This is my first anime movie review. I generally don't watch anime movies but this movie trailer looked interesting so I decided to watch it. I watched this last Friday night. This is my first Makoto Shinkai movie I have ever seen. I decided to review this because I wanted to express how amazing this movie really is. I do not spoil much or at all in this review as I want others to see how great this movie really is.


This masterpiece of a movie is truly amazing in every aspect from start to finish.

The story is about Mitsuha and Taki, who switch bodies at random times, and are trying to figure out why this is happening, as well as adapting to the lives of each other by learning how each other live. They are aware of what is going on so they make rules on what they can and can not do and post them on their phones.


The art is amazing. Great animation, visuals, and design for each character. The colour scheme of the comet is one of the most beautiful thing I have seen in anime.


The audio and soundtrack/background music are amazing. It makes the movie more immersive. Every sound matches the setting of that scene perfectly.


The characters in this movie are superb. I love every single character of this movie from their design to development; how their relationship with each other change from beginning to end.


This movie overflowed me with enjoyment. My emotions were like a rollercoaster. Certain scenes in this movie left me in either awe or tears. I kept wanting to see what was going to happen next and how the main characters end up meeting each other. I also loved learning the culture of the rural area, how things are connected/tied together by Musubi (Japanese god).


Overall, I give this a 10/10. This movie is a MUST watch.
Everything about the movie was great. I don't think their could be anything else that could be improved (of course there's always something).
Thank you Makoto Shinkai for this wonderful experience of a movie.
