Plot

In 2013, Mitsuha Miyamizu is a high school girl living in the rural town of Itomori, Japan. Bored of the town, she wishes to be a Tokyo boy in her next life. One day, she inexplicably begins to switch bodies intermittently with Taki Tachibana, a high school boy in Tokyo. Thus, when they wake up as each other on some mornings, they must live through the other's respective activities and social interactions for the day. They learn they can communicate with each other by leaving messages on paper, phones, and sometimes on each other's skin. Mitsuha (in Taki's body) sets Taki up on a date with coworker Miki Okudera, while Taki (in Mitsuha's body) causes Mitsuha to become popular at school. One day, Taki (in Mitsuha's body) accompanies Mitsuha's grandmother Hitoha and younger sister Yotsuha to leave the ritual alcohol kuchikamizake, made by the sisters, as an offering at the Shinto shrine located on a mountaintop outside the town. It is believed to represent the body of the village guardian god ruling over human connections and time. Taki reads a note from Mitsuha about the comet Tiamat, expected to pass nearest to Earth on the day of the autumn festival. The next day, Taki wakes up in his body and goes on a date with Miki, who tells him she enjoyed the date but also that she can tell he is preoccupied with thoughts of someone else. Taki attempts to call Mitsuha on the phone, but cannot reach her as the body-switching ends.

Taki, Miki, and their friend Tsukasa travel to Gifu by train on a trip to Hida in search of Mitsuha. However, Taki does not know the name of Itomori, relying on his sketches of the surrounding landscape from memory. A restaurant owner in Takayama is from Itomori and recognizes the town in the sketch. He takes Taki and his friends to the ruins of Itomori, which has been destroyed and where 500 residents were killed when Tiamat unexpectedly fragmented as it passed by Earth three years earlier. Taki observes Mitsuha's messages disappear from his phone, and his memories of her begin to gradually fade, realizing the two were also separated by time, as he is in 2016. Taki finds Mitsuha's name in the record of fatalities. While Miki and Tsukasa return to Tokyo, Taki journeys to the shrine, hoping to reconnect with Mitsuha and warn her about Tiamat. There, Taki drinks Mitsuha's kuchikamizake and then lapses into a vision, where he glimpses Mitsuha's past. He also recalls that he encountered Mitsuha on a train when she came to Tokyo the day before the event to find him, though Taki did not recognize her as the body-switching was yet to occur in his timeframe. Before leaving the train in embarrassment, Mitsuha had handed him her hair ribbon, which he has since worn on his wrist as a good-luck charm.

Taki wakes up in Mitsuha's body at her house on the morning of the festival. Hitoha deduces what has happened and tells him the body-switching ability has been passed down in her family as caretakers of the shrine. Taki convinces Tessie and Sayaka, two of Mitsuha's friends, to get the townspeople to evacuate Itomori, by disabling the electrical substation and broadcasting a false emergency alert. Taki heads to the shrine, realizing that Mitsuha must be in his body there, while Mitsuha wakes up in Taki's body. At sunset, the two sense each other's presence on the mountaintop but are separated due to contrasting timeframes and cannot see each other. When twilight falls,[note 1] they return to their own bodies and see each other in person. After Taki returns Mitsuha's ribbon, they attempt to write their names on each other's palms so that they will remember each other. However, before Mitsuha can write hers, twilight passes, and they revert to their respective timeframes. When the evacuation plan fails, Mitsuha has to convince her father, Toshiki, the mayor of Itomori, to evacuate everyone. Before doing so, Mitsuha notices her memories of Taki are fading away and discovers he wrote "I love you" on her hand instead of his own name. After Tiamat crashes, Taki returns to his own timeframe and remembers nothing.

Five years later, Taki, having graduated from university, is searching for a job. He senses he has lost something vital that he cannot identify, and feels inexplicable interest in the events surrounding Tiamat, now eight years in the past: Itomori was destroyed, but all of its people survived as they had evacuated just in time. Mitsuha has since moved to Tokyo. Sometime later, Taki and Mitsuha glimpse each other when their respective trains pass each other and are instantly drawn to seek one another, disembarking and racing to find the other, finally meeting at the stairs of Suga Shrine [ja]. Taki calls out to Mitsuha, saying that he feels he knows her, and she responds likewise. Having finally found what each had long searched for, they shed tears of happiness and simultaneously ask each other for their name.

