Hohoho Merry PINNED COMMENT! This might be the video where we hit 100k everyone, very excited! Thanks of course for stopping by/ being here once again! Had a lot of fun making this one, really wasnt planning on it tbh, but the movie was extremely compelling and after i finished watching it i felt the drive to write immediately. Its nice to be able to take a step back, talk about some Japanese culture and life stuff and just focus on a single small piece of media. I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did! We actually watched this with our patrons this week so if that interests you consider signing up! You also get 15% off that merch i mentioned that way as well so, not a bad deaaallll. (Jus saiyan) Anyway, Happy Holidays everyone! We should have one more video for you before the year is out, would love to see you there! -Mike

Your an amazing writer and this video was great! I wish I could convey my feelings and thoughts so clearly! Also "Weathering with you" is pretty good to, but maybe wait a bit to watch that one. I've seen some people compairing the two and feeling disappointed that it's just more of the same, But I think it stands on it's own pretty well.

I find it kinda funny that we took entirely different things from this movie, were you saw the relation to nature and the kami I saw the changing of fate and the refusal of destiny and I find that really cool.

So, I'm in a weird place with this movie... I was in the deepest depression of my life after my father died, and only watched a few anime here and there, but never really got into it. I had not been able to cry, or really emote at all for months... my wife was getting fed up with me... I had thoughts of suicide... My wife told me I was a shell, and did not have the life and joy that I had used to. However, my entire life changed when I saw "your name." The body swapping actually brought me to it... but what kept me invested was the heart and soul of it. It was the first time I cried in months, and the tears that came wouldn't stop. That was a little over two years ago, and I've watched this movie probably an unhealthy number of times.. I've since become a weeb, and watch quite a lot of seasonal anime along with catching up on classics. But yeah... this movie saved my marriage, and probably saved my life as well. I'm glad you liked it enough to do a video... and I'm grateful to your friend for forcing you to watch it.

Was rooting for both the protagonists and grow to care about them. At first, everything was happy-go-lucky, comedy and then took a dark turn. Mitsuha's death and destruction of the village took by surprise and shook me to the core.

Honestly, for a Shinkai film i feel like it wraps up pretty nicely. If you've seen his other works you know what i mean. I feel like the original ending would have been Taki and Mitsuha passing eachother at that snowy night on the pedestrian bridge, not know eachother but having that gnawing feeling while their distance from another grows bigger and bigger...

@julianriel926

4 жыл бұрын

Even without Shinkai confirmation that they get together, the whole movie is pointing in that direction. The idea of musubi is that they are bound together by fate, that they are destined to be together. They were presented with that opportunity multiple times, but before that final scene didn’t have the courage to stop each other and ask what is your name. But, finally they did. It’s a beautiful movie about actively finding your destiny.

Wolf Children, I want to eat your Pancreas, maybe some other Shinkai films like 5 Centimeters per Second or Garden of Words? Oh, and did you start K-On yet? That one has a movie to wrap things up in a nice english bow string. Stay awesome, my man! #proudpatreon

You have a beautiful way of talking about anime, and the way it ties into our lives, our emotions, and our desires. I first came to your videos looking for validation on anime I loved, and now for the third or fourth time, you've actually made me think about my life at a profound level. Thanks man for what you do.

OH MY GOD! THIS MOVIE WAS THE FIRST ANIME I HAD SEEN IN LIKE 10 YEARS ITS A GOD DAMN BEAUTIFUL PIECE ERMAGERD

Damn the Intro reminded me of how alone I am, and why I love this movie.

Your Name was definitely a special movie and I understand why it was such a blowout smash hit. Incredibly captivating animation, intriguing concepts, a uniquely humorous “oh so Japanese!” tone, and emotionally provoking writing overall. Your Name didn’t hit me as profoundly on an emotional level like A Silent Voice did, but damn was this a good movie! I really hope that Makoto Shinkai releases a director’s cut someday that fleshes out characters and plot points that were left totally unresolved by the end of the movie. That would literally make Your Name the perfect movie for me. 👌🏽

Oooo that ending really tied it together 0.0

"You are late, but you are not Wrong" This Movie is Lot, even though after working 2 and half years, Makoto described it as "Incomplete" and only wished to see it's squeal or redefined version, and ty again for sharing additional information related to this movie

wow this gave me a way greater appreciation for this film, i guess i watched it in a time i was stuck and didnt think about moving forward, i had the same experience with a silent voice, the first time i watched it i thought "that was good" and never any deeper. but once i came to realize that i was in a state without any change, stuck to my past in an attempt to forget it, that i randomly decided to rewatch a silent voice, and it changed my life, i realized that i was almost exactly like shoya was at the start of that film, and seeing him change made me realize what i needed to change, which was trust, or faith in others, or love for others, and not just in a romantic way, but a love like that of brothers, and i now have it, and ive become a much happier and better person for it

Idk why I keep watching videos like this when I know damn well I'm just gonna cry again

After this movie i feel… empty like there’s a hole in my heart and soul that can’t not be filled.

amazing video.

