Hey i have one reaction suggestion. So last year, over 80 singers, artists, and cast members came together to sing a charity version of the My Hero Academia song "You Say Run" to raise money for UNICEF. I think not only would it be an incredible reaction video, but it would help draw awareness for the cause. Here's a link to the official video of the performance. ua-cam.com/video/m44w262ut-I/v-deo.html
Fun fact: the reason that the messages disappeared but the "I love You" did not is because in Japanese folklore, all messages of love are protected by the moon god.
the saddest part of this movie that everyone forgets; Mistuha's Grandmother went through the same experience but was never able to connect with her other part... It's been too long to remember and now she is forced to live knowing a part of her will always be missing.
@@SuperEcho True, they never mentioned whether they where in love, and her grandmother admits she has forgotten. Either way, they literally lived each others lives which undeniably would connect them. I think that's a special relationship no one would want to lose.
But that doesn't make sense cause Why would writing their name get removed but not "I love you"?. Since the movie is revolved around time "unraveling", I don't think time is sitting there checking if they wrote their name or not feel me? Unless I missed something.
@@cxluisz7464 becaus did you remember earlier in the movie, when Taki (while being Mitsuha) went to the Miyamizu shrine to place the kuchikamizake, Mitsuha’s grandma explained that “in order to leave the underworld you must leave behind what is most precious to you.” In that instance when Taki and Mitsuha finally met, what was most important to them was each other’s name, so that they could find each other once twilight hour was over. But as previously mentioned, in order to leave that place they had to “leave behind” what was most precious to them, their names. The power of the gods forcibly erased the remembrance of their names from Mitsuha and Taki. So even if they did write each other’s names on each other, it would’ve disappeared anyways.
It’s not but it is set in the same world. Taki and Mitsuha even have cameos in it 😊, if I’m correct, even the Teacher woman from The Garden of Words appears in Weathering with you 💁🏾♂️
My favorite scenes in this movie are as follows: 1. “I love you” -The way the music slowly and quietly kicks back in, the revelation of what Taki actually wrote to Mitsuha, the tears in her eyes but the smile on her face, the hope in the inevitable calamity. Everything about this scene is done perfectly and the emotions hit like a truck every time. 2. Twilight meeting -The first time Taki and Mitsuha meet face-to-face, both still retaining the memories of everything they have been through and the feelings they have for each other, then to slowly see that all fade away like sand between their fingers is heartbreaking. 3. End -Seeing that Mitsuha has survived and her and Taki are both always so close, still searching for something but not knowing what or who, drags you through an emotional rollercoaster until their eyes meet from across separate trains. When they see each other, and they recognize the other while also not remembering who they are at all, and then race frantically throughout the city to find their other half, my face always lights up and my eyes water. Then as they finally talk to each other again and ask “What is your name?” as the credits roll, it’s the final straw as the tears flow freely. 4. Taki’s sake vision -This one I feel goes under most people’s radar. When Taki drinks the sake that Mitsuha made and begins to experience her entire life, from her birth all the way to her tragic death, it’s a wild ride and you’re hoping with every fiber of your being that whatever he’s trying to do works. Seeing the fear and pain in Mitsuha’s eyes as Tiamat bears down on her as Taki cries out for her to run is gut-wrenching. But seeing Taki wake up as Mitsuha again and cry in relief as he hugs himself, or rather her, fills you with the hope that this could all still work out in the end. 5. Mitsuha goes to Tokyo -Following the reveal of Itomori’s destruction by Tiamat, Mitsuha’s death, and the pair existing and communicating through separate time periods, we learn that Mitsuha had travelled to Tokyo to meet Taki face to face. But now, with the knowledge of the time distortion linking the two, it makes her journey seem that much more hopeless and we understand why Taki doesn’t recognize her, this girl who’s life he’s been living throughout the last several months and has fallen in love with. Her heartbreak at him not knowing her resonates with us as the viewer, and we feel the same pain she does. But as she begins to leave, Taki calls out to her for her name and she gives him her ribbon, which he kept for 3 long years as a reminder of her. Their connection is set, their fates are intertwined, and the hope remains. This whole movie is phenomenal from start to finish, but pretty much everything in the second half is where it really shines. I both love and hate this movie (but not really hate). I love it for all the obvious reasons: it’s a fantastic story, beautifully animated, the music is great, the characters are wonderful, and the emotional payoffs are perfect. I hate it for 2 reasons: I can only experience for the first time once, and it makes me long for a life I know I cannot have. This film sits comfortably in my “Top 5 favorite movies of all time” and it’s not even close. “I love you” The mind may forget, but the heart will always remember.
I never expected this, even you guys are like low in subs compared to the reaction channels I always watch, but you two are actually my favorite reactors, just because of how you both react and I just also love the way you both laugh together, especially Anthony😂😂😂😂

I watched this film for the first time in December 2018, it became my all time favorite anime movie. I had no idea a story could be this engrossing but also so entertaining and suspenseful all while being an anime. Makoto shinkai is the best anime director and I cant wait for yall to watch the sequel "Weathering with you"
@@tornoutlaw I'd imagine it's the same all over. The cruelty of children against something they don't understand. In the US the school system makes it seem like bullying is non existent. But that is all public relations to make the school look good. Bullying is still out there and I highly doubt Europe of all places has eliminated it.
