Time is interwoven, musubi, the flow of time is like a
string, it flows in and out, and tangles in kataware doki or the gods finally answer
the cry of a young girl who wanted so bad to leave her town and out of the universe, and when times takes the power of the metaphysical using the twilight called and find a boy in
Tokyo who will be her boyfriend, when times takes a beautiful disaster to join two hearts together, It all becomes clear as two seemingly ordinary high school students find them selves interwoven in a time exchange of body and experience three years apart from each other to conquer comet and find themselves without the most important thing each other’s name
Your name is an all
round well thought anime that talks about Mitsuha and Taki two high school
living years apart a lot is burdened on
them as they have to save a town form being wiped out from the comet, things become weird as they exchanging each other’s bodies and leaving messages in each other’s phone, they almost meet each other in a train station but she left him only hair string, a very symbolic memento that symbolizes the attachment they both have and the interconnectedess of their lives.
The characters are well drawn and quite similar no stand out character so much as it set at the city of Tokyo and the town of Itomori
Culture and tradition is also reflected as Mitsuha and
Yotsuha have to make the sake of the gods by eating and spitting out rice a ritual
called "kuchikamisake” which would be the way Taki will finally get to Mitsuha, After meeting each they left with no memory of each other, no name, nothing to remember each other by, just a void feeling that something good was lost.
At the end, it is all Musubi “ The flowing of time the
making of the strings, eating, e.t.c Everything flows to be one with everything, back
and forth, twilights and comet” tethering two hearts three years apart
