I just hope that this time he manages to put a good story together since it looks like as if this movie actually has a story and is not "slice of life" only like "5cm per second". The place promised in our early days was rather disappointing in the story-telling departement.

Is that a Japanese cinema release in May 2011? If so when will we get a chance to watch it??

I've waited too long for this, def'n holding high expectations. Shinkai mentioned that a major theme is going to be "distance" like 5cm so I'm expecting another gloomy/melancholic movie. Although 5cm was a success, Shinkai and his work is still minor/underrated so I hope this will be the movie that puts his name up there, at least to the same lvl as Tokikake & Summer Wars. cant wait
Shinkai is actually pretty popular among directors. ^^ He currently holds the title, "The Next Miyazaki" Which is definitely appropriate. Although, a bit more fame wouldn't hurt =] He deserves to be known by everyone. He really is a great anime director! :D

Has the same art directer and animation directer as 5cm, as well as the guy who made the music from all his recent movies, as well as the ef series.
This is definitely going on my Plan to Watch list...as soon as someone adds it to MAL! =)

I'm expecting a lot, and from what I've seen, the artwork's gonna be breathtaking as expected, and the movie's probably gonna be amazing. But I wonder if it can top 5 cm/s...
