your name.
| I gave it a 6/10 just because it had some good moments when they were switching bodies, that was funny. The drama didn't get to me. |
 |
| I gave it a 64/100 even with that amazing visual and music, the story should still be the main aspect afterall. This movie is the worst among Shinkai's works in story department. So without amazing visual and sound it'll go to lower 5 or upper 4. |

| Good story for me, happy end, i press 10/10. |

| Wait, why are we trying to remove one of the most major components of what makes anime anime? I would highly rate an anime with literally no dialogue and the simplest plot that had beautiful art and animation highly because that's the artform. It's ani(mation)me. You can't just say what would your rating be if it weren't for the animation the same you can't say what would the rating be without any dialogue or plot. All of these things are extremely important and Kimi no na Wa is a masterpiece of animation. Hence it getting it's very well-deserved praise in addition to providing a simple, coherent and pleasant story. |

Fair enough, there's was a strong implication to me that art/animation is not as important as straight up story so I was kinda put off :P Without the art/animation factored in, it would definitely be lower. Hard to say, maybe 7/10? So much of the story is actually told visually without words, like that great scene where the dude (forget his name) walks into the center of the crater and drinks the sake. Some really cool birth/re-birth/metaphors stuck in there all just shown through the art. So without it... yah,it's just not the same anime at all. |

| The plot is pretty weak tbh, but it got overshadow by such visuals and music. |
| I agree the plot and the characters are pretty average. main characters are pretty cookie cutter characters but the animation, art and soundtrack are what the studio used to cover that up. If I was going to use an analogy it would be that if anime was a soup the characters and story are the base of the soup. The main ingredients tomato carrot etc. while the animation and soundtrack and meant to just improve the overall flavor spice, seasoning etc. in the movies case, the main ingredients are basic and processed not fresh from the ground giving the soup an average texture and an uninspired taste. but the spices and seasoning used are completely top of the line stuff very expensive and exotic really refining the flavor of the soup and makes it look good but still does not change the texture and the originality of the soup. regular common customers will taste the soup and say its the best thing they have ever taste and only focus there ratings base on the taste forgetting the texture and the dull ingredients that are unrefined. whereas pro critics would appraise the taste but question the process of the orgininal ingredients. but we know that these people are outnumbered by like 30 to 1 so it gets overrated my personal scores story 7 characters 7 sound 9 animation 10 enjoyment 7 overrall 8 |

| I saw it on a big screen and I was sitting a bit far to my liking so at least half the movie I was more focused on the plot itself so I can't really lower the score. So I still rate it 10/10. Had I been sitting closer to the screen where I could've enjoyed the visuals a lot more (I'm not saying I didn't from where I sat, it was still absolutely stunning throughout), I would probably rate it 100/10. Shinkai is my favorite director so I'm juuuuust a bit biased. Just a bit, hehe. |
| Agree with OP. After seeing it on the big screen and being awestruck by the visuals it can be easy to forget the problems, it's got a solid story but had some real glaring plotholes although I need to see it again. Still a solid 7 maybe 8 out of 10. |