@@HyperionWasabi No, of course it's not eliminated here. I just find it a much more prevelant topic in asian fiction than in western fiction, also in the severityof it's depicted (meaning the bullying in asian fiction is much more violent and victims of bullying are much more suicidal). I don't suggest that this isn't happening in the reality of western life, just that the topic/theme of bullying seems to be much more focused in said cultures. The same goes for revenge, Korean fiction is so much more obsessed with revenge than any other culture I came in contact with.
@@tornoutlaw I would say that Japanese depicts the darkness of society at it's truest. Only censoring sex. Western society has a habit of sweeping anything seen as a weakness under the rug. In the digital social media age depression and suicide among teens is the highest it's ever been. Bullying is a huge part of that since now you can be attacked all the time in the web. I will say in any fictional story examples of bullying can be pushed to the extreme for effect. But I don't think it's worse in Japan. They're just not afraid to push the issue to the forefront and make people see the cruelty of it. Western culture try to bury it, hide it
What's great is that's actually possible, a lot of the locations like the train station in Gifu are real places and look almost exactly like they do in the movie.
5:54 In Japanese there are many self pronounce. In english we have I/Me like I am [name], on the other hand japanese have so many that correlate to formality and gender. 私 「Watashi 」is the most common, but generally used by female and it's polite. This is also the first self pronounce that is taughy to people who study Japanese. Watakushi is I believe an even older and more polite form of Watashi, and only used by female. 僕「 boku」is a polite form but generally used by male. Then, 俺「ore」 is quite informal and also only used by male.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". It may not be a "masterpiece" for some but for others, including myself, it was a masterpiece. So let's not belittle others opinions.
This is a beautiful movie in both subbed and dubbed. I'm pleasantly surprised to see this movie getting more recognition from my favorite channels. Now dos cavazos go and bless my sub feed again with another banger! I gotta re-watch again sometime myself. 👏👏
Same, I'm trying to convince my mother and brother to watch it, my brother watches a lot of anime but my mother isn't really that into it, but I think this movie could change her opinion.
@@harneetk6831 You may also want to check out "The Garden of Words" which came in 2013 before Your Name as the Director Makoto Shinkai releases movies every 3 years so his next movie will be coming in 2022!
I'm glad you went into this completely blind. I bought this movie on a whim after watching the director's follow-up "Weathering With You". I didn't know anything about it and it was one of the best film experiences I've ever had. This is one of my favorites and I recommend it to everyone, and I always tell them not to read anything about it before watching it.
I'm really happy you guys decided to start a channel obviously you love anime and reactions unlike so many others you guys actually care your reaction is genuine, so many reaction channels lost their way because they want that view to the point you can tell they have a schtick going, some overreact or just act some is the thirst smh... i appreciate you both you actually make me happy thank you for the time you burn to make us happy
One of my fav anime movies of all time. This and "I want to eat your Pancreas" 👀😂. Yes, there's an anime movie called "I want to Eat Your Pancreas" and its also fucking amazing!
I'm only 7 minutes in but you guys pick up on so much, you were pretty much spot on about your guesses. Kimi No Na Wa is one of my favourite movies, it's just so heartwarming and beautifully crafted. The animation is gorgeous, the soundtrack is amazing, and the story really tugs on your heartstrings.
I am rarely a fan of anime but this film truly touched me. Especially cos I watched it when I was living in Tokyo at that time, and had been to many of the places featured in the movie, so it all felt so familiar and close by. Now every time I hear the soundtrack it brings me back to Tokyo… I’m glad to see you had also reacted to the writer/director’s next film “Weathering With You” (Tenki no Ko) yet, but for those who hadn’t watched it, it’s another fantastic movie, with cameos from Taki and Mitsuha too!
Great review! This movie is definitely one that benefits from multiply viewings as you start to catch more hints from the beginning. BTW this was also picked up by Hollywood to get a live-action adaptation in an American setting with a native American female lead and a Chicago male lead. Keep up the great reviews!
That has me worried some times with reactions. The reactor is calling things out and not just being in the moment. It's not a puzzle or mystery that needs to be figured out.
You should react to "A silent voice" its really good. In my opinion its better than Your name because of the subject matter and its more down to earth.
Nah. I watched A Silent Voice first and LOVED it but better? Many of the characters arcs were never explored (I haven't read the manga but people say it missed that).
One of my favourite anime movies of all time. Subscribed because of your anime reactions. I'm writing a novel with this movie as an inspiration. Yet to be titled and I haven't decided on a pen name yet.
I loved how you were guessing the whole thing really early in the movie, can you imagine to live 8 years feeling a loss but not remembering of whom but still feel a deep hole and some days even wake up crying "for no reason at all"...
Fun fact: The reason why the connection ended is because when they entered the shrine, it wasn't Mitusha, it was Taki. Since Taki left Mitsuha's kuchikamizake instead of soomething of his, he was stripped of something important to him; his connection with Mitsuha
@@victorlizcano94 No, it’s frustrating. If you like stories about guys who can’t get over their highschool crush and pine for them for years, you may like it.
