cool.)

[@jamjar2820]

“Especially when you watch this op over and over again” *winks in insanity*

[@splatttt]

Helps that RADWIMPS did the song... seriously, I've been listening to that song on repeat since I saw the movie a couple weeks ago. HELP

[@Elizabeth-iv2pr]

Just discovered this yesterday and now I am obsessed, I got to admit i only took this long because I thought that the title "your name" meant it was a choose your own adventure when I saw it on Netflix.

[@relan5960]

"Your Name." Made me cry because its everything in that anime that was me...

[@roxifellian]

It only gets better after the OP. I can’t wait until “Weathering with You”

[@shay6281]

im seeing weathering with you in theater. i cant wait for it

[@ahiyanmaleek2952]

When she finds "I love you" on her hand instead of his name, It hit me right hard in the feels

[@BunkyBunk___]

I don't know why but whenever I hear the name of this movie I automatically think your name in April for some damn reason, like i get your lie in April and your name mixed up, I'm so dumb😆

[@yun7703]

Dragonchat lmao same, that anime was also really good imo. Sad asf tho.

[@britneewashington4106]

Probably because both give you depression

[@DavidAgolli]

Dragonchat kimi no na wa (your name) Shigatsu wa Kimi no uso(your lie in april)

[@mfc3553]

That one broke me! Damn it.

[@mr.popohere1645]

i cri evritiem :'(

[@ydb82]

Ähm ok. O.o

[@connorfleming4670]

Honestly it might be my favorite movie. I am an artist so the beauty of this movie takes my breath away. I know it has flaws but to me it's perfect

[@AWetCARROT1]

Seen a ton of your videos but I'm subbing for Your Name. Best film ever can't wait for more on it.

[@buckwade3874]

I'm pretty sure Jeoff isn't gonna make any more vids on it...POSSIBLY, a "What's in a scene", but his content doesn't tend to repeat itself... Unless it's SAO

[@patrickdawson6281]

I didn't know movies had op's I've only seen shell

[@iamalittleboat]

they usually don't

[@futret1614]

Shell got an opening (kind of)

[@JoshLeitzel]

Patrick Dawson They almost never do, but this one did. It was kind of jarring at first but it actually fits really well.

[@jayveealvarez4718]

I prefer it to be called OST rather than an OP

[@TobeydoSomething]

ost is only the sound, that is retarded.

[@inoob26]

This movie is basically the filler episodes of any typical fantasy anime combined into a film with the exception that *everything is fucking beautiful, I mean look at that rain animation*

[@MATTierial]

GamingJar OMG yes, that rain animation! Especially near the end, there's a particular scene where it's dropping into a puddle, and each drop creates ripples that are painstakingly animated individually and are affected by each other! This movie is BEAUTIFUL!

[@AnimeSummit]

Not really, because the story is impactful. Filler episodes aren't impactful.

[@qwemlhjsi4386]

GamingJar wait, how?

[@buckwade3874]

+Anime Summit I can understand why people love the movie aesthetically, but on a storytelling level? What story is there? The two leads are bland in terms of design and personality, existing solely so the audience can self-insert (same strategy that Romeo and Juliet used), have 0 romantic chemistry, no dialogue that indicates a deeper connection, they interact like business partners.

[@inoob26]

+Kazai Ah, it seems you misunderstood what I meant. What I mean about this movie feeling like a filler episode as in the story of the movie if was part of an anime series will most likely be condensed into a 5~10 minute long narration. In some anime this was done when it is adapted from a LN, for example Re:Zero condensed the story about Wilhelm from an entire LN into a narration tool within the featured episode. In other words, Wilhelm's story alone is capable of being an entire story line for a featured film while at the same time is considered as a filler to the main series

[@pragatikullu966]

I can't praise you enough for noticing and explaining the littlest details in the movie which makes the movie even more beautiful.

[@imtired1051]

RADWIMPS did an awesome job on this soundtrack

[@elronman]

God this movie was too fucking good. honestly go watch it. I went in with stupid high expectations and was blown away

[@BigT.Larrity]

This movie was pretty fucking great.

[@an1mesh]

Please suggest me more anime movies like this.

[@icetigeryurio2721]

I’m sure you’ve heard this but “a silent voice” or basically any other film written by kimi no na wa’s director whose name has slipped my memory

[@AndresGarcia-kq2ir]

IceTiger Yurio Makoto Shinkai

[@icetigeryurio2721]

Andres Garcia ah thanks :)

[@miacat6582]

Wolf Children is also a really good anime movie. You won't regret watching it!

[@keiichimorisato98]

Place promised in our early days.

[@Brutaka1]

Every time I hear that intro I cry. Literally, that beat from where the song kicks off with the guy giving off a high pitch note to the solo just makes me tear up. This movie is incredibly emotional and the best anime movie of all time.

[@soapyb2738]

this makes me sound like a bad person but when I first watched your name i bawled my eyes out so i made my mom watch it and she cried a little and i was sort of happy that she felt the same way as i did

[@ruby8065]

It's my favourite film period.

[@3gs.nation]

They are making a live action film to your name and I just hope they do it justice.. this film is to beautiful to be soiled by a live action adaptation but at the same time I’m super excited that they are making it.

