59:46 “In order to return from the netherworld, you must leave something behind - The kuchikamizake. After all, it is part of you.” “Drinking something like tea or sake is a union - Musubi. It bonds your souls.” When Mitsuha gave Taki the cord, they no longer “both” had it, and the connection was lost. By drinking the kuchikamizake they reconnected, and by returning her cord he gave her her life back, but the connection was lost again. Katawaredoki (twilight, magic hour, etc) is when two times exist at once. The edge of the shrine is where life and death exist at once. That’s how they were able to connect right there and then. Part of Comet Tiamat has struck Itomori three times now, first being the shrine, second being the lake (might be mixed up). The forgotten history of Miyamizu Shrine is the history of Comet Tiamat. The dance represents the comet’s approach and separation, the kuchikamizake is a way to leave some of yourself behind, and the cords are a way to connect with someone to save everyone. It’s no coincidence that Mitsuha sheltered her kuchikamizake and left her cord with Taki the day before she died. The background world building and lore of this movie is exceptional, and makes a rewatch just as good as the first!
The red ribbon also represents the Red Cord of Fate in Asian mythos that binds fated lovers together. All of the imagery of the cord between them was meant to reinforce that they were fated to be togehter.
53:52 Yes! Whenever we see Taki in his own body, he wears the cord. For the first half of the movie, you can always tell when they’re in their own bodies based on whether or not they’re wearing the cord. When they switch, neither knows the other has it. This is disguised as Taki simply not knowing how to do Mitsuha’s hair, but less obvious is Mitsuha not wearing Taki’s bracelet.
funny that you mentioned that the "stuff falling from the sky" could be snow or cherry blossoms, because the director of this also made the movie "5cm Per Second". The title of which is referring to the speed that snow and cherry blossoms fall, and they name both specifically in that movie.
Mitsuha's teacher is one of the main protagonists of the movie "the garden of words" from the same director, Makoto Shinkai The movie "weathering with you" is also set in the same universe
15:55 Actually it’s 3D CGI. When spinning, you can see a polygon catch on Mitsuha’s back along the right shoulder seam. It’s used a ton and this movie has some of the best 3D integration out there.
where did you get this info from? i remember a blog about Your Name talking about this scene. It said that this scene was 2d animated and heavily rotoscoped/referenced. you can even search for the performance of the kabuki actor in which the animation was based on.
I don't know that you could see it but Taki write '' I love you'' in Mitsuha's hand instead of his name. That's the most emotional part. I'm sorry if you could see that. You're reaction is fantastic.
I am a man, so when I saw the embroidery on Okudera's skirt, I didn't think anything of it, but for the first time I heard a man say ADORABLE when he saw the embroidery on Okudera's skirt.
I recommend Godzilla Minus One. This movie is not a monster movie for children. It is a heartwarming human story for adults. The lead actor is the voice actor of Taki in Your Name
I highly recommend "5cm per Second" and "Garden of Words" both were made by the same creator and came out before Your Name. Really great films all of them I'm sure you'd like those as well.
I’m not familiar with you two before this, but you mentioned LGBT and ASD media a few times. If you like that, and liked this, and happy-crying in general, I strongly recommend *_Violet Evergarden._*
Hello! So happy to have found your reaction to this movie. And thank you for watching in the original Japanese with subs. Responding to the scene early in the movie with Mitsuha's dad... when that person said he was dealing out the "Pork" again... That's usually a term used for Politicians spending campaign funds or straight up bribing others for support or favors that would benefit that politician. Usually considered scandlous and not legal. Usually. :)
You should definitely react to "Ponyo on the Cliff" and "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" both are anime movies made by Hayo Miyazaki 😍👍 As something more cartoony, I would suggest "Shezow", a very avant-gardist cartoon about identity, gender, social norms and more (but was cancelled by anti-LGBTQIA+ lobbies sadly, so 1 season only)!
Again a movie version with no subtitles in Mitshuha´s hand that is almost the most important scene of the movie ruins a great reaction. PD: great reaction overall. I wish you could find the translation for Mitshuha scene
You need to watch 5cm per second now. Its the other side of the same coin and both movies need to be watched asap to appreciate them. Made by the same Author.
Remember Musubi takes away what is most precious to them. Each other's names were the most precious thing, and that's why Taki wrote "I love you." because in Japan messages of love are protected by the Moon God, Tsukuyomi. And therefore wouldn't be erased.