It’s the photo realism of his art. His team is still learning the craft of story telling. But, yeah, when he’s good he’s really good.

Guts cameo just made this video that much better and I couldn't even dream about this being more beautiful (sry for my bad English I am not a native speaker I'm from Germany) I know I butchered something up there... but yes

Been watching your videos all morning at work and I’m so happy to have found a localish New England channel that shares as much passion for anime as I do that shares their perspectives and goes in depth on some of my all time favorite pieces of work. Thanks for killing it 💕

That feeling like I am missing something is all consuming. There is so much of the world that we will never know and sometimes that string breaking only lands us unraveled. Your name shook me to the core and still to this day the thoughts of that barrier of lost love is just...heartbreaking. That loss is one of those things you will always feel in the pit of your stomach. Thanks for this beautiful upload.

I never knew how to feel after watching this movie. My family didn’t get and I couldn’t describe why I loved it so much. but what you said right now somehow sums it up perfectly. I grew up on a mountain before moving to a a city and everyone always said that something in my personality was missing now I realise i’m missing the joy I had to be outside

Everyone needs to check out the manga Your Name Another Side: Earthbound!!!! While it’s the same story it’s the perspective of their friends and family instead!

This film definitely went on my all time/favorites list. For a movie suggestion, I recommend Marie and The Witch's Flower. Also, similar to the themes of this film, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. Idk if you watched it already, but that film is just wow. You have to watch it. And with that, happy holidays. Thank you all for this channel. Enjoy your time, family and friends. And take some time to watch some films recommended to you, but also ones you love that have been on your mind.

Love theese kinda vids

This film is one of the few that almost made me cry. It connected so much deeper than most

I lately (for a month of 2) have been having this exact feeling A LOT, i don't know where it came from and sometimes I feel like I've cracked what it exactly is I'm looking for but those have been fleeting. Maybe it's because my childhood/teenage years is coming to a close which would explain the immense feelings of nostalgia. In any case, Your Name portrays this feeling so well and that's maybe why it hit me so hard, I just watched it and it easily breaks my top 5 most favourtie movies ever. I'm also so happy to realise that a lot of people are feeling this hole, I kinda tought it was just a mostly me-thing

to me this movie is a perfection of what u have explained before the spoiler part. i love the plot and the idea of the anime and weathering with u has a simillar feeling.

Keep up the good work man, highly underrated channel :)

You are nearing the 100k subs mark soon. Congratulations dude. You produce such high quality content. I hope seein more from you. :D

Man, I totally didn't think about the movie in this way. Seeing it explained like this was extremely eye opening and is much more fulfilling. It even provokes me to think about my own life and reflect. Thank you.

This is one of the best videos I've seen about your name, simply fenomenal.

Best video yet, bro. Great job. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

This is a great analysis video! Your Name is one of the best movies I had see in a long time...

anohana and a silent voice hit me a bit harder but THIS is beautiful... well done Mike and all

nice video my dude and yet another home run I have been actively avoiding this movie much like you but after seeing this I think I have to watch it now you have peaked the heck out of my interest and touched my heart with your analysis it's funny that you mentioned New England cause I grew up in New Jersey all my young life in an urban environment but ended up moving to the Berkshires for personal reasons and even though I've have been given ample opportunity to move back to the city living out in the woods is just something that I have fallen in love with and I love the way my life is now with all it's simpleness I could never see myself going back and every time I talk to people who still live there I'm further reminded why it is I stay hitting on those themes really spoke to me on a personal level and now I can't wait to check this out so thank you merry christmas and happy new year I'm really looking forward to your final video of the year since I already know it will be amazing the only thing I don't know is what is will be about but finding out a week from now will no doubt be fun

Beautiful video for one of my fav movies and i love the umbilical cord metaphor for emptiness at the end

The time when i watched this movie I understood it very superficially. For me it was a guy that was willing to do everything in his power to be with the one he loved. Maybe because that's exactly what i was experiencing at the time. But to see that other people took completelly different interpretations out of this story makes me wanna watch it again even though it will bring back some unplaisant memmories from the time I first watched it. This movie is fantastic. It's worth it

When I first heard the story for the movie I fell in love with it and then when I saw it in theaters I became obsessed with it. The message The Love Story everything about is amazing. And the way you sum it up is the perfect summary I could think of. Now I know you were asking for movie recommendations and there's one that really didn't get a lot of love when it was released here in the US it was only for a short period of time but could you review or look into amazing movie that came out last year called "I want to eat your pancreas". There's a light novel in a manga as well and a live-action I haven't seen it I heard it was okay but the movie is amazing. It legitimately asked the question what would you do if you knew you were dying. I highly recommend you try it out when you get a chance and it would be amazing to see if you could do a review or your take on the message.