[@Andrew.J.Markle]

"Gives us a happy ending for the first time in his miserable god damn life!" My thoughts were the same my friend. Lmao

[@lordofgraphite]

seen this twice, but I now have a much greater appreciation for this film, you are very very good at reviewing films

[@saorineko936]

OMG, Not gonna lie! I love this anime with my whole heart! I listen its soundtrack everyday and all the time and rewatch it almost every week. And even now after 5 years from wathing it for the first time I'm still wathing videos like yours

[@iloverem2471]

Pls hit my head so i can forget everything so i can watch this again with the same vibes

[@NoN-ji5wd]

Mitsuha (Her time is 3 years before Taki's in the movie) She says that Taki is the same as her when they switch bodies. So when they see each other again Mitsuha is 3 years older than Taki.

[@TheMidnightwolf15]

Just watched it today and I really loved it. Your Name is so deserving of its praise. Both it and A Silent Voice are both beautiful films and I personally highly recommend both :)

[@mypowerlevelisover9000]

Nice now I want a 9 hours version of this for the whole movie

[@raadzz9341]

Got back into anime a little bit ago and watching stuff like Your Name and A Silent Voice is just genuine bliss

[@SoloSnivy]

Ya better do A Silent Voice when it comes out in the states. It's too good..

[@leonardofernandes9922]

It's definitely a lot better than your name, and I haven't even watched it.

[@Thegigachad248]

Too bad it hasn't even been licensed in the states, yet.

[@JoshLeitzel]

Leonardo Fernandes Lol, what? That makes no sense and just sounds contrarian.

[@Shokamoka]

I've seen it and will have to point out that for 'teenage/youth feel/enjoyment', Kimi no Na Wa. is the way to go. If you want a full emotion rollercoaster then get ready, Koe no Katachi will absolutely take you for a round of laughs, anger, sadness and happiness in that exact order. Koe no Katachi literally makes Kimi no Na Wa. Look like a pure slice of life anime that does poorly in romance department.

[@niello5944]

Reaaaad the manga!!!

[@Aether-azurr]

I once did a reveiw for school on this movie, I choose it myself. Im glad I did, beacause my teacher said it makes them want to watch the movie, and I said it was on netflix on the reveiw, so its a possibility.

[@maggie4784]

I LOVE THIS FILM OMG, and omg i died by the scene with the i love you omg i started crying so bad

[@houdini1226]

Great video. Also, I personally really like the music playing in the background quietly.

[@Viscarra23]

Loved your name and a silent voice, both really well put together and overall both very touching stories.

[@earnestbrown6524]

Man takes almost a year to get this movie in a theater in my area of the US, but F-ing SAO is out in a month. The only justice is Your Name is still playing in the Austin area after 2 weeks, and SAO only had a one day event. How long are we going to have to wait for A Silent Voice?

[@boltmix7359]

Optimistic Otaku I'm sure you have the barin capacity to write an objective review.

[@thydentark]

'barin'

[@PvtPrivate]

When you mentioned spoilers, I paused the video, then watched the entire video first so you can no longer spoil it :). After that, I resumed watching this video.

[@parwez6173]

Every second of this movie can be a wallpaper

[@amanirfan7486]

The only bad thing about this movie is that i sets the bar really high for all anime and since im just starting to get into anime, the void will never be fulfilled

[@shirolee]

that explanation was so awesome! makes me realize how much detail was placed just in the op

[@shubhojitbandyopadyay6386]

The graphics of this movie, is just....uh I can't explain in simple words. I have seen the movie 5-6 times. But I never get bored watching it. It was my first Anime movie, when I was getting into Anime. And dayuum,I was shocked, that Anime could be this great. It will remain my fav movie of all time... :-)... Don't you think guys/girls..??

[@wowsame6408]

yeah i agree!

[@roshgilluw]

you watched it 5-6 times already? i first watched it yesterday at the time of writing this, and i made a promise to myself that every 8 months i will watch the movie, so.. next time i watch the movie will be december

[@emilimarc]

Watch Akira 1988, akira has better animation and the plot is epic.

[@pussypussymylove3594]

I wish we all experience a life like Taki and Mitsuha....

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

the 2 funniest moments of the video, more or less quoted: "because they had to save their budget somewhere" "and unambiguosly happy ending for the 1° time in his miserable god damn life"

[@hanbrianlee]

man just wanna comment that this movie was so mind-capturing. my gosh it feels good thinking about the time I watched it. I guess such feeling is what you get after experiencing exquisite art.

[@jimmy3656]

U FINALLY DID IT!!!!!!!!! I was waiting so long for u to analyse Kimi No Na Wa, as I loved ur Shigatsu Wa Kimi No Uso analysis, rant of hate on Sword Art Online, and comparison of Baby Steps.

[@chingboc8]

Damn why is my name so heartbreaking, I can't fill out my resume without crying

The best fucking movie

[@caitie8921]

This movie has me so fucked up almost a year after I watched it for the first time that I started crying just from watching this video. How?? Can a movie be this good????

[@swungsilver7945]

Caitlin Rodgers those scenes still give me goosebumps

[@Rocknelson4]

I stopped the video to compliment the fantastic editing when you give the spoiler warning and edited in the clouds moving pass the camera in the exact same way it does in the movie but it goes from movie to you back to movie. Phenomenal. Ten out of ten. Ok, I'll finish the video now.

[@squirrel670]

i was crying the whole film halfway where tears just fall from your eyes and you cant stop, and theres the emotion generating them in your face.
