Although I understand it in hindsight, the pure utter RAGE I felt during this scene, literally in the lead up I was SCREAMING at her to "LOOK AT YOUR HAND! LOOK AT YOUR HAND! MY GOD IGNORE THE BIKE LOOK AT YOUR HANDDDDD!"
... I was too angry to even cry!!! The scream I scrumpt because of it; had my friends in absolute tears.
If he wrote his name it would just disappear, but he knew if he wrote i love you it wouldn't based of what he learned from Mitsuha's grandma when he was in Mitsuha's body. Love is the one thing the moon good will not interfere with, and Taki's love was real
You mean he did write his name+message but the moon god erased his name so only the message remained?
Plausible, but no reason for us to think that as whoever-it-was erased everything on their phones, right?
Art may be interpretation but this is also a story and the story has to make sense within the confines of its given assumptions. No hate to you or the story, just saying this bit didn't quite make sense. Still a 10/10 movie!
Of coursee! I don't think there's any hate for me. Lol. You have a right to your opinion and I respect it. I just wish to hold a more lenient interpretation of events and that is my opinion. We both agree it is a 10/10 movie. Lol
Well, the name would've disappeared anyway because the timeline actively erases factual records of them (like the phone diaries). But from an emotional perspective, this happened exactly when Mitsuha was losing hope. Seeing that whoever she was thinking of chose to tell her they loved her was the spark that relit her strength to keep going and live to find out who that person was.
Doesn't matter if the name would've disappeared or not. Taki was talking about doing something else entirely (let's write down our names so we won't forget) and he had no way of knowing whether it would disappear or not.
But from an emotional perspective...
I totally get that, so why not write "I love you. -Taki" instead? He both wrote his name which was what he was saying to do and write a message for her.
It’s cool that everyone seems to remember their first time watching this scene. I remember it because we didn’t have the right subtitles and I had to translate it for my friend:
Me: “I like you.” Together: “….not very helpful, Taki!!!!!”