Oh god. as amazing as this movie looks, i dont know if i could watch it. Watching this video and all the picked out moments and hearing its story, i already want to cry.

#proudpatron really wish I could have finished the second half of the movie during the viewing party 😂. Love you guys! Keep up the good work!

Weird coincidence that you made this video after I finally saw the movie for the first time. Mitsuha has the same voice as Sailor Moon and Ilyasviel von Einsbern.

This was a beautiful movie that I was fortunate enough to see it at Anime Expo as a world Premiere event. He was there, and walked down the aisles of the viewing room, and you could see him enjoy that people got emotional and really into his movie.

I have struggled to formulate the words you have so eloquently formed into the question in the intro. I am intrigued to say the least. Thank you.

Man i thought nux taku was the only anime tuber with video explanations of animes that made masterpieces but after watching 10 of your videos i have to say yall are just as good if not better sometimes keep up the good work.

Damn, I was not expecting a massively touching introspective when I clicked but that’s what I got! I don’t know if you know this or just need to be reminded today but you are REALLY good at this. You get a like and a sub!

I never noticed that the kuchikamizake was half of Taki, great touch. I was to focus on the threads and how fate is unavoidable but gives you plenty of chances to arrange it’s threads in your favor. Holds a special place with me I guess. I loved the ending as well. Great video man, this’ll be like the 6th thing you’ve made me go through a re-watch of :) I’d love to see a video on “The Garden of Words”

It's the feeling that we live for and i can't describe the depth of emotions i felt when i watched this story..

Glad you covered it. What a great movie. Goosebump producing if anything.♥️

This channel has the most positive affect on my existentialism 💕

Can you cover Howls moving castle? You guys covered literally all my other favourite movies already and I love it

I liked what you said at the end, about the umbilical cord. It makes me feel like I have something still attached to me, even when I'm going through tough times.

The part where you talk about Taki and Mitsuha's losing memories on top of the mountain is the perfect way of saying it from all of the other videos ( and 1 video has talked about this I think), something has to be sacrificed leaving the mountain, because of the area's ability to transcend logic and natural conditions of space and time.

The dead eye for the sail really sell the product for me.

#proudpatreon God I love this movie so much. Was great watching this with you guy's on Patreon

An interesting to note at around 9:55: In the background, the clouds are covering the second meteor whole, so it's like they're standing in an instance where the second meteor whole did but didn't happen, a bit like the idea of schrodinger's cat. Alive and not alive, possible but not possible. It's an interesting detail to notice, because as soon as the clouds part again and the lake becomes visible, Mitsuha disappears from the screen.

I'm so late, but I'm glad this passed by my recommended. And yes, I do agree with your claim that the people who live uncomplicated lives are the happiest, and that most of them are somehow connected to nature in some way. Life back then is so, so simple, while the world today is complex and difficult to live in. And usually, the city folks are the most likely to be cynical, pessimistic, and a lot more depressed or more likely to be depressed. I enjoyed this video a lot.

This movie never gets old..

I went to see this movie in theater when it first released because I was bored and by the end I was in tears from how much it touched me

It was one of my First anime movie's before that I didn't used to watch anime movie's ( expect for Pokemon and dragon ball z) but after your name i started to watch more of them.

I really love this movie and I have to say this video was damn poetic. Thanks for sharing!

this is a good ass video thank you! helpful for those 'uh oh' for no reason moments as well, that empty kinda feeling you described. I will try finding out why I have that feeling next time it happens.

i cant watch the movie twice cuz i was satisfied, i wish i could see it again for the first time over and over again

I love this movie its so stunning and amazing and feeling the way of it...

A true masterpiece.

I watched this both subbed and dubbed and still enjoy it, I really thought this romantic film was a beautiful work of art if there’s any anime film that deserves to be in the archives it’s this!

I saw Kimi no Na wa / Your name less than a month ago and oh boy was it something special! It's so gorgeously animated and the plot is very complex and multilayered! No wonder why it managed to do so well three years ago! Also excellent job with the vid, really enjoyed watching! :)) 2:35 okay that got me :---D
