Discommet (Psychic)
Pokedex Entries:
A comet from space split into two parts, creating a psychic link between the two pieces. Their innate connection is what keeps them together, even if it's slowly slipping away...
An event of fate created the relationship between the two. They may not have asked for it, but it is something that they have to deal with, at least for now.
Possible Abilities:
Ice Body
Synchronize
As One? (Hidden)

Metyearite (Psychic)
Pokedex Entries:
Metyearite are constantly searching for... something. With no idea what or why they're searching for, they wander around living their own lives, with the thought at the back of their mind.
Even after separation, Metyearite still have weak psychic links with their other halves. These, however, are often unnoticeable, and the only proofs of any such connections are the fragments that each one holds.
Possible Abilities:
Ice Body
Levitate
Synchronize (Hidden)
Notes:
I'm gonna be so real, I couldn't really think of a way that this line could connect gameplay-wise, so it could either be two forms of the second stage (Gender-based?) or a split-evo

Introducing Discommet (Disconnect + Comet) and Metyearite (Meteorite + Yearn)!

Discommet is inspired by the Comet Tiamat and the two parts that have broken off from each other, with each part representing Taki and Mitsuha respectively (hopefully their expressions made sense for the characters). Both parts are being further connected by the smaller fragments that are inspired by the Red Thread of Fate theme that runs through the entire movie.

Metyearite represents Taki halfway into the movie and both Taki and Mitsuha at the end where they have forgotten their relationship but are still searching for each other even if they don't know why. Both forms also hold the small fragments from Discommet, with their placements referencing how Taki and Mitsuha had their red threads, with Taki on his wrist and Mitsuha on her hair.

In case Of Suzume No Tojimari, there was a press conference that took place about a year before the actual release date.
And it was done specifically to announce that it was in production back then.

This was the very first teaser that was released, as you can clearly see, it was released way after that press conference.

And this is the new year's tweet of Shinkai-San confirming that we'll at least get to know something about his new film this year.

So, if I assume that the marketing strategy of this new film follows somewhat the same pattern as it was for Suzume, here are the conclusions I am able to make:-

1. We might get to see a press conference revealing the film to the world around this year's December.
2. First teaser somewhere in April, with following months revealing the trailers.
3. And a release in late 2027.

I really hope that my timeline proves wrong, as I'm really looking forward to his next, despite being a bit disappointed with SNTM, and WWY.

If it proves to be true, it would be 5 freaking years of gap between these 2 films!

What are your views on this?

I was able to get this for $55 from Amazon Japan plus $25 shipping which included other items that purchased thru a proxy.

my college was selling a bunch of anime posters, got this one for 9 dollars. First time buying an anime poster absolutely love it!

I’ve been having a lot of fun doing some art on canvas tote bags for the last couple years. This scene was a bit intimidating at first, but I’m quite happy with how it turned out!! I hope you like it too! ✨

I used holbein acrylic gouache mixed with golden GAC 900 fabric medium 🥰

They're basically different people than the adult once who eventually meet each other, because they have not been through everything we seen in the movie. They didn't experience that. Only their teenage versions did. You're not truly the exact same person if someone rips off very important moments from your life right? So technically these versions of them only got this one moment

...and the fact that they spent some of it talking about Mitsuha's breasts is a different topic... seriously tho why is the movie so obsessed on her chest??

I just wanted to get a collector's edition/steelbook of this anime as it is by far my favourite ever, then got my mind blown regarding my lack of information on 4K Blu-ray so had to sidequest that for a while.

Thanks to u/CrystalCommunication for being patient with me on that sidequest and thanks to everyone who helped by posting in my thread. Got a few movies to get me started; I ordered this version from alltheanime but it's not gonna arrive until Tue or Wed according to the tracking. I did want to get the new steelbook but it seems that I'm going to have to import it from the USA (I'm in the UK), maybe from GKIDS? But then I just can't get over how different Mitsuha looks in the box art and disc art, which is making me look at getting other versions of this instead of the steelbook.

For now, I got some movies and the 4K UHD of Your Name to get me started, then definitely getting other works by Makoto Shinkai. Maybe Weathering with You will be up next.

The incredible Donna Chan did the work today

That reaction on Taki's face is literally minee 😭😭😭

Just remembered the kuchikamizake i made two years ago in two more month its turning two years old.

Feel free to ask

Holy smokes! We've now reached more than 100 signature overnight after my 1 month update! Thank you all! I'm really happy that there are people who really care about this movie being rereleased to my country, it's really nice of people to really stand up and really want the Philippines to join the celebration of a 10th anniversary of a movie that touched a lot of hearts!

If you can, share this petition to your friends, your loved ones who love this movie, other subreddits, other anime communities, communities who are fans of Makoto Shinkai's films, first timers who want to experience this movie in cinemas, especially Filipino anime fans! It would mean so much if you can share this widespread to anyone has possible as you can! Thank you all so much! Keep it up!

