Japanese anime has a lot of good movie's to watch, like the most famous movie from Hayao Miyazaki "Spirted away," most of Hayao Miyazaki project is always on the top of the rank of a Japanese film.On October 21st, 2016, there was a Japanese phenomenon came on the big screen "Your name." This was the highest grossing film of that year, the movie made it to the second place in the history of the Japanese films(quite amazing ), there are lots of comments about the movie, about 99% said it was really good. It's a beautiful and attractive movie, has good characters, the emotion is in good detail, the background music gives the full expression to the movie, of course. Lastly, it has a strong ending to it, makes people want to watch the movie again and again. ​

​ The meteoroids shoot down the sky" I always feel I'm trying to search for something or someone." The story begins, it's talking about two characters. Mitsuha a high school-age girl who lives in Itomori, a quaint village in the Hida region of Japan; Taki is a slightly "kind of" an older boy living in Tokyo(Why I say kind of, you will find out later). One day, Mitsuha woke up in Tokyo in the body of Taki, and on the other hand, Taki wakes up and looks down and see breasts. He’s in Mitsuha’s body. A lot of people besides them discuss they are acting weird and strange, that's how the both of them know that they are switching bodies they contact with each other with smartphone messages and diaries to keep up each other life what he/she is doing when they are not inside their own body. This kind of movie is fun to me because it lets the boy knows how the girl life like so as the girl knows what the boy's life like, it would be an interesting experience if it happened to me personally. Ok back to the story, one day they didn't switch, Taki was worried about what happened, but then Taki found out Mitsuha was dead three years ago by the meteoroid, which was shown at the beginning of the movie. That's why said kind of if it was in the same timeline Taki will be older than Mitsuha, but actually, Taki is smaller than Mitsuha by three years. When I was watching this part, I was confused, so I watched it again and figured it out. After that, the story gets a little "magic." Taki went back of time and saved the village, but the consequence of this is forgetting about her. Of course, at last, they met each other a few years later, asking each other "Kimi no Nawa."

I liked the movie very much like almost everything, the plot, settings of the character, the drawings are very in detailed, and the music connects with the story perfectly. What I most liked about the story is where the story starts, it shows how the two main character is changing their body and getting shocked, it was quite funny at the moment, even though it uses the music too quickly fly by the time , but the beat of the story didn't get ruined, I think this part that the director did a great job on it. The background music is like the"soul" of the movie, the music is made by Radwmips, it gives you an excitement about the movie, makes you want to keep watching. ​

​ I know that there are a lot of Japanese movies, uses this kind of topic, but what I liked about this film is that the director of the movie Makoto Shinkai uses a little bit of sadness at end and uses a scene at the end, that will let us be very intense, and will the audience say"why don't they be together already!!!?" This kind technique has a connection with the audience, will think about the times that when they have love, I believe this is the main reason why this movie is a big hit."Your name" shows everyone that young people have a memorable love story, because of the irony of fate, had to separate and never have the opportunity to see each other.When the times get older, we will forget the precious times they have, but deep inside you, you will still find the heart that you use to have, and the purest yearn and feeling that being touched.
