Hi all.

Some news; "Suzume" has become the 15th highest grossing film of all time in Japan. It surpassed "Jujusts Kaisen 0". Less than 2 months until it is released in the U.S.

ohhhh apparently i didn't know there was a thread for Shinkai's work.

i hope we'll get to see it here in Canada as well.

i did see Weathering With You at cinema when it came out.

How was it?

**MsPerfectionist** · 03-09-2023, 06:58 PM

i remember it being brilliant.

**canflam** · 03-11-2023, 05:07 PM

Awesome. I put ''Weathering With You/''Tenki no ko'' on hold at a library today, so I'll hopefully watch this spring.

i watched this week:
-Children Who Chase Lost Voices
-The Garden of Words

In Children Who Chase Lost Voices, interesting world. kind of like, down the rabbit hole feeling.

The Garden of Words was a bit more mellow. connection of the 2 characters in a moment in time.

i got 2 of his movies from the library:
-5 Centimeters per Second
-Weathering with You

Good. "5 Centimeters per Second" I did not know of.

**MsPerfectionist** · 03-27-2023, 09:10 PM

"5 Centimeters per Second" his early work.

i've yet to watch them.

Here is more on it: ''5 Centimeters per Second is a 2007 Japanese romantic drama animated film written and directed by Makoto Shinkai. It theatrically premiered on 3 March 2007. The film consists of three segments, each following a period in the protagonist Takaki Tōno's life and his relationships with the girls around him''

i really love 5 Centimeters per Second. it clearly targets adults.

i rewatched Weathering with you. i like the idea of exploring with weather.

**canflam** · 04-28-2023, 03:44 PM

Yes. Controlling the weather would be a fantastic superpower.

**MsPerfectionist** · 05-02-2023, 09:20 PM

ohh yeah, especially we've been having rainy days lately.

I saw Makoto Shinkai's latest film Suzume last week in theaters. it explores themes of childhood and grief all that mixed with some sci-fi elements. i enjoyed it

**canflam** · 05-11-2023, 05:38 PM

Glad that you enjoyed watching that film. I was not able to watch ''Weathering With You'' last night, so I'll try to see it today instead.

**MsPerfectionist** · 06-06-2023, 06:29 PM