Great reaction but man I hate the translation in the subtitles from whatever source you're using. Not like I speak Japanese either but it's obvious this one is trying so hard to avoid using any Japanese phrases that it changes meanings completely. For example the official subs still keep the phrase "kataware-doki" for twilight, and they explain perfectly well enough in English that it means twilight, but when the subtitle here insists on ONLY using English phrases like "golden hour" and another kid saying "magic hour" they then have to use some nonsense about only photographers say "magic hour"... which, what? How is "magic hour" a photographer term? Whereas originally that exchange was about the teacher saying "kataware-doki" and the other kid asking if it's the same as a similar but different phrase, and the teacher noting that's a phrase from an older dialect which helps to expand on Itomori being an old-fashioned town. The translation here robs this whole scene of half its meaning in setting up what the town is like, and there's a bunch of other examples of that here.
Japanese girl. They are being assaulted by Chinese, Korean, and Kurdish people. I'm fighting against it too, but it's getting out of hand. Thank you for your help.

It's so deep
It's unwritten rule that if someone watch Your Name, they must watch A Silent Voice. So please, watch it hahaha.
So much crying
the holy duo
right !! theyre like a cry-movie duo lol
meh, should be weathering with you
Is that a happy ending? I only wanna watch thos with happy endings 😭
Cute how the dog trusts and relaxes with the two of them.
53:52 Yes! Whenever we see Taki in his own body, he wears the cord.

One of my favorite movies of all time. Btw, great reaction from the both of you. You followed the story well through the end.
I cried with you!!! Revisiting this movie because I love the soundtrack. Thank you for sharing your reacts.
Do I need a good cry this morning? Yes. Yes I do.
Thank you.
funny that you mentioned that the "stuff falling from the sky" could be snow or cherry blossoms, because the director of this also made the movie "5cm Per Second". The title of which is referring to the speed that snow and cherry blossoms fall, and they name both specifically in that movie.
He also had the notorious ending in that movie that the audience was afraid he would repeat this one.
Mitsuha's teacher is one of the main protagonists of the movie "the garden of words" from the same director, Makoto Shinkai
The movie "weathering with you" is also set in the same universe
OMG? This is so out of nowhere to me and I LOVE IT!
Writing "I love you" was stronger than writing his own name. A name is easily forgotten, but knowing someone loves you is eternal.
I gotta say yall have the most perfect dog I have ever seen
素敵なreactionをありがとう😊彼女の涙で私も一緒に涙しました😭❤
"He tripped and he's literally tripping now" 57:31
Made me giggle 😂
OST - Kuchikamizake Trip
Lol
1:28:20 It is! Yotsuha is now the same age Mitsuha was throughout the movie!
15:55 Actually it’s 3D CGI. When spinning, you can see a polygon catch on Mitsuha’s back along the right shoulder seam. It’s used a ton and this movie has some of the best 3D integration out there.
That's insane! I never would have been able to tell.
where did you get this info from? i remember a blog about Your Name talking about this scene. It said that this scene was 2d animated and heavily rotoscoped/referenced. you can even search for the performance of the kabuki actor in which the animation was based on.
Actually it's all hand drawn.
There's like a documentary of behind the scenes which shows how it was all made
The future appearances of the two appear in Makoto Shinkai's movie "Weathering With You," so please take a look!
We'll definitely have to give it a watch!
I don't know that you could see it but Taki write '' I love you'' in Mitsuha's hand instead of his name. That's the most emotional part. I'm sorry if you could see that. You're reaction is fantastic.
Still makes me cry 😭😭😭
The director said that the door POV shots and time-lapse shots were inspired by Breaking Bad of all things!
Did you know that this anime is based on a real place? I have been there and it is so beautiful.
❤❤❤
I didn't that's awesome that you go to go!
I've tried to watch every reaction to this, and this is one of my favorite. Great back and forth, comments, and vibes. Thank you
1:22:06
彼女ひらがな読めるの？
『すきだ』って呟いてるね
「ナニ！？」から始まって「カツ丼」や「後輩！」とも言ってたから、大分日本語が解ってる
I am a man, so when I saw the embroidery on Okudera's skirt, I didn't think anything of it, but for the first time I heard a man say ADORABLE when he saw the embroidery on Okudera's skirt.
got my food and bevs readyyy we are here to cry togetha trusttt
When you go back to change the past, the present will be changed too, and the future.
❤🎉
Love ur reaction.
If someone don’t cry with this movie, he has no heart. 😂 i watched them like hundred times, still tears up every time.
I recommend Godzilla Minus One.
This movie is not a monster movie for children.
It is a heartwarming human story for adults.
The lead actor is the voice actor of Taki in Your Name
I've heard such great things about it that we might definitely have to do a reaction to it.
