here is why even though some might say that this was just a rip off of beauty and the beast, it will always be my favorite anime movie of all time and something that i would recommend people to watch this movie. the story actually connects to us because everyday we are dealing with the real world and the virtual world, not like how weathering with you is about how hodaka would rather have hina stay than to see the sunshine again or how your name is about how mitsuha and taki somehow exchanging their souls and taki saving mitsuha because of the difference in their timeline. this movie actually connects to the society and mindset of people right now in the world, so i feel like even if something like this could never happen, it is still good to see others dealing the same thing as you are from a different perspective. also the songs are heavenly
