What the heck was with the shack? Is Ankari homeless or something? They're clearly right by where she lives because they go under the cherry tree she said grows near her house. Great movie but that part was ridiiiiiculous
Reminds me of how I felt about this one girl in Jr. High. I liked her, she liked me, but we never said it. We split ways, but we still texted in high school. She confessed first, I still liked her, but I couldn't wait for her...
Now I have someone else, but I always wonder... what could have happened...
In our society we are recommended to be independent.But we also had time that we hadn't known the way we will walk on.This is the story of that time.Although this is a sentimental telling,but this is a juvenile at the same.Lost of his image and dream means lost of their relationships.It makes us sad deeply.Because it is the missing of personal life ultimately.We must live strongly.But we also remember brightness of life that may live in memory.This animation put emphasis on this phase of life.
How have you been? It seems like the trains are delayed because of the snow..That's why I'm writing this while I'm waiting for you, Takaki-kun. I'm going to have to do things properly by myself now. I don't have a choice. The same applies to you to0, don't you think?
..I love you, Takaki-kun. Ever since I met you, I've always thought you were a very strong and kind boy. You always protected me. No matter how far away you go, I will definitely always love you. Please remember that.
i dnt get this at all...it says One day while walking down a road, Takaki and Akari appear to pass and recognize each other at a train crossing. At opposite sides of the tracks, they both stop and begin to look back, but the passing trains cut off their view. Takaki waits for the trains to pass, but sees that the woman is gone. After a moment, he smiles to himself and continues walking.... I DON'T GET IT CAN SUM1 EXPLAIN..IS SHE DEAD?
@lalagirl211 lol She's not dead at all. He smiled because the cherry blossoms were falling then and they said they wanted to see the cherry blossoms fall together again.
@lalagirl211 a lot of mangas are longer and more detailed then animes also most mangas have definitive endings whereas quite a few of their anime counterparts are left open ended Inuyasha being an example.
Given that a lot of Shinkai's works revolve around the love of two people not working out, it was refreshing to see that she waited for Takaki all of that time
i was able to keep myself together not crying a single tear till i saw her sitting there alone, that she had waited for so long... and the tears just came flowing out T.T
:D YEA!! FUCK YEAH!!! YOU GO AKARI!!! YEAH WOOT WOOT SHE WAITED :D YAAAAAAAAAAY. o_o sorry, got a little excited xD love this anime! I'm an artist and I think I just love this art...the animation is just amazing. And I write too, so the plot is just like discombobulating.
it's xmas eve...it is 2 am already i'm just gonna finish this tomorrow...I'm kind of tired....anyways, Merry Christmas everyone :D and have a happy 2010 :'D
ill have to finish this first before writing a comment hehehe but yeah this is a slice of life they were saying^^...comment me pls or send me a message or add me
wow...really touching. amazing. best anima i ever saw in my life. the end was truly sad. how everything ended and how destiny pulled them apart. wasnt there a part where akari passes him when their older and he thinks he sees her. thsn a train appears and shes gone?
this was pretty short but i loved it. truly amazing
if the characters cried when they parted i reckon i would have broke down too it's such a sad and beautiful love story if something like that would happen to me i wouldn't mind seperation as long as there was someone that liked me
My eyes watered up when Takaki spotted her after getting off the train. I even gasped and almost slapped myself for it. The dialogue is AMAZING. It's romantic without being unbelievably corny and irritating! And oh, oh - I could go on for days.
I was kind of expecting/hoping they'd show Akari running along side the train to keep up with Takaki's window as they said their goodbyes (or something like that.)
But I still like this anime. The animation is beautiful, the characters are likeable and the dialog is romantic without being too cheesy.
Are you being stupid or something? protecting here means when your partner is lonely or needs someone to talk to, you are the one she/he will look for, not anyone else but just you. That's the real meaning protecting.
I felt so depressed when I watched his train pulling out of the station, leaving her alone again. If I was him I don't know if I could have left her, but then I don't know if I would have been able to go see her to begin with either.