This was a limited run in theaters in the US and i heard it was good. I ended up watching it completely alone in a theater and good thing too, because i SOBBED
Just a couple of cultural notes. The red ribbon is in reference to the red thread of fate which in many asian mythologies links soul mates. Also the when Taki told Mitsuha he drank that sake, she blushed because when you drink or eat something where another person last drank from it, it's called an indirect kiss. It's used a lot in anime. I'm not really sure if this is observed in real life though. This really was a unique way to have characters develop their connection, over different time frame. I'm glad to see you guys react to this
Glad you liked it. I feel it's one of the best anime movies to come out in the recent time. I was getting a bit worried that you'd call the twist out and I think that it would have made the impact a bit diminished. I get a bit teary eyed at this movie, just because it's so beautiful and really pulls on that emotion of longing or searching. For more movies, Myazaki films of course. His movies are typical gateways for people who don't have much experience with anime.
I've never met or seen anyone who managed to actually call the twist. Seen somebody throw out the 'she's dead' theory before, but he'd also thrown out every other hair-brained theory on the planet as well, so it was more of a 'throw shit at the wall until something sticks' type approach. And thus the twist still surprised him. But the movie is so masterful at making everything seem like nothing more than an innocent and light-hearted body-swap romance movie that nobody sees the sudden swerve coming. Even though the opening of the film literally spoils the outcome, nobody remembers it until after the fact. Just masterful storytelling is what it is. I'll never forget the feelings I got when I first watched it in the theater. Absolutely incredible.
Want me to explain? aight c̶r̶a̶c̶k̶s̶ ̶k̶n̶u̶c̶k̶l̶e̶s̶ Spoilers Incoming: "Why did Taki not remember Mitsuha?" They lived on seperate timelines, thats why even tho mitsuha went to tokyo to see taki, he didnt who she was, the one that knows who mitsuha is the present taki. "How did Taki save mitsuha?" Well, as you guys saw, mitsuha and her family worship gods. as a member of the Miyamizu family, Mitsuha has spiritual powers and can passively exchange her soul with another person. Mitsuha's exchanges with Taki are triggered by sleep and possibly her spiritual powers, as she had unconsciously wanted to “reincarnate into a handsome boy living in Tokyo”. This phenomenon only occurs during her youth. Exact conditions and causes are unknown, however, it most likely activates when Impending doom approaches, this activates as a way to save the host(mitsuha) and other people. "How did they remember each other?" Love. I know it might be cheesy but hear me out, remember the part where Taki writes "I love you" instead of his name? that part. If he wrote his name, it wouldve been erased by the gods since its not allowed for people that arent supposed to meet in the first place to know each other's name, But since he wrote "I love you", It was allowed by Kagutsuchi(God of fate) for it was an emotion that would bring the two lovers together. And that emotion led to Mitsuha looking for Taki, cuz she felt like something is missing. "How did they see each other on the mountain?" They saw each other during Twilight, the time when different worlds/timelines/dimensions meet. Reply to me if you have other questions.
This movie... I don't even know what it does to me. It touches my heart in a way anything or no one makes me. The kind of movie you wish you could see it for the first time again. The soundtrack alone makes me remember this feeling of nostalgia. This movie means so much to me... I can't put it in words.
Here's a few things you probably missed: -first. You remember the beginning (and the end too) where they talk about having a dream as if something's missing as they get ready for work? Notice how after they wipe their tears they stop to look at their hands... It's the same hand they tried to write each other's name on. -In China and Japan there is an idea of an invisible red string connecting two destined lovers. Hence symbology of the string. There are other colors on the ribbon that represent other things too. The center white diagonal stripe symbolizing the comet, the blue around it for the lake(s), etc. -There's also this big thing about how the god their family worship is actually a fraction of the comet that's given their family powers to save the village. That's how they have the dance and the tradition to honor their god. The comet actually came at least twice before. To make the lake and the god's underworld shrine. Both times also created craters. So the god gave the family there power to save it's people. -And the BIG Whopper. Mitsuha wasn't going to write her name on Taki's hand. There are a few ways to write her name, the first, Kanji, can be read in multiple ways and is kinda complicated to write in the small time they had, so she wouldn't write it that way for a first meeting. The second way, Hiragana starts similarly with a straight left to right stroke, but we see her in the beginning writing in hiragana her name with a curved stroke, not a straight stroke. 07:41 in your clip. Instead the theory is she was planning on writing 'Suki da'. Which is written like this: すきだ ("sukida") And while you probably don't recognize it, it was actually in the movie. Specifically 22:53 in your clip. Yep, they were going to write the same thing. And yes, makoto Shinkai, the director admitted Mitsuha would have revealed her feelings than write her name down when asked in a Q&A
I love that Anthony had some feminine fangirl reaction which many male reactors lack because they all trying act all tough and smart. Many female reactors also kinda rolled eye during the boon touching parte because (feminine SJW) but both of you gave good genuine reaction to it. Love your reactions!!
Me: I can't want for them to get shock at the plot twist * After a minute * Them: I think their switching body in a different time. Me: 😑 I guess I'm just dumb watching this movie for the first time. Or they are just smart ♥️. Love your Vids tho ♥️♥️
I found you guys by accident but I love your genuine reactions, this movie was fantastic I watched it alone and still cried like a child What a spectacular film
I just watched this movie and wow. Just wow. This is truly a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences. It give you nostalgia even thought it’s something you’ve never experienced. I usually don’t cry watching movies and I wasn’t sure how I was gonna feel watching this but the last scene got me. Insane movie and if you haven’t seen it watch it. The animation quality is insane as well.