Characters

Taki Tachibana (立花 瀧, Tachibana Taki)
Voiced by: Ryunosuke Kamiki[6] (Japanese); Michael Sinterniklaas (English)[7][8]
A high school boy in Tokyo. He is a 17-year-old student in his third year at Tokyo Metropolitan High School. He is a talented sketch artist and has aspirations to be an architect. He is short-tempered but well-meaning and kind. He spends time with Miki Okudera, working in a part-time job as a waiter at the Italian restaurant "Il Giardino delle Parole".[b] A running gag in the film is that whenever Taki wakes up and realizes he has swapped bodies with Mitsuha that day, he immediately begins to fondle "his" breasts in amazement, only stopping once Mitsuha's sister, Yotsuha, sees her. Mitsuha teasingly calls him out for the habit when they meet in person for the first time during twilight. Taki later appeared in Shinkai's next film Weathering with You.

He lives with his father, who works at Kasumigaseki; Shinkai states, "I think his mother divorced his father a few years ago."[9]

Mitsuha Miyamizu (宮水 三葉, Miyamizu Mitsuha)
Voiced by: Mone Kamishiraishi[6] (Japanese); Stephanie Sheh[8] (English)
A high school girl dissatisfied with her life in Itomori, a mountainous and rural town of Gifu Prefecture. She is a 17-year-old student in her second year at Itomori High School, but in reality is three years older than Taki. Mitsuha is usually seen with her hair tied up with a dark red braided ribbon that she made by hand herself. She and her sister are maidens of the family shrine. After her mother died, her father abandoned the shrine to pursue politics. She lives with her maternal grandmother, Hitoha, and her younger sister, Yotsuha, who is in elementary school. Mitsuha wishes to have a better life in Tokyo than having unavoidable encounters in the small town with her estranged father, the mayor, as well as her role as a shrine maiden (miko) in rituals for her mother's family shrine including making kuchikamizake, an ancient traditional way of making sake by chewing rice and spitting it back out to be fermented - all of which attracts mockery and disdain from her classmates. When switching bodies with Taki, Mitsuha forbids him from looking at or touching her body. Mitsuha later appeared in Shinkai's next film Weathering with You.
Her birthday contradicts with the film's setting that she is 17 years old in the summer of her second year in high school, because as Shinkai says, "In their mind, they both kind of assumed that they were both born on December 1."[9]
Katsuhiko "Tessie" Teshigawara (勅使河原 克彦, Teshigawara Katsuhiko)
Voiced by: Ryo Narita[7] (Japanese); Kyle Hebert[8] (English)

He is the son of the president of a local construction company, Teshigawara Construction. He is a lover of the monthly occult magazine MU (ja) and a mechanical geek. He has a 50-50 love/hate relationship with his hometown,[d] Itomori, and from his own perspective, he initiates concrete measures to improve the town's situation,[e] which earns him the sympathy of Taki (physically, Mitsuha).
In the epilogue, he talks about his upcoming marriage to Sayaka.
Teshigawara is named after Shoko Aizawa's middle school friend, Teshigawara, who appears in the seventh episode of Shinkai's novel The Garden of Words (Kotonoha no Niwa).[9][10]
Sayaka Natori (名取 早耶香, Natori Sayaka)
Voiced by: Aoi Yūki[7] (Japanese); Cassandra Morris[8] (English)
One of Mitsuha's classmates and her best friend; as of 2013, she is 17 years old.[c] She has a calm but nervous personality and has a crush on Tessie. She is part of the school's radio broadcasting club, so she is tasked by Taki and Tessie with broadcasting the false emergency evacuation alert. Her sister, who works at the town hall, makes a brief appearance in the film.
Sayaka is named after a friend of Shoko Aizawa's from middle school, who appears in the seventh episode of Shinkai's novel The Garden of Words.[9][10]

She develops closer feelings for Taki when Mitsuha inhabits his body. She is a smoker, which Tsukasa discovers when they spend a night together while accompanying Taki on his search for Mitsuha. She is more commonly referred to as Ms. Okudera (Okudera-senpai) by her colleagues.
When she meets Taki in 2021 after a long time, she is wearing an engagement ring and tells him that she is getting married soon. According to Shinkai: "It's just a backstory, but I believe that Tsukasa is engaged to Okudera."[9] In the original novel, she is described as working at the Chiba branch of an apparel manufacturer as of 2021.

