Weathering With You earned more than Your Name Source: GKIDS Weathering With You : 5 facts you need to knowġ. Ready to get to the meteorology of the issue? While we can’t yet report the Weathering With You North American wide release date, we can shower down these five facts about the film - including whether it’s made more than Your Name at the Japanese box office, Makoto Shinkai’s creative process and his favourite storyboarding software.
He quickly runs out of funds, and finds himself lonely and living on the streets - until he meets Hina Amano, a girl around his age who has the power to stop the rain and clear the clouds.
In Weathering With You, high school freshman Hodaka Morishima runs away from his small island town to an unusually gloomy Tokyo. Similar to Shinkai’s last feature, his latest follows a boy-meets-girl-meets-supernatural-forces situation. Given the director’s previous work, it should come as no surprise that the animation and its magical-realism depiction of Tokyo is breathtaking.įorbes critic Ollie Barder wrote, “Like with Shinkai’s other work, the animation for this new movie looks incredible and brings Tokyo to life in a uniquely palpable way.” As anime fans know, the director’s stunning backgrounds and buildings tend to be based on real-life places and structures, including one that plays a pivotal role in the film (more on that below). Both of Shinkai’s features had their soundtracks scored by Nippon band Radwimps, and were planned and storyboarded in Toon Boom Storyboard Pro. Weathering With You is the spiritual successor to the 2016 body-swapping blockbuster Your Name, which became the highest-grossing anime and Japanese film ever until Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away got a 2019 (re)release in China.
