00:00
The garden of words opens with the sound of rain.
00:04
The camera pans to a quiet Tokyo morning where we meet Takao Akizuki,
00:09
a 15-year-old student with a passion for shoemaking.
00:13
The rain draws him to a serene, lush garden in Shinjuku Gyoen,
00:17
a place he retreats to whenever the weather allows.
00:20
This beautifully animated setting, with its vibrant greenery and calm atmosphere,
00:25
mirrors the feelings of isolation and introspection that both Takao and the garden represent.
00:31
Takao skips school on rainy mornings to work on his dream of becoming a professional shoemaker,
00:37
sketching designs in the quiet of the garden.
00:39
As he begins his routine, he notices a woman sitting under the same gazebo Yukoi Yukino.
00:44
In her mid-twenties, Yukari appears mysterious,
00:48
sipping beer and eating chocolate in the early hours.
00:51
The two strangers sit in silence, but something draws them to one another.
00:56
Over time, the rainy days continue and Takao and Yukari cross paths repeatedly in the garden.
01:02
Their relationship unfolds without them knowing each other's names
01:05
as they talk about their lives, dreams and personal struggles.
01:09
Yukari reveals little about herself,
01:12
while Takao opens up about his passion for shoemaking,
01:15
something that sets him apart from his peers.
01:18
The quiet scenes in the garden are often punctuated by gentle rain,
01:22
symbolizing both the tranquility and the unspoken emotions between the two.
01:27
Shinkai's masterful animation brings the scenes to life
01:30
with delicate attention to detail the rain falling,
01:33
leaves swaying in the wind,
01:35
and reflections in puddles all contribute to a sense of calm and introspection.
01:41
As the rainy season progresses,
01:43
Takao begins to realize that Yukari is dealing with more than just personal confusion.
01:48
She is a high school teacher who has been emotionally withdrawn due to rumours spread by students.
01:52
Though Takao initially doesn't know,
01:55
Yukari's struggles are intertwined with the very school system he belongs to.
02:00
One fateful day, the rainy season ends abruptly,
02:03
leaving Takao without an excuse to skip school and visit the garden.
02:07
The clear weather signifies the end of their meetings
02:10
and their bond seems lost in the sudden change.
02:13
However, Takao decides to visit Yukari's school,
02:16
where he learns the truth about her.
02:18
This revelation shifts the dynamic of their relationship no longer just strangers,
02:22
they now understand each other's pain.
02:25
In the film's emotional climax,
02:28
Yukari and Takao meet once meet garden under a torrential downpour.
02:32
This time, Takao boldly confesses his feelings,
02:36
expressing his desire to make shoes for her,
02:38
as a way of being closer to her.
02:40
Yukari, overwhelmed by her own feelings,
02:43
tearfully reveals that she's leaving Tokyo to escape the emotional turmoil.
02:48
They embrace in a bittersweet moment,
02:50
realising the depth of their connection,
02:52
but knowing that their paths are destined to diverge.
02:56
The film ends with Yukari leaving,
02:59
and Takao continuing to work toward his dream of becoming a shoemaker.
03:03
He finds solace in the thought that the garden,
03:06
and the time they shared together,
03:07
will remain a cherished memory.
03:09
The final scenes show Takao returning to the garden alone,
03:13
but with a renewed sense of purpose,
03:15
as he reflects on the fleeting,
03:17
yet profound connection he shared with Yukari.