In September 2013, she was living in Tokyo,[13] but as for why she is in Itomori in this film, the pamphlet states that it is "up to the viewer's imagination."[14]

Production

The idea for this story came to Shinkai after he visited Yuriage, Natori, Miyagi Prefecture in July 2011, after the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred. He said, "This could have been my town." He said that he wanted to make a movie in which the positions of the people in Yuriage would be swapped with the viewers. The sketches that Shinkai drew during this visit have been shown in exhibitions.[15]

In Makoto Shinkai's proposal sent to Toho on September 14, 2014, the film was originally titled Yume to Shiriseba (夢と知りせば, If I Knew It Was a Dream), derived from a passage in a waka, or "Japanese poem", attributed to Ono no Komachi.[16] Its title was later changed to Kimi no Musubime (きみの結びめ, Your Connection) and Kimi wa Kono Sekai no Hanbun (きみはこの世界のはんぶん, You Are Half of This World) before becoming Kimi no Na Wa.[17] On December 31, 2014, Shinkai announced that he had been spending his days writing storyboard for this film.[18]

Inspiration for the story came from works including Shūzō Oshimi's Inside Mari, Rumiko Takahashi's Ranma ½, the Heian period novel Torikaebaya Monogatari, and Greg Egan's short story The Safe-Deposit Box.[19] Shinkai also cited Interstellar (2014) by Christopher Nolan as an influence.[20]

While the town of Itomori, one of the film's settings, is fictional, the film drew inspirations from real-life locations that provided a backdrop for the town. Such locations include the city of Hida in Gifu Prefecture and its library, Hida City Library.[21]

Music

Yojiro Noda, the lead vocalist of the Japanese rock band Radwimps, composed the theme music of Your Name. Director Makoto Shinkai requested him to compose its music "in a way that the music will (supplement) the dialogue or monologue of the characters".[22] Your Name features the following songs performed by Radwimps:

  • "Yumetōrō" (夢灯籠, Yumetōrō, lit. "Dream Lantern")
  • "Zenzenzense" (前前前世, Zenzenzense, lit. "Past Past Past Life")[22]
  • "Sparkle" (スパークル, Supākuru)[23]
  • "Nandemonaiya" (なんでもないや, Nandemonaiya, lit. "It's Nothing")[22]

The soundtrack of the film was well received by both audiences and critics alike and is acknowledged as being one of the factors behind its success at the box office.[22] The film's soundtrack was the runner-up in the "Best Soundtrack" category at the 2016 Newtype Anime Awards, and the song "Zenzenzense" was the runner-up in the "Best Theme Song Category".[24]

Critical response

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reports that 98% of critics have given the film a positive review based on 116 reviews, with an average rating of 8.2/10. The site's critics consensus reads, "As beautifully animated as it is emotionally satisfying, Your Name adds another outstanding chapter to writer-director Makoto Shinkai's filmography."[79] On Metacritic, the film has a score of 79 out of 100 based on 26 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[80]

Mark Schilling of The Japan Times gave the film a rating of 4 out of 5 and praised the film's animation for its "blend of gorgeous, realistic detail and emotionally grounded fantasy".[11] However, he criticized the film's "over-deliver[y]" of "the comedy of adolescent embarrassment and awkwardness" and its ending for being "To the surprise of no one who has ever seen a Japanese seishun eiga (youth drama)".[11]

Reception outside of Japan was also very positive.[61][81] Mark Kermode called the film his ninth favourite film to be released in the United Kingdom in 2016.[82] US reviews were mostly positive. The New York Times described it as "a wistfully lovely Japanese tale",[83] while David Sims of The Atlantic said it was "a dazzling new work of anime".[84] Conversely, The Boston Globe had a mixed opinion of the film, saying that it was "pretty but too complicated".[85] Mike Toole from Anime News Network listed it as the third-best anime film of all time.[86] John Musker and Ron Clements, directors of the Disney animated films The Great Mouse Detective, The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Hercules, Treasure Planet, The Princess and the Frog, and Moana, praised the film for its beauty and uniqueness.[87]

Despite the praise he received, Shinkai insisted that the film is not as good as it could have been: "There are things we could not do, Masashi Ando [Director of Animation] wanted to keep working [on] but had to stop us for lack of money ... For me, it's incomplete, unbalanced. The plot is fine but the film is not at all perfect. Two years was not enough."[88]

Your Name is a Japanese light novel written by Makoto Shinkai. It is a novelization of the animated film of the same name, which was directed by Shinkai. It was published in Japan by Kadokawa on June 18, 2016, a month prior to the film premiere.[106] By September 2016, the light novel had sold around 1,029,000 copies.[107] An official visual guide was also released. The novel sold over 1.3 million copies, while the novel and visual guide sold over 2.5 million copies combined.[108]

