Plot

"Itomori" redirects here. For the minor planet, see 113405 Itomori.

Mitsuha Miyamizu is a high school student in the rural town of Itomori, Japan. Bored of the town, she wishes to be a Tokyo boy in her next life. Soon, she begins to intermittently switch bodies with Taki Tachibana, a boy from Tokyo. On certain days, Taki and Mitsuha wake up in each other's bodies and must live the entire day as the other, reverting when they go to sleep at night. The two set up ground rules for sharing their bodies, communicating via messages on paper, their phones, and their skin. Mitsuha (in Taki's body) sets Taki up on a date with his coworker, Miki Okudera, while Taki (in Mitsuha's body) helps Mitsuha become more popular at school. While in Mitsuha's body, Taki accompanies Mitsuha's grandmother Hitoha and younger sister Yotsuha to the Shinto shrine on a mountain near Itomori, leaving an offering of kuchikamizake made with Mitsuha's saliva. Hitoha explains that God is the ruler over both time and the connections between humans. Mitsuha tells Taki that the comet Tiamat is expected to pass nearest to Earth on the day of the autumn festival. The next day, Taki goes on a date with Miki in his own body; Miki enjoys the date but says she can tell Taki is preoccupied with someone else. Realizing he is falling for Mitsuha, Taki attempts to call her on the phone but cannot reach her. The body-switching stops as inexplicably as it started.

Taki, Miki, and their friend Tsukasa travel to Hida to search for Mitsuha. Taki does not know the name of Mitsuha's village, so he sketches the landscape from memory; a restaurant owner in Takayama recognizes the town as Itomori and offers to take Taki and his friends. When they arrive, they find the town almost entirely decimated by fragments that fell from Tiamat. Since the comet passed three years earlier, Taki realizes that he and Mitsuha were separated by three years, her living in 2013 and he in 2016. He finds Mitsuha's name among the 500 people killed by the comet's impact. Taki begins to lose his memories of Mitsuha, seeing her messages disappear from his phone. In a panic, he races to the shrine and drinks the kuchikamizake. He has a vision and recalls that Mitsuha once came to Tokyo to find him; though he did not recognize her, she gave him a red kumihimo ribbon he has worn ever since. Taki awakens in Mitsuha's body on the morning of the festival, where Hitoha speaks directly to him, explaining that the body-switching phenomenon has always been in their family. Realizing he has a chance to save Mitsuha and the entire town, Taki convinces Mitsuha's friends to help him broadcast an emergency signal, evacuating Itomori before the meteor fragments strike. He then heads to the shrine, where Mitsuha has just woken up in Taki's body. As twilight falls;^{[note 1]} their timelines cross, allowing them to meet in person for the first time. Taki returns Mitsuha's ribbon, and they attempt to write their names on each other's palms, but twilight ends before Mitsuha can write hers.

She returns to the village to see that the evacuation plan failed but convinces her father, the mayor, to order an evacuation. Beginning to forget Taki, she discovers that he wrote "I love you" on her hand instead of his name. Taki awakens in his own time with no memory. Five years later, Taki is a university graduate struggling to find a job. He is obsessed with the impact of Tiamat, when the villagers of Itomori were miraculously saved by a fortuitous evacuation drill, but cannot remember why. One day, he glimpses Mitsuha, who has moved to Tokyo; they race to find each other. As they pass the stairs of a shrine, Taki calls out to Mitsuha, and the two simultaneously ask each other for their name.

Characters

Taki Tachibana (立花 瀧, Tachibana Taki)

Voiced by: Ryunosuke Kamiki^[6] (Japanese); Michael Sinterniklaas (English)^[7][8]

A high school boy in Tokyo. He is a 17-year-old student in his second year at Tokyo Metropolitan High School. He is a talented sketch artist and has aspirations to be an architect. He is short-tempered but well-meaning and kind. He spends time with Miki Okudera, working in a part-time job as a waiter at the Italian restaurant "Il Giardino delle Parole".^{[lower-alpha 2]} A running gag in the film is that whenever Taki wakes up and realizes he has swapped bodies with Mitsuha that day, he immediately begins to fondle "his" breasts in amazement, only stopping once Mitsuha's sister, Yotsuha, sees her. Mitsuha calls him out for the habit when they meet in person for the first time during twilight. Taki later appeared in Shinkai's next film Weathering with You.

He lives with his father, who works at Kasumigaseki; Shinkai states, "I think his mother divorced his father a few years ago".^[9]

Mitsuha Miyamizu (宮水 三葉, Miyamizu Mitsuha)

Voiced by: Mone Kamishiraishi^[6] (Japanese); Stephanie Sheh^[8] (English)

A high school girl dissatisfied with her life in Itomori, a mountainous and rural town of Gifu Prefecture, who was born on December 1, 1995. She is a 17-year-old student in her second year at Itomori High School, but in reality is three years older than Taki. Mitsuha is usually seen with her hair tied up with a dark red braided ribbon that she made by hand herself. She and her sister are maidens of the family shrine. After her mother died, her father abandoned the shrine to pursue politics. She lives with her maternal grandmother, Hitoha, and her younger sister, Yotsuha, who is in elementary school. Mitsuha wishes to have a better life in Tokyo than having unavoidable encounters in the small town with her estranged father, the mayor, as well as her role as a shrine maiden (miko) in rituals for her mother's family shrine including making kuchikamizake, an ancient traditional way of making sake by chewing rice and spitting it back out to be fermented — all of which attracts mockery and disdain from her classmates. When switching bodies with Taki, Mitsuha forbids him from looking at or touching her body. Mitsuha later appeared in Shinkai's next film Weathering with You.

