| Nice, I have been waiting for this. Looking forward to another visual masterpiece. |
 |
| The synopsis sounds interesting. I'm always looking for anime and manga that deals with heavy topics (Liar Game, Kodomo no Jikan, Fullmetal Alchemist, Spirited Away ... you know the type) so you can be sure I'm keeping my eye on this one |
 |
| Hope it turns out great. It probably will. |
 |
| can't wait! i'm sure it'll be excellent. |
| Plot looks good. Will be watching it :3 |
| sounds good but the title sounds real sus~ |
 I signed my screen and now its all smeary "When you meet your God tell him to leave me alone." check out my bloghttp://corpse69.wordpress.com/ fix MAL already |
| Making a road movie , can't wait to see the final effect. |
| Plot seems interesting, going to watch it |
| Awesome! I've been yearning for a new Shinkai Project |
| Great news! I'm looking forward to it! |
| Definitely going to watch this! Let's see what type of masterpiece he'll show this time. |
| The synopsis kind of makes it sound like Kino's Journey. |
| doesn't sound bad |
| Hope it will be as good as his previous work or EVEN better than it. |

| Omoshiroi~ |
| I loved 5 centimeters per Second and his other works so I will definitely be following this. Can't wait for it. |
tehnominator said: Scenery porn and melancholy. Can't get enough of it. Couldn't have said it better myself. Bring it on. |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| (I have) Nothing but HIGH expectations for this ^^ |
"Dream of nothing and wake to a dream come true."     |
| Looking forward for another heart-warming movie and of course a depressing, sad ending =p Fingers X, hope it will be a somehow nice ending |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| Hopefully, his new film will have a happy ending (I really like Place Promised in Our Early Days, but 5cm depressed the hell outta me...) |
| Spoilers: It's gonna have a shitty soul crushing ending. |
| Ok™ |
| cool... i geuss... |

| aka 5 cm/sec 2.0: the sequel, this time starring the lovelorn lives of the children of the main characters of 5 cm... in 3D |

| Are you ready for clouds?! |
| Sweet. Been waiting on another Shinkai work for a long time. |
 |
| Sounds interesting, maybe I'll watch it. :3 |

 Waratte Oemashou Sore ha Chiisana Inori |
| Interesting. Will be looking forward to this ;D |

| "...our faces marked by toil, by deceptions, by success, by love; our weary eyes looking still, looking always, looking anxiously for something out of life, that while it is expected is already gone – has passed unseen, in a sigh, in a flash – together with the youth, with the strength, with the romance of illusions.” - Joseph Conrad ('Youth') |
TreF said: Will it be able to top 5cm? 5cm per second was overrated crap. It took the exact same idea as Voices of a distant star and stretched it out to an hour and a half. Hopefully this fellow starts trying to change his style a little bit. |

It took the exact same idea as Voices of a distant star and stretched it out to an hour and a half. Have you really watched those two movies ? 5cm per second lasts 1 hour... The only similarity is the theme of distance, a theme that Shinkai seems to like ^^ 1 hour? *checks* Holy &^%*! I couldve sworn that was 3 hours long... |

| Sounds like a masterpiece. |

 |
| I can't wait to make my heart feel all weird and ripped apart again. :D |
| Expecting lots of clouds/sunsets/general scenery porn. Plot sounds pretty vague and a lot like everything Shinkai's ever done. I'm definitely on board though, just with some reservations. I'd love to see him try something new that doesn't involve teens/young adults going through some melancholic romance. |
 |
| Oh hell yeah |