Live-action film

On September 27, 2017, producer J. J. Abrams and screenwriter Eric Heisserer announced that they were working on a live-action remake of Your Name to be released by Paramount Pictures and Bad Robot Productions, alongside the original film's producers, Toho, who will handle the film's distribution in Japan.[109] The film was being written by Eric Heisserer, who revealed that the Japanese right holders want it to be made from the western point of view.[110] In February 2019, Marc Webb signed on to direct the remake. The film will be about a young Native American woman living in a rural area and a young man from Chicago who discover they are magically and intermittently swapping bodies.[111] In September 2020, Deadline Hollywood reported that Lee Isaac Chung had taken over as both writer and director, working off a draft penned by Emily V. Gordon, with Abrams and Genki Kawamura co-producing.[112] In July 2021, Chung departed the project, citing scheduling issues.[113] On October 31, 2022, Carlos López Estrada was announced to write and direct the remake, replacing Webb and Chung.[114]

In old Japan, people believed that supernatural occurrences were possible at twilight.

rural town of Itomori Japan Bored of the town she wishes to be a Tokyo boy in her next life One day she inexplicably begins to switch bodies intermittently with Taki Tachibana a high school boy in Tokyo Thus when they wake up as each other on some mornings they must live through the other s respective activities and social interactions for the day They learn they can communicate with each other by leaving messages on paper phones and sometimes on each other s skin Mitsuha in Taki s body sets Taki up on a date with coworker Miki Okudera while Taki in Mitsuha s body causes Mitsuha to become popular at school One day Taki in Mitsuha s body accompanies Mitsuha s grandmother Hitoha and younger sister Yotsuha to leave the ritual alcohol kuchikamizake made by the sisters as an offering at the Shinto shrine located on a mountaintop outside the town It is believed to represent the body of the village guardian god ruling over human connections and time Taki reads a note from Mitsuha about the comet Tiamat expected to pass nearest to Earth on the day of the autumn festival The next day Taki wakes up in his body and goes on a date with Miki who tells him she enjoyed the date but also that she can tell he is preoccupied with thoughts of someone else Taki attempts to call Mitsuha on the phone but cannot reach her as the body switching ends Taki Miki and their friend Tsukasa travel to Gifu by train on a trip to Hida in search of Mitsuha However Taki does not know the name of Itomori relying on his sketches of the surrounding landscape from memory A restaurant owner in Takayama is from Itomori and recognizes the town in the sketch He takes Taki and his friends to the ruins of Itomori which has been destroyed and where 500 residents were killed when Tiamat unexpectedly fragmented as it passed by Earth three years earlier Taki observes Mitsuha s messages disappear from his phone and his memories of her begin to gradually fade realizing the two were also separated by time as he is in 2016 Taki finds Mitsuha s name in the record of fatalities While Miki and Tsukasa return to Tokyo Taki journeys to the shrine hoping to reconnect with Mitsuha and warn her about Tiamat There Taki drinks Mitsuha s kuchikamizake and then lapses into a vision where he glimpses Mitsuha s past He also recalls that he encountered Mitsuha on a train when she came to Tokyo the day before the event to find him though Taki did not recognize her as the body switching was yet to occur in his timeframe Before leaving the train in embarrassment Mitsuha had handed him her hair ribbon which he has since worn on his wrist as a good luck charm Taki wakes up in Mitsuha s body at her house on the morning of the festival Hitoha deduces what has happened and tells him the body switching ability has been passed down in her family as caretakers of the shrine Taki convinces Tessie and Sayaka two of Mitsuha s friends to get the townspeople to evacuate Itomori by disabling the electrical substation and broadcasting a false emergency alert Taki heads to the shrine realizing that Mitsuha must be in his body there while Mitsuha wakes up in Taki s body At sunset the two sense each other s presence on the mountaintop but are separated due to contrasting timeframes and cannot see each other When twilight falls note 1 they return to their own bodies and see each other in person After Taki returns Mitsuha s ribbon they attempt to write their names on each other s palms so that they will remember each other However before Mitsuha can write hers twilight passes and they revert to their respective timeframes When the evacuation plan fails Mitsuha has to convince her father Toshiki the mayor of Itomori to evacuate everyone Before doing so Mitsuha notices her memories of Taki are fading away and discovers he wrote I love you on her hand instead of his own name After Tiamat crashes Taki returns to his own timeframe and remembers nothing Five years later Taki having graduated from university is searching for a job He senses he has lost something vital that he cannot identify and feels inexplicable interest in the events surrounding Tiamat now eight years in the past Itomori was destroyed but all of its people survived as they had evacuated just in time Mitsuha has since moved to Tokyo Sometime later Taki and Mitsuha glimpse each other when their respective trains pass each other and are instantly drawn to seek one another disembarking and racing to find the other finally meeting at the stairs of Suga Shrine ja Taki calls out to Mitsuha saying that he feels he