I challenge anyone to say this movie isn't a masterpiece. It's one of the few examples of a "anime movie" expanding past it's label and just being an incredible movie for all audiences
You're missing a lot if you think anime is just a "label". Anime is no different from any other storytelling media. A lot of good writers express their stories through different mediums and Anime is one of them (along with live action movies/series, novels, manga, comics, etc.)
@@izs6946 I said (or at least meant) the exact opposite, I'm saying this movie is a perfect example to people who don't watch anime and just assume it's all naruto and pokemon
Y'all's reaction to this one made me very happy. Loved the theories at the start, and really enjoyed the squeals lol. I've seen someone else recommend "A Silent Voice", but another really great one, though is more of a tear jerker. "I want to eat your pancreas" The title doesn't really describe the anime until you've seen it. It's a really beautiful movie, just box of tissues is all I can spoil for you.
When you say "they just did a really really great job with this" you really mean "Makoto Shinkai". This guy is not only the writer and director, but is also the art director, the cinematographer, everything. Specially in his early movies, he even drew the backgrounds. You should really check 5 Centimeters Per Second sometime, by him!
One of the best story ever told, so much nuances to every little detail and every story beats. Worth several repeat viewings. One of my favorite films.
It always makes me cry damn it. You should definitely watch "A Silent Voice" and "Kokoro ga sakebitagatterunda" (i think this one translates to The Anthem of the Heart), the first one specially makes me cry every single time, it's so, so touching. Also the latter one... it's also very dear to me. There's also every movie by Ghibli, and Summer Wars, somehow this movie it's not sad but it still manages to make me cry. It's the hope i guess.
This film explains that sometimes we experience mystical things without us knowing it, sometimes we also feel like we are looking for someone we don't even remember and the essence of this story the memory can be lost but the feeling always remembers it.
This is a package for anime's like "Your Name" 1. Silent Voice 2. Maquia: when the promised flower bloomed 3. Weathering with you (everything this film has in common is *BEAUTIFUL*) edit: 4. I want to eat your Pancreas
Some of other works by Makoto Shinkai I recommend are: 5 Centimeters per Second The Garden of Words (Edit): I see that you guys already did a reaction for below movie. Weathering with You These give different vibes and some of the stories might lack some dramatic features but they end you with calmness
Voices of a Distant Star is great as well. And Children who Chase Lost Voices from Deep Below. Honestly just watching his filmography in order is good. I had seen several Shinkai films including 5cm/sec before I saw Kimi no na ha, and I think it really improves the experience with how Mitsuha and Taki walking past eachother on the bridge is basically straight out of 5cm/sec, which leads one to genuinely believe that they will not find eachother based on Shinkai's reputation.
Guys nice reaction as always! Hear me out for 1 sec; you two NEED to react to Haikyuu! This is the BEST react channel for Haikyuu! and yet, you guys still didn't start. I SWEAR TO GOD you gonna like it!!! People, help me out here! We need this in our lives!

You guys have to watch “weathering with you” which may or may not be a sequel to Your name.
It's separate, but in the same world
Not a sequel, but same universe.
@@Niop_Tres its in the same cinematic universe, the Shinkai cinematic universe
It’s not but it is set in the same world. Taki and Mitsuha even have cameos in it 😊, if I’m correct, even the Teacher woman from The Garden of Words appears in Weathering with you 💁🏾♂️
I believe that the teacher talking about twilight is the same as the one from garden of words
My favorite scenes in this movie are as follows:
1. “I love you”
-The way the music slowly and quietly kicks back in, the revelation of what Taki actually wrote to Mitsuha, the tears in her eyes but the smile on her face, the hope in the inevitable calamity. Everything about this scene is done perfectly and the emotions hit like a truck every time.
2. Twilight meeting
-The first time Taki and Mitsuha meet face-to-face, both still retaining the memories of everything they have been through and the feelings they have for each other, then to slowly see that all fade away like sand between their fingers is heartbreaking.
3. End
-Seeing that Mitsuha has survived and her and Taki are both always so close, still searching for something but not knowing what or who, drags you through an emotional rollercoaster until their eyes meet from across separate trains. When they see each other, and they recognize the other while also not remembering who they are at all, and then race frantically throughout the city to find their other half, my face always lights up and my eyes water. Then as they finally talk to each other again and ask “What is your name?” as the credits roll, it’s the final straw as the tears flow freely.
4. Taki’s sake vision
-This one I feel goes under most people’s radar. When Taki drinks the sake that Mitsuha made and begins to experience her entire life, from her birth all the way to her tragic death, it’s a wild ride and you’re hoping with every fiber of your being that whatever he’s trying to do works. Seeing the fear and pain in Mitsuha’s eyes as Tiamat bears down on her as Taki cries out for her to run is gut-wrenching. But seeing Taki wake up as Mitsuha again and cry in relief as he hugs himself, or rather her, fills you with the hope that this could all still work out in the end.
