00:01In 2016, there was one movie that was on every otaku's mind, Your Name.
00:07Your Name has replaced Spirited Away as the highest-grossing anime movie of all time,
00:12with many people saying the film's director, Mokoto Shinkai, will be the next Hayao Miyazaki.
00:17Despite the acclaim, Your Name's storyline is not straightforward.
00:22Events are told out of order, which can add to the twisted plot.
00:25That's where we come in.
00:26In this video, we will be recapping the events of Your Name in chronological order
00:31to help demystify some details audience members may find when watching this amazing film.
00:36Plus, we'll look at the cultural impact this film has had since its release.
00:39Since this is a recap, there will be spoilers if it wasn't already apparent by now.
00:54Before Your Name went on to gain so much acclaim,
00:57Mokoto Shinkai had a few different names for the film before settling on Your Name.
01:02Production of this film went back to 2014,
01:04and in his initial proposal to Toho Animation, the film was first called I Knew It From a Dream.
01:10This was a reference to the Japanese poem Your Connection by Ono no Kamachi.
01:14The other possible title Shinkai had considered was You Are Half of This World,
01:18before settling on Your Name.
01:20Shinkai was inspired by other anime like Ranma 1.5 and Inside Mary,
01:24as well as classic Japanese poem Tori Kaibaya Monogatari.
01:28But perhaps one of the greatest influences came from Christopher Nolan's 2014 Interstellar.
01:34Which makes sense, given the story's themes of love transcending great distances like time and space.
01:39The film was first released at Anime Expo in July of 2016,
01:43before it was shown in Japan in August of that same year.
01:45It would get a wider North American release and a dub by Funimation in 2017.
01:50Your Name's release was massive to say the least.
01:53On release, this film made up 10% of Japan's total box office.
01:58Your Name was the second highest grossing anime film in Japan behind Spirited Away,
02:03and would soon surpass that by earning a gross box office amount of 23 billion yen,
02:10or 109 million dollars.
02:12This has earned Shinkai the often unwanted title of The Next Miyazaki.
02:17Still, the response to Your Name has been positive.
02:20With its blend of amazing visuals and locations,
02:23Mokuto Shinkai stepped into his own with this film,
02:26which would only bolster him further to release his next film,
02:29Weathering With You, which is currently out now.
02:31Despite this high praise and reviews, there is no such thing as a perfect movie.
02:35A note both viewers and critics have brought up is that the plot of Your Name is a little convoluted.
02:41This is not to the film's detriment at all,
02:44but it can take a second viewing to fully follow the timeline of events.
02:47The film presents its events out of order,
02:50and to make things even more complicated,
02:51our two main characters spend a majority of the movie at different times.
02:55Mitsuhai exists in a small city of Itomori three years in the past,
02:59and Taki lives in Tokyo three years ahead.
03:02Well, actually, they're the same age,
03:04but they switch bodies three years apart from one another,
03:07and, well, you can see how that can be complicated.
03:10So, I think we should just start where it all began.
03:17Our film begins with our two main characters,
03:20Mitsuhai and Taki, reciting a cryptic yet poignant message.
03:23Once in a while, when I wake up, I find myself crying.
03:26The dream I must have had, I can never recall,
03:29but the sensation that I've lost something lingers for a long time after I wake up.
03:33I'm always searching for something, for someone.
03:36This feeling has possessed me, I think, from that day when the stars came falling.
03:41It was almost as if a scene from a dream.
03:43Nothing more, nothing less than a beautiful view.
03:47This is said while the comet flies over Itomori,
03:49But actually, this event takes place near the middle of the film.
03:54Our film actually began 1,200 years ago when a comet first appeared and struck the earth,
04:00creating the lake that Itomori would be built upon.
04:02This comet would come again, spelling disaster when it strikes.
04:06Fast forward to our movie's timeline, and Mitsuhai's mother dies.
04:10This would lead to her father abandoning his family and his duties
04:13to the Shinto shrine that they have been entrusted with.
04:15Instead, he goes into politics and becomes the mayor of Itomori.
04:19Needless to say, this strains his relationship with his family.
04:22Most importantly, with Mitsuhai.
04:25Abandoned by their father and left without a mother,
04:27Mitsuhai and her sister would then be raised by their grandma
04:30and be taught the traditions of the shrine,
04:32including how to make kuchikamizake, or mouth-chewed sake,
04:36which is made by chewing rice and then spitting it out to let it ferment into sake.
04:40When Mitsuhai grows up, she and her sister perform the ceremony to create her kuchikamizake.
04:45This would play an integral part in connecting Taki and Mitsuhai later on,
04:49and is perhaps the key that ends up saving the town of Itomori.
04:53Some of the townies watch Mitsuhai's ritual and make little snide remarks about the weird old traditions.
04:59Flustered and sick of living in this backwater town,
05:01Mitsuhai declares she wants nothing more than to move away from the big city.
05:05She wants to live in Tokyo.
05:07And in some cosmic sense, she gets exactly what she wants.
05:12This is where the first body switch between Taki and Mitsuhai takes place.
05:16In the film, this is shown earlier, but it actually happens later.