Her birthday contradicts with the film's setting that she is 17 years old in the summer of her second year in high school, because as Shinkai says, "In their mind, they both kind of assumed that they were both born on December 1".^[9]

Voiced by: Ryo Narita^[7] (Japanese); Kyle Hebert^[8] (English)

He has a 50-50 love/hate relationship with his hometown,^{[lower-alpha 4]} Itomori, and from his own perspective, he initiates concrete measures to improve the town's situation,^{[lower-alpha 5]} which earns him the sympathy of Taki (physically, Mitsuha).

In the epilogue, he talks about his upcoming marriage to Sayaka.

Teshigawara is named after Shoko Aizawa's middle school friend, Teshigawara, who appears in the seventh episode of Shinkai's novel The Garden of Words.^[9][10]

She is more commonly referred to as Ms. Okudera (Okudera-senpai) by her colleagues.

When she meets Taki in 2021 after a long time, she is wearing an engagement ring and tells him that she is getting married soon. According to Shinkai: "It's just a backstory, but I believe that Tsukasa is engaged to Okudera".^[9] In the original novel, she is described as working at the Chiba branch of an apparel manufacturer as of 2021.

Production

The idea of the story came to Shinkai after he visited Yuriage, Natori, Miyagi Prefecture in July 2011, after the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred. He said, "This could have been my town". He said that he wanted to make a film in which the positions of the people in Yuriage would be swapped with the viewers. The sketches that Shinkai drew during this visit have been shown in exhibitions.^[15]

In Makoto Shinkai's proposal sent to Toho on September 14, 2014, the film was originally titled Yume to Shiriseba (夢と知りせば, If I Knew It Was a Dream), derived from a passage in a waka poem attributed to Ono no Komachi.^[16] Its title was later changed to Kimi no Musubime (きみの結びめ, Your Connection) and Kimi wa Kono Sekai no Hanbun (きみはこの世界のはんぶん, You Are Half of This World) before becoming Kimi no Na wa.^[17] On December 31, 2014, Shinkai announced that he had been spending his days writing storyboard for this film.^[18]

Inspiration for the story came from works including Shūzō Oshimi's Inside Mari, Rumiko Takahashi's Ranma ½, the Heian period novel Torikaebaya Monogatari, and Greg Egan's short story The Safe-Deposit Box.^[19] Shinkai also cited Interstellar (2014) by Christopher Nolan as an influence.^[20]

While the town of Itomori, one of the film's settings, is fictional, the film drew inspirations from real-life locations that provided a backdrop for the town. Such locations include the city of Hida in Gifu Prefecture and its library, Hida City Library.^[21]

Many locations in Your Name were based on real-life locations. From left to right: Suga-jinja in Shinjuku, Shinano-machi station pedestrian bridge and Yotsuya Station.

Music

Main article: Your Name (album)

Yojiro Noda, the lead vocalist of the Japanese rock band Radwimps, composed the theme music of Your Name. Director Makoto Shinkai requested him to compose its music "in a way that the music will (supplement) the dialogue or monologue of the characters".^[22] Your Name features the following songs performed by Radwimps:

• "Yumetōrō" (夢灯籠, Yumetōrō, lit. 'Dream Lantern')
• "Zenzenzense" (前前前世, Zenzenzense, lit. 'Past Past Past Life')^[22]
• "Sparkle" (スパークル, Supākuru)^[23]
• "Nandemonaiya" (なんでもないや, Nandemonaiya, lit. 'It's Nothing')^[22]

The soundtrack of the film was well received by both audiences and critics alike and is acknowledged as being one of the factors behind its success at the box office.^[22] The film's soundtrack was the runner-up in the "Best Soundtrack" category at the 2016 Newtype Anime Awards, and the song "Zenzenzense" was the runner-up in the "Best Theme Song Category".^[24]

For me, it's incomplete, unbalanced. The plot is fine but the film is not at all perfect. Two years was not enough".^[92]

Notes

1. Referred to in the film as "magic hour" or kataware-doki, which is turned from "kawatare-doki", an old Japanese word meaning "twilight". "Kawatare" (彼は誰) literally means "Who is he/she?"; "kataware" also has the same sound as a word meaning "one part of a couple; fragment" (片割れ). In old Japan, people believed that supernatural occurrences were possible at twilight.
2. 宮水, lit. 'shrine water'
3. 糸守, lit. 'thread guard'

1. The film had a production budget of ¥450 million (≈US$4.5 million). Advertisement costs brought the total budget to ¥750 million (≈US$7.5 million).^[2]
2. The Italian title of Shinkai's previous film, The Garden of Words.
3. From the list of Tiamat comet victims in Itomori in the middle of the film.
4. In the manga, he says, "It makes me want to destroy it all, leaving only beautiful memories."
5. Mitsuha and Sayaka were bemoaning the lack of a café in town; so Tessie began to build one for them.