5. Mitsuha goes to Tokyo
-Following the reveal of Itomori’s destruction by Tiamat, Mitsuha’s death, and the pair existing and communicating through separate time periods, we learn that Mitsuha had travelled to Tokyo to meet Taki face to face. But now, with the knowledge of the time distortion linking the two, it makes her journey seem that much more hopeless and we understand why Taki doesn’t recognize her, this girl who’s life he’s been living throughout the last several months and has fallen in love with. Her heartbreak at him not knowing her resonates with us as the viewer, and we feel the same pain she does. But as she begins to leave, Taki calls out to her for her name and she gives him her ribbon, which he kept for 3 long years as a reminder of her. Their connection is set, their fates are intertwined, and the hope remains.

I don't think so, it only happened when she died.
I’m 23 and this is the only movie that has ever made me ugly-cry
I was 40 when I saw it and it broke me.
well ... Kimi no Suizou o Tabetai ( I want to eat your pancreas )... Try this one out. It's really sad but I love this movie!
@@slowmill saw a trailer for it a while ago and really loved the music in the trailer; will definitely check it out!
Try A silent voice too
Ugly cry part 2
Watch "A silent voice:" and "Violet Evergarden eternity and auto memory doll "
I watched this film for the first time in December 2018, it became my all time favorite anime movie. I had no idea a story could be this engrossing but also so entertaining and suspenseful all while being an anime. Makoto shinkai is the best anime director and I cant wait for yall to watch the sequel "Weathering with you"
This movie is beautiful. The director has another movie "Tenki no ko" happens in the same world as this one. I hope you can see it soon.
I really hope you watch "A Silent Voice" next. It's so good.
But also quite upsetting. Korean and japanese cinema/shows/manga are obsessed with bullying, I wonder if it's so much worse than here in europe.
@@tornoutlaw I'd imagine it's the same all over. The cruelty of children against something they don't understand. In the US the school system makes it seem like bullying is non existent. But that is all public relations to make the school look good. Bullying is still out there and I highly doubt Europe of all places has eliminated it.
@@HyperionWasabi No, of course it's not eliminated here. I just find it a much more prevelant topic in asian fiction than in western fiction, also in the severityof it's depicted (meaning the bullying in asian fiction is much more violent and victims of bullying are much more suicidal). I don't suggest that this isn't happening in the reality of western life, just that the topic/theme of bullying seems to be much more focused in said cultures. The same goes for revenge, Korean fiction is so much more obsessed with revenge than any other culture I came in contact with.
@@tornoutlaw I would say that Japanese depicts the darkness of society at it's truest. Only censoring sex. Western society has a habit of sweeping anything seen as a weakness under the rug. In the digital social media age depression and suicide among teens is the highest it's ever been. Bullying is a huge part of that since now you can be attacked all the time in the web. I will say in any fictional story examples of bullying can be pushed to the extreme for effect. But I don't think it's worse in Japan. They're just not afraid to push the issue to the forefront and make people see the cruelty of it. Western culture try to bury it, hide it
Yesssss
This movie makes me want to go to Japan, vibing to the cities. I hope i can go to Japan someday.
I am a Japanese(〃ω〃)we always welcome you!! come visit♪ we love meeting visitors♡

You will
What's great is that's actually possible, a lot of the locations like the train station in Gifu are real places and look almost exactly like they do in the movie.
whenever she sees her hand say "i love you" it makes me cry eveytime lol
Same, even rewatching it knowing it's coming it still hits like a truck.
5:54 In Japanese there are many self pronounce. In english we have I/Me like I am [name], on the other hand japanese have so many that correlate to formality and gender.
私 「Watashi 」is the most common, but generally used by female and it's polite. This is also the first self pronounce that is taughy to people who study Japanese. Watakushi is I believe an even older and more polite form of Watashi, and only used by female. 僕「 boku」is a polite form but generally used by male. Then, 俺「ore」 is quite informal and also only used by male.
Watakushi is indeed more polite than watashi. Watakushi can also be used by males too. Atashi is another form, informal and only used by females.
"Weathering With You" is another film by the same director of Your Name. You guys need to watch it!!!
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". It may not be a "masterpiece" for some but for others, including myself, it was a masterpiece. So let's not belittle others opinions.
This is a beautiful movie in both subbed and dubbed. I'm pleasantly surprised to see this movie getting more recognition from my favorite channels. Now dos cavazos go and bless my sub feed again with another banger! I gotta re-watch again sometime myself. 👏👏
I always love your decency to lower the volume when you mark out a scene.
You are my fave reactors!
This movie left such a mark on me the first time I watched it, and I get so excited to see other people watching it for the first time!
Same, I'm trying to convince my mother and brother to watch it, my brother watches a lot of anime but my mother isn't really that into it, but I think this movie could change her opinion.
Great reactions guys.
A lot of people here are claiming it's one of the best anime films ever made. Meanwhile, I just consider it to be my all time favourite movie.
makes me cry again just watching your reaction
It's one of the greatest romantic movie in history.
You guys should definitely check out the same director's newest movie "Weathering with You". It's super good!
Yes
Yea after your name (Kimi no nawa) I watched weathering with you and honestly this movie is also a masterpiece and beautiful ❤️ just like Kimi no nawa
@@harneetk6831 You may also want to check out "The Garden of Words" which came in 2013 before Your Name as the Director Makoto Shinkai releases movies every 3 years so his next movie will be coming in 2022!
when she opens up her hand to see Taki's name, and it says "I love you" GOSH the waterworks start. Such a great movie.