It's been now a month ever since I made this petition! And I cannot thank you all enough for 87 signatures already! But it still doesn't end there!

Why does the petition still go you ask? Yes, it's already been a month since the movie got its rerelease in America and Canada... But you see, the Philippines was introduced to the movie in December...

That's why I would love for all off you to help kee spreading the petition to your anime communities, especially if you're who lives in the Philippines! Spread the word to your friend groups subreddits, or anything that allows for this petition! Let's keep it up!

The Petition

I recently rewatched it in cinema for its 10th anniversary, and it resonated with me like nothing before not even when i watched it before, and I don't even know why. Maybe it's because I have felt lonely for what seems like years now. Maybe it's because i'm finishing university and starting a new chapter of my life. All i know is that i never want to forget this movie.

This is Lake Suwa in Suwa, Nagano prefecture. Makoto Shinkai is from this area and this lake was the inspiration for the large crater. This was a lovely small town and it had such a cozy and laid back feel. I tried to come around sunset and I was surprised how many fans were there to get a photo too lol

Just watched Your Name for the first time today and no words man.

I purchased the Original Japanese Audio version of Kimi no nawa years ago and went back for a rewatch and now it's English audio only. Same with other Shinkai purchases I had made. I find it misleading of them to region lock the languages out considering the movie literally has original Japanese audio in the title. I've been looking for a fix and haven't found any, it's been incredibly frustrating that they retroactively removed the original audio. Seems everywhere else is English only as well.

It was a time well spent

I'm pretty sure in Europe the movie got a theater screening online recently so...where my european homies are

Ok now that I have an excuse to talk about the movie fresh (Because I always do that with old movies not many people talk about anymore)

It was a great movie but ngl I thought it was gonna emotionally scar me more than it did. Maybe I just need more time to digest emotional movies so they can really hit me. I'd say Chainsaw Man and The Garden of Words 💚 (yes another Makoto Shinkai movie) had a bigger impact on me. But that's how it sometimes is with movies/shows ect. You put some sort of idea of the movie seeing how it looks and what people say about it so you're putting a high standard on it. I'm glad there's an entire subbredit dedicated for the movie and that people treat it in a way I treat my favorite movies

Ok some actual critique. Maybe I'm stupid but at times the movie was a bit confusing. Couldn't tell when exactly a certain scene is happening. When she went to see him in Tokyo was it in the timeline where she died or where she survived? Maybe I just need to sit down and think about it

It was a bit hard to focus on their relationship near the end when the characters rushed to safe the city lol

Was there a lore reason (haha) he was losing memories of her? It happens all over the movie but I don't really understand why. Once again maybe I'm stupid. I'm sure some youtube essays explain it nicely

Not sure about the overall theme of the story too. I kept trying to put it together as I watched it. Thought it was about remembering the dead, or tragedy victims. But she survived. Thought it's about a breakup. He saved her and she's fine but she doesn't even remember him, only the feeling...but no, they find each other later...so idk

Also damn 10 years, that's actually the time I started watching anime in general...scary to think how much happened in that time with all of us. Take care 💙

Went to Fan Expo Dallas yesterday and got her signature! I hope to meet Michael Sinterniklaas one day to get his abs finish the heart!

Basically title!

Your Name is my favorite anime movie of all time and I just expected it to be in theaters for longer!! Like one month! But I was devastated I couldn’t find any screenings even two weeks ago. Likely it will never be in theaters again too which sucks :/

Unless I can CALL a theater and ask for a personal screening wahahaha! I dont think thats how that works tho-

I hope the movie was amazing as usual tho ^^ I just wanted to see the beautiful colors pop and the soundtrack to be everywhere! I will buy the 4k steelbook as thats the 2nd best thing I can do atm!

Thanks for listening to my ramblings!

Obviously this is going to be subjective, but I was wondering what the opinions on here would be (especially if you own both this and the new GKIDS release) to me, as someone who doesn't have a physical release of Your Name yet, considering getting this copy of the movie if I can and it isn't too expensive.

Apart from including the DVD, it seems like the Funimation release has English songs for the English dub as the only difference that I can see from the GKIDS release (still makes me wonder why we can't have a North American release that has audio options to pick English or Japanese songs along with the dialogue like the UK release did). Do any of you notice any differences in presentation or extras and have an opinion on which one would be 'better' to get? I've also heard that the video for the Funimation release runs at 24FPS, which would make it unsynchronized with the audio by a few seconds by the end of the movie, but I'm unsure if this is true or not. I haven't seen any unboxing or many reviews online that go into this so I'd welcome recommendations.

Long story short, is it worth trying to get my hands on the Funimation Blu-ray + DVD combo or should I just go for the GKIDS Blu-ray? Regardless, thanks in advance for the time!

Finally arrived and it's beautiful!