05:20You see, Taki and Mitsuhai are not only two different people living in two different places,
05:25with Taki living in Tokyo and Mitsuhai living in Itomori, but also different times.
05:30When they switch bodies, Mitsuhai is taking Taki's body three years into the future.
05:35During this first switch, they have no idea who the other person is and believe that it's all a dream.
05:41As such, the two teens kind of treat this as a dream, unknowingly embarrassing the other in
05:46their respective lives. When Mitsuhai switches back, her family and friends all worry about her
05:51and wonder if she's alright. Mitsuhai's friends fill her in about how odd she was acting and how
05:55she forgot all about her locker and how to do her hair. It seems to her that what she experienced
06:00might not have been a dream after all. This causes Mitsuhai to track down Taki and meet him.
06:05There's just one problem. When Mitsuhai and Taki switched bodies, it was three years
06:10into the future. In Mitsuhai's present, Taki has no idea who Mitsuhai is. She finally tracks
06:16him down on the subway, but because they had not switched bodies yet in his timeline, he
06:20doesn't recognize her. Her last effort to make a connection to Taki is to give him her
06:24red ribbon she uses to tie up her hair. When she does, she tells him her name, Mitsuhai.
06:30This helps establish their bond to one another.
06:38Mitsuhai returns home just in time for the festival her hometown throws every year. During
06:44the festival, the comet from before appears. Remember the beginning of the movie when our
06:47two characters recited that little poem? This is when that takes place. And as the comet
06:52splits apart, the unthinkable happens. Mitsuhai and all of Itomori is lost when the comet strikes
06:58Earth. Mitsuhai dies.
07:01What happens next really tests the bounds of space-time. Three years pass, and Taki finds
07:06himself in Mitsuhai's body. This is an alternate timeline before Mitsuhai dies, but before Taki
07:12and her meet. These switches happen for several weeks, and happen about twice a week at random.
07:17The common trigger, though, is sleep. When Taki goes to bed, sometimes he'll wake up as
07:21himself, and sometimes he'll wake up as Mitsuhai. During this point in the film, Taki and Mitsuhai
07:26get to know each other more by experiencing each other's lives. They develop their own
07:30little system of communicating. Mitsuhai leaves notes in Taki's diary app for him to read
07:35when he returns to his body. After a while, Taki wants nothing more than to meet this girl
07:39he's been body swapping with. If only he knew where she lived. He gathers her surroundings
07:44and makes sketches of the town, but it never really occurs to him to ask what the name of
07:48her town is. The switches soon stop, as Mitsuhai died in her timeline, and Taki wants to find
07:54out more about the girl he's been switching with. He takes his friends, and they journey
07:57into the Japanese countryside. Taki soon discovers the fate of Itomori, the town that was destroyed
08:02three years ago when the comet fell. The journal entries Mitsuhai left also delete themselves
08:07off Taki's phone. Any trace of this girl's existence is gone, except for the red ribbon
08:13Taki kept wrapped around his wrist. From there, Taki learns about the tragedy of Itomori, how many
08:19people died, and just how much destruction the comet left after it struck the town that
08:23day. How Taki forgot such a monumental event is kind of astounding. But even so, Taki's
08:29journey ends here. The girl he's had in his mind, and has been developing a relationship
08:34with, is dead. And there's nothing else he could do. Or could he? On the last day Taki
08:39was in Mitsuhai's body, he remembers a shrine he visited that housed something belonging to
08:43Mitsuhai's family. He didn't know exactly where it was, but he knew it would have a clue
08:48as to what he could do. After some searching, he finds the shrine, nestled at the center
08:53of a crater left behind from when a comet hit Japan thousands of years ago. But it's
08:57a separate comet from the one that made the lake at Itomori and the one that killed Mitsuhai.
09:01Inside the shrine, Taki finds the Kuchikamizake Mitsuhai had made, as well as a mural depicting
09:07the comet splitting off across the sky. Now at this point in the movie, things get a little
09:12trippy. Taki drinks the Kuchikamizake, the sake Mitsuhai made, and sees her family's history.
09:18The animation also takes an artistic twist, as we are treated to a procession of Mitsuhai's
09:23family tree. Taki also witnesses Mitsuhai's mother dying, and her father leaving. All at once,
09:28he manages to see everything that led up to this point. And miraculously, Taki wakes up in Mitsuhai's
09:34body once again, on the day the comet is going to strike the town. All this time when Taki and
09:40Mitsuhai switch bodies, everyone else thinks the two are having off days. But grandma finds out what's
09:45happened. She tells Taki, in Mitsuhai's body, that heightened spiritual abilities have been
09:50passed down in the family for generations. While her dad had long abandoned the family
09:55traditions, even Mitsuhai's dad realizes the person he's speaking to is not his daughter.