I'm glad you went into this completely blind. I bought this movie on a whim after watching the director's follow-up "Weathering With You". I didn't know anything about it and it was one of the best film experiences I've ever had. This is one of my favorites and I recommend it to everyone, and I always tell them not to read anything about it before watching it.
I'm really happy you guys decided to start a channel obviously you love anime and reactions unlike so many others you guys actually care your reaction is genuine, so many reaction channels lost their way because they want that view to the point you can tell they have a schtick going, some overreact or just act some is the thirst smh... i appreciate you both you actually make me happy thank you for the time you burn to make us happy
Honestly one of my favorite movies! I'm glad you guys enjoyed it!
THE ‘I love you’ ALWAYS BREAKS ME. MY TEARS AND EMOTIONS JUST FALL
i wanna erase my memory and watch your name again..
Every single person I tried to watch it with couldn’t even fully pay attention to the movie and appreciate it, so thank you for reacting to it
One of my fav anime movies of all time. This and "I want to eat your Pancreas" 👀😂. Yes, there's an anime movie called "I want to Eat Your Pancreas" and its also fucking amazing!
That movie left me feeling empty for a good week 😔
can i cry now
@@estebeaner4048 fr 😭
@@isaiasmmmmm2784 Ong me too
@@isaiasmmmmm2784 i’m thinking of watching it but it’s a sad ending? please don’t spoil with any actual details tho
I'm only 7 minutes in but you guys pick up on so much, you were pretty much spot on about your guesses.
Kimi No Na Wa is one of my favourite movies, it's just so heartwarming and beautifully crafted. The animation is gorgeous, the soundtrack is amazing, and the story really tugs on your heartstrings.
I am rarely a fan of anime but this film truly touched me. Especially cos I watched it when I was living in Tokyo at that time, and had been to many of the places featured in the movie, so it all felt so familiar and close by. Now every time I hear the soundtrack it brings me back to Tokyo…
I’m glad to see you had also reacted to the writer/director’s next film “Weathering With You” (Tenki no Ko) yet, but for those who hadn’t watched it, it’s another fantastic movie, with cameos from Taki and Mitsuha too!

Oh god my mind i never clicked so fast on a notification!
Great review! This movie is definitely one that benefits from multiply viewings as you start to catch more hints from the beginning. BTW this was also picked up by Hollywood to get a live-action adaptation in an American setting with a native American female lead and a Chicago male lead. Keep up the great reviews!
Gotta watch “Wolf Children”
100% yes and Maqiua (100% on rotten tomatoes)
YES YES YES best anime movie I've ever seen! It's so touching
That made me cry like a baby😭
I watched this alone, I cried like a baby, it's the feeling of something is missing that I can relate to.
6:07 he literally predicted the story line lmao
That has me worried some times with reactions. The reactor is calling things out and not just being in the moment. It's not a puzzle or mystery that needs to be figured out.
No matter how many times I watch this movie it makes me cry
You should react to "A silent voice" its really good. In my opinion its better than Your name because of the subject matter and its more down to earth.
The manga is better, but the movie is lackluster.
@@lalalarose8197 the films amazing lol wym
@@lalalarose8197 Bad opinion this is why reading manga is pointless
Nah. I watched A Silent Voice first and LOVED it but better? Many of the characters arcs were never explored (I haven't read the manga but people say it missed that).
@@OsSas3 thats your opinion but if theres more people saying is better than not then is for a reason...
"What if it is a different time" The viewers will remember that.
One of my favourite anime movies of all time. Subscribed because of your anime reactions. I'm writing a novel with this movie as an inspiration. Yet to be titled and I haven't decided on a pen name yet.
You two always hit the plot point on this movie. You guys are amazing
Seeing this and Weathering with you in theatres was definitely an experience.
I loved how you were guessing the whole thing really early in the movie, can you imagine to live 8 years feeling a loss but not remembering of whom but still feel a deep hole and some days even wake up crying "for no reason at all"...
Fun fact:
The reason why the connection ended is because when they entered the shrine, it wasn't Mitusha, it was Taki.
Since Taki left Mitsuha's kuchikamizake instead of soomething of his, he was stripped of something important to him; his connection with Mitsuha
I've watched most reactors on UA-cam and you guys are definitely in my top 2 :D
Those who cry while watching your name.😢😢
英語はところどころの単語しかわからないけど、彼女の表現力と表情が豊かでたいへん楽しめました。綺麗な方なので、見てて楽しくなる興奮度！
"Dont tell me they never end up together!?!"
That one Shinkai movie: let me introduce myself :D
I will never watch 5 centimetres per second again I literally suffer from depression like thing for few days😣😣
@@himanshujindal1004 is it good tho?
@@victorlizcano94 yeah it's very good but sad
@@victorlizcano94 No, it’s frustrating. If you like stories about guys who can’t get over their highschool crush and pine for them for years, you may like it.
@@lalalarose8197 It was way more than a highschool crush.
this movie gives me a feeling , a feeling that im searching for someone, someone i dont want to lose, someone i want to be with.
