Weathering With You (A Japanese animated film)
"Weathering With You" is a Japanese animated film directed by Makoto Shinkai. Released July 19, 2019.
Story summary:
A high school student who lives in the Izu Islands, Hodaka Morishima, runs away and comes to Tokyo.
That year, the Kanto region is plagued by long rains that continued for more than two months.
Hodaka, who has run out of money, relies on Suga, the president of a small editing production company, whom he met on a ship coming to Tokyo to start working live.
After an incident, Hotaka meets a girl named Hina Amano.
Hina has a mysterious ability to call the clear sky locally by praying to heaven.
Fafrotskies/ Rain of animals:
Raining animals is a rare meteorological phenomenon in which flightless animals fall from the sky. Such occurrences have been reported in many countries throughout history. One hypothesis is that tornadic waterspouts sometimes pick up creatures such as fish or frogs, and carry them for up to several miles. However, this aspect of the phenomenon has never been witnessed by scientists. It is now accepted that there is only co-incidental association between animals perceived to be falling from the sky and meteorological or earthquake-related phenomena.
Relevance to previous work:
In the main part, the main character of "Your Name,"
Taki and Mitsuha appear as cameos. Magazine articles about Comet Tiamat also appear.



Wow this seems like a really cool movie! I think I might have to watch it. The art reminds me a lot of Your Name, and that was one of my favorite/ most memorable anime movies I've watched. Thank you for this!