09:59Taki knows what he has to do. He has to save Itomori from being destroyed by the comet. Well,
10:04actually, he just has to save the people in the town. But in any case, Taki gathers up Mitsuhai's
10:08friends and tries to stage a bomb scare at the town festival so that the citizens will evacuate to the
10:13school building which is outside the comet's danger zone. The plan begins, but while people
10:17are confused and scared of the bomb scare Taki had planned, it's not enough to convince people
10:22to evacuate. No one is heeding their warnings about the comet. While the plan is underway,
10:27there is one thing Taki has to do to make sure it all goes right. He has to get Mitsuhai
10:32back to her
10:33own time to help save her town. Back at the shrine, twilight approaches, the time where it's not quite
10:38day or night, and where different worlds blend together, Taki and Mitsuhai meet. They're still
10:43in each other's bodies, but the two finally meet and recognize one another for the first time.
10:48Emotions run high, as this is the emotional climax of the film. Taki returns Mitsuhai's red ribbon,
10:54the ribbon that she gave him when they first met, before Taki even knew her name. By returning the
10:58ribbon, Taki inadvertently severed their connection. They try and write each other's names on the other
11:03person's palm, but twilight soon ends and the bond is broken. Taki is back in his own body and
11:09time, and Mitsuhai is back in hers. Mitsuhai is back in her body and time, but the comet is about
11:15to hit, and the plan to scare everyone into the school building has failed. People are not aware of
11:20the danger. She only has one chance to save her family and her town, and that involves convincing
11:26her dad to allow the emergency services to evacuate the town. While she struggles to run down a
11:31mountain and back into town, she struggles to remember the person she had bonded with up there.
11:36What was his name? For the life of her, she cannot remember anyone. Taki didn't get to write his name,
11:42but he did manage to write I love you on Mitsuhai's palm before their connection was severed.
11:47She doesn't remember who wrote this or how it got on her head, but she can feel something inside her,
11:52something that gives her the strength to push on against the impossible odds. She reaches her father
11:56in time, and manages to evacuate the city in time before the comet strikes. Now that the town is
12:02saved, the timelines merge into one, and because Mitsuhai never died, she and Taki live in the
12:07present, and because Taki returned Mitsuhai's ribbon, neither of them remember the other's name.
12:12It's like all the events that led up to this point suddenly vanished. However, that's not to say that
12:18they have completely forgotten one another. Twelve years have passed, and the two live their lives
12:22normally, though both of them get the feeling that something or someone is missing from their
12:28lives. We see Taki has graduated college and is now looking for work in Tokyo, but he's not having
12:33any luck. Then, while he's on the train, another passes by, and someone catches his eye. He can't
12:39remember where, but he feels like he might have met that person in another life, perhaps. Mitsuhai is
12:45living in Tokyo now, and on the train sees a man she thought she knew once. At the next stop,
12:50the two frantically look for one another, and they finally meet. Taki meets Mitsuhai.
12:56They ask for one another's name. The camera pans up, and the credits roll. The movie's over,
13:01and our two literal star-crossed lovers are left to remake the relationship they had started 12
13:06years ago when a strange phenomenon allowed them to experience each other's lives in more ways than
13:11most people develop a relationship.
13:18Your Name is more than just a great film. There's a lot we can take away from this film that
13:22American
13:22moviegoers would not normally be exposed to, both culturally and socially. Let's look at Mitsuhai's
13:27life for example. In her town, she and her family are in charge of the Shinto shrine and regularly perform
13:33rituals adhering to the Shinto faith. The ritual we see Mitsuhai perform is her and her sister making
13:38kuchikamisake. Both are dressed in red and white robes to resemble Miko shrine maidens. After a simple
13:44but rhythmic dance, the two chew on some rice and spit it out into a box for it to ferment
13:48into sake.
13:49This ancient form of making sake that literally translates to mouth-chewed sake. The Shinto faith
13:56is practiced to connect present-day Japan to its ancestral roots. This simple yet beautiful ceremony
14:01is meant to establish a theme set throughout the movie, connections. Just like Taki and Mitsuhai
14:07share a connection through time and space, they also connect between the modern culture of urban
14:11Tokyo and the rural culture of Itomori. The two could not be more different at the beginning of
14:16the movie, but by the end, they're both brought together by their connections of experience and
14:20love above all else. This idea of connection is universally applicable, even to our own lives and
14:26our different cultures. Socially speaking, this film emphasizes a familiar kind of love and is not
14:32shown as sexual, like what we're often subjected to when it comes to romance flicks.
14:36Going back to the Kuchikamisake, it not only establishes a cultural connection between Mitsuha
14:41and Taki, but one could make the argument that when Taki drank Mitsuha's sake, they were sharing an
14:45indirect kiss. In Your Name, while the two develop feelings for one another, our main characters never
14:51actually meet. At least, not until the very end of the film, 12 years later. When they do finally meet,
14:57it's as if they had found that piece that was missing inside for so long. Your Name touches on
15:02an often overlooked point in romance, the yearning for a connection beyond the physical. Your Name
15:08takes the often used trope of body switching, not as a comedic tool for goofs and gaffs, but as a
15:13way
15:14for the two characters to develop a relationship and experience each other's lives in a way that only
15:19body switching can do. Those are the events of Your Name explained in chronological order.
15:27I still can't get over the part where Taki drinks the Kuchikamisake to see Mitsuha's ancestral past
15:32and connect with her. What was your favorite part? Let us know in the comments below.
15:35And let us know if you would like to see more of these videos in the future.