This was a limited run in theaters in the US and i heard it was good. I ended up watching it completely alone in a theater and good thing too, because i SOBBED
Just a couple of cultural notes. The red ribbon is in reference to the red thread of fate which in many asian mythologies links soul mates.
Also the when Taki told Mitsuha he drank that sake, she blushed because when you drink or eat something where another person last drank from it, it's called an indirect kiss. It's used a lot in anime. I'm not really sure if this is observed in real life though.
This really was a unique way to have characters develop their connection, over different time frame. I'm glad to see you guys react to this
You guys need to check "Weathering with you" to know what happen with taki and mitsuha 😊
Glad you liked it. I feel it's one of the best anime movies to come out in the recent time. I was getting a bit worried that you'd call the twist out and I think that it would have made the impact a bit diminished. I get a bit teary eyed at this movie, just because it's so beautiful and really pulls on that emotion of longing or searching. For more movies, Myazaki films of course. His movies are typical gateways for people who don't have much experience with anime.
I've never met or seen anyone who managed to actually call the twist. Seen somebody throw out the 'she's dead' theory before, but he'd also thrown out every other hair-brained theory on the planet as well, so it was more of a 'throw shit at the wall until something sticks' type approach. And thus the twist still surprised him. But the movie is so masterful at making everything seem like nothing more than an innocent and light-hearted body-swap romance movie that nobody sees the sudden swerve coming. Even though the opening of the film literally spoils the outcome, nobody remembers it until after the fact. Just masterful storytelling is what it is. I'll never forget the feelings I got when I first watched it in the theater. Absolutely incredible.
Want me to explain? aight c̶r̶a̶c̶k̶s̶ ̶k̶n̶u̶c̶k̶l̶e̶s̶
Spoilers Incoming:
"Why did Taki not remember Mitsuha?" They lived on seperate timelines, thats why even tho mitsuha went to tokyo to see taki, he didnt who she was, the one that knows who mitsuha is the present taki.
"How did Taki save mitsuha?" Well, as you guys saw, mitsuha and her family worship gods. as a member of the Miyamizu family, Mitsuha has spiritual powers and can passively exchange her soul with another person. Mitsuha's exchanges with Taki are triggered by sleep and possibly her spiritual powers, as she had unconsciously wanted to “reincarnate into a handsome boy living in Tokyo”. This phenomenon only occurs during her youth. Exact conditions and causes are unknown, however, it most likely activates when Impending doom approaches, this activates as a way to save the host(mitsuha) and other people.
"How did they remember each other?" Love. I know it might be cheesy but hear me out, remember the part where Taki writes "I love you" instead of his name? that part. If he wrote his name, it wouldve been erased by the gods since its not allowed for people that arent supposed to meet in the first place to know each other's name, But since he wrote "I love you", It was allowed by Kagutsuchi(God of fate) for it was an emotion that would bring the two lovers together. And that emotion led to Mitsuha looking for Taki, cuz she felt like something is missing.
"How did they see each other on the mountain?" They saw each other during Twilight, the time when different worlds/timelines/dimensions meet.
Reply to me if you have other questions.
your name is a great anime movie even for non anime fans, I could definitly recommended it to anyone. Its the best work of art
I absolutely loved watching your reactions to this amazing movie! That is all! ❤
OMG Yes!!! I can't believe you're reacting to this masterpiece!!
The music "Sparkle" Used in this by Radwimps is LEGENDARY
This movie... I don't even know what it does to me. It touches my heart in a way anything or no one makes me. The kind of movie you wish you could see it for the first time again. The soundtrack alone makes me remember this feeling of nostalgia. This movie means so much to me... I can't put it in words.
I can watch this movie a hundred times amd still not get bored.
Here's a few things you probably missed:
-first. You remember the beginning (and the end too) where they talk about having a dream as if something's missing as they get ready for work? Notice how after they wipe their tears they stop to look at their hands... It's the same hand they tried to write each other's name on.
-In China and Japan there is an idea of an invisible red string connecting two destined lovers. Hence symbology of the string. There are other colors on the ribbon that represent other things too. The center white diagonal stripe symbolizing the comet, the blue around it for the lake(s), etc.
-There's also this big thing about how the god their family worship is actually a fraction of the comet that's given their family powers to save the village. That's how they have the dance and the tradition to honor their god. The comet actually came at least twice before. To make the lake and the god's underworld shrine. Both times also created craters. So the god gave the family there power to save it's people.
-And the BIG Whopper. Mitsuha wasn't going to write her name on Taki's hand. There are a few ways to write her name, the first, Kanji, can be read in multiple ways and is kinda complicated to write in the small time they had, so she wouldn't write it that way for a first meeting. The second way, Hiragana starts similarly with a straight left to right stroke, but we see her in the beginning writing in hiragana her name with a curved stroke, not a straight stroke. 07:41 in your clip. Instead the theory is she was planning on writing 'Suki da'. Which is written like this: すきだ ("sukida") And while you probably don't recognize it, it was actually in the movie. Specifically 22:53 in your clip. Yep, they were going to write the same thing. And yes, makoto Shinkai, the director admitted Mitsuha would have revealed her feelings than write her name down when asked in a Q&A
I watched this a lot of time and everytime I was cried like a baby.