I highly recommend "5cm per Second" and "Garden of Words" both were made by the same creator and came out before Your Name. Really great films all of them I'm sure you'd like those as well.
ahhhhhhh, sleeping pupper. 😍
The solid STRESS of the end of this movie is wild
ワンちゃん可愛い🐶♥️
Someone recommended me Orange: Mirai after Your Name. and it was a devastating watch
absolute 10/10 reaction. enjoyed empathy crying with yall
thanks for the reaction
Thanks for watching!
I actually went to an exhibit at the museum featured in the movie and it showed all of the director's works, which of course included stills from 君の名は
The music is also just perfect in this movie
I know im suuuper late but suzume is an amazing film made by the same people. Love yalls reaction btw. ❤❤
I’m not familiar with you two before this, but you mentioned LGBT and ASD media a few times. If you like that, and liked this, and happy-crying in general, I strongly recommend *_Violet Evergarden._*
なんか可愛い2人❤

I enjoy your reaction so much! I remember when i 1st saw this movie. Now please watch Weathering With You.
タキの声優さんは、ゴジラ−1の主人公もしています。良かったら、ゴジラも視聴してくださいね。感動しますよ😊
Weathering With You is a very good one to watch
日本の映画を見てくれてありがとう😊とてもいいリアクションでした！日本のアニメをたくさん見て、また泣いてください😂
its crazy the comet hit 3 times almost at the same place nearby

whenever i watch this movie,
i always cry the part mitsuha know if she died
Shout-out for the Angel Beats reference in your end comments.
日本のアニメ映画を見てくれてありがとうございます😊
最高のリアクションをありがとう👏
This director has the same basic story but damn it works
you mentioned you like romcom/shoujo anime? i highly recommend kaguya sama: love is war. it is the best romance anime of the last decade
You should definitely react to "Ponyo on the Cliff" and "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" both are anime movies made by Hayo Miyazaki 😍👍
As something more cartoony, I would suggest "Shezow", a very avant-gardist cartoon about identity, gender, social norms and more (but was cancelled by anti-LGBTQIA+ lobbies sadly, so 1 season only)!
Aww poochy! Who's a good doggie?
I enjoyed your reaction video of this movie. You guys are fun. Please Please make a reaction video of The Apothecary Diaries... That would be fun ❤❤❤
That's a very cute dog.
I would like you to watch the movie "Hachi" starring Richard Gere.
Do watch and react to "The Silent Voice" and " I want to eat your pancreas"
Another good one you guys should watch is I Want To Eat Your Pancreas! It's really wholesome
first. can’t believe this. ❤
You should watch tenki no ko (Weathering With You) next
Try to watch CYBORG SHE. Its an underrated Japanese movie. If this movie will have an anime remake. This one will beat YOUR NAME.
please watch Kiki's delivery service, or Wendell and Wilde for october, is perfect 🤧🙏
Pls react to weathering Withe you
now you have to see frieren
Again a movie version with no subtitles in Mitshuha´s hand that is almost the most important scene of the movie ruins a great reaction.
PD: great reaction overall. I wish you could find the translation for Mitshuha scene
You need to watch 5cm per second now. Its the other side of the same coin and both movies need to be watched asap to appreciate them. Made by the same Author.
7:45 The Mayor is controlling the comet to cause problems in the election.
Remember Musubi takes away what is most precious to them. Each other's names were the most precious thing, and that's why Taki wrote "I love you." because in Japan messages of love are protected by the Moon God, Tsukuyomi. And therefore wouldn't be erased.
Ahh that explains it! Thank you.
日本からこんにちは😊
あなたたちのリアクションはとても心が温まりました❤
素敵なリアクションをありがとう(*^-^*)
Hello, ilove your reaction. Please watch silent voice :)
Great reaction but man I hate the translation in the subtitles from whatever source you're using. Not like I speak Japanese either but it's obvious this one is trying so hard to avoid using any Japanese phrases that it changes meanings completely. For example the official subs still keep the phrase "kataware-doki" for twilight, and they explain perfectly well enough in English that it means twilight, but when the subtitle here insists on ONLY using English phrases like "golden hour" and another kid saying "magic hour" they then have to use some nonsense about only photographers say "magic hour"... which, what? How is "magic hour" a photographer term? Whereas originally that exchange was about the teacher saying "kataware-doki" and the other kid asking if it's the same as a similar but different phrase, and the teacher noting that's a phrase from an older dialect which helps to expand on Itomori being an old-fashioned town. The translation here robs this whole scene of half its meaning in setting up what the town is like, and there's a bunch of other examples of that here.
Please watch demon slayer
Japanese girl. They are being assaulted by Chinese, Korean, and Kurdish people. I'm fighting against it too, but it's getting out of hand. Thank you for your help.