I love that Anthony had some feminine fangirl reaction which many male reactors lack because they all trying act all tough and smart.
Many female reactors also kinda rolled eye during the boon touching parte because (feminine SJW) but both of you gave good genuine reaction to it. Love your reactions!!
Me: I can't want for them to get shock at the plot twist
* After a minute *
Them: I think their switching body in a different time.
Me: 😑 I guess I'm just dumb watching this movie for the first time. Or they are just smart ♥️.
Love your Vids tho ♥️♥️
I found you guys by accident but I love your genuine reactions, this movie was fantastic I watched it alone and still cried like a child
What a spectacular film
Another movie by him is ‘Weathering With You.”
I recommend that one as well. A Silent Voice is great as well!
I just watched this movie and wow. Just wow. This is truly a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences. It give you nostalgia even thought it’s something you’ve never experienced. I usually don’t cry watching movies and I wasn’t sure how I was gonna feel watching this but the last scene got me. Insane movie and if you haven’t seen it watch it. The animation quality is insane as well.
I challenge anyone to say this movie isn't a masterpiece. It's one of the few examples of a "anime movie" expanding past it's label and just being an incredible movie for all audiences
@@sungdripwoo1251 someone had to say that and I salute you
@@sungdripwoo1251 I respect that
You're missing a lot if you think anime is just a "label".
Anime is no different from any other storytelling media.
A lot of good writers express their stories through different mediums and Anime is one of them (along with live action movies/series, novels, manga, comics, etc.)
@@izs6946 I said (or at least meant) the exact opposite, I'm saying this movie is a perfect example to people who don't watch anime and just assume it's all naruto and pokemon
I have been watching for months now. This is one of my favorite reaction channels.
Super cool reaction! Thanks so much for sharing it, guys!
I remember watching this movie got me crying like a little bitch.
Ur not the only one
This is the first anime that made me really cried of happiness😭What a masterpiece!!!
Me: *sees thumbnail*
Also me: SHIT THE TEARS COME AGAIN
Y'all's reaction to this one made me very happy. Loved the theories at the start, and really enjoyed the squeals lol. I've seen someone else recommend "A Silent Voice", but another really great one, though is more of a tear jerker. "I want to eat your pancreas" The title doesn't really describe the anime until you've seen it. It's a really beautiful movie, just box of tissues is all I can spoil for you.
If you feel there’s something missing in your life, but you don’t know what it is, this movie is for you.
When you say "they just did a really really great job with this" you really mean "Makoto Shinkai". This guy is not only the writer and director, but is also the art director, the cinematographer, everything. Specially in his early movies, he even drew the backgrounds. You should really check 5 Centimeters Per Second sometime, by him!
Please watch silent voice it’s great
One of the best story ever told, so much nuances to every little detail and every story beats. Worth several repeat viewings. One of my favorite films.
とうきょうにきてね。がいどするよ。
Bruhh the fact that you guys picked up more info about the movie jus a few minutes into it is jus amazing😮I had to watch it 3 times to fully get it😅
"A silent voice" should be next :)
The last part gave me the biggest goosebumps in my life
yall there is another movie made by the same studio called "weathering with you"
It always makes me cry damn it.
You should definitely watch "A Silent Voice" and "Kokoro ga sakebitagatterunda" (i think this one translates to The Anthem of the Heart), the first one specially makes me cry every single time, it's so, so touching. Also the latter one... it's also very dear to me.
There's also every movie by Ghibli, and Summer Wars, somehow this movie it's not sad but it still manages to make me cry. It's the hope i guess.
Watch "Weathering with You" same director and same world
It's amazing that you can give an impression immediately after seeing it.
After seeing this, I couldn't think of anything.
"Weathering with you" is the next makoto shinkai X radwimps movie you SHOULD react to.
YES ITS MANDATORY XD
This film explains that sometimes we experience mystical things without us knowing it, sometimes we also feel like we are looking for someone we don't even remember and the essence of this story the memory can be lost but the feeling always remembers it.
This is a package for anime's like "Your Name"
1. Silent Voice
2. Maquia: when the promised flower bloomed
3. Weathering with you
(everything this film has in common is *BEAUTIFUL*)
edit:
4. I want to eat your Pancreas
"I want to eat your pancreas"?
Some of other works by Makoto Shinkai I recommend are:
5 Centimeters per Second
The Garden of Words
(Edit): I see that you guys already did a reaction for below movie.
Weathering with You
These give different vibes and some of the stories might lack some dramatic features but they end you with calmness
Voices of a Distant Star is great as well. And Children who Chase Lost Voices from Deep Below. Honestly just watching his filmography in order is good. I had seen several Shinkai films including 5cm/sec before I saw Kimi no na ha, and I think it really improves the experience with how Mitsuha and Taki walking past eachother on the bridge is basically straight out of 5cm/sec, which leads one to genuinely believe that they will not find eachother based on Shinkai's reputation.
Guys nice reaction as always! Hear me out for 1 sec; you two NEED to react to Haikyuu! This is the BEST react channel for Haikyuu! and yet, you guys still didn't start. I SWEAR TO GOD you gonna like it!!! People, help me out here! We need this in our lives!
Yes!!!! Haikyuu!!! Oh my God! 🙌
Yes yes😭
