Writing for 10/19

Date : 10/19

Time starting : 4.03 p.m

Idea I am pursuing : Synopsis about a movie I loved and watched recently

Time ending :  4.19 p.m


It is kind of ironic actually how this movie that I loved is actually recommended by a close friend of mine. Before that, I do not even know the movie title or the fact that it even existed in the first place. This movie is titled "Kimi no na Wa" or in English, "Your Name,". The story itself is pretty fascinating to the point that I watched it over and over again.  The movie itself last roughly around 2 hours and it was an animated movie not a live-action one. The plot of the movie revolves around 2 main characters, Taki as well as Mitsuha and how they meet each other in a very mysterious fashion. At some points in their lives, whenever they wake up in the morning, they will find themselves being in the other person body without knowing each other. At first, they thought it is simply a dream and pay the problem no heed. '

The story intensifies by changing how Taki acting in Mitsuha body and the opposite affect the people around them. Mitsuha, being insulted by some of her peers due to her "classic-fashioned" way of upbringing by her grandmother after her mother passed away. Taki, in her body, made it obvious that she (or he, in this case) does not like being jeered at and scared away the students responsible for the insults. On Taki side, Mitsuha helped him gets closer toward his crush at his workplace, Miki by  appealing to Miki through her feminine charms.  Both of them did this out of their own will without knowing they are indirectly living the other person's routine, thinking it is nothing more than a dream.

As the story-line progresses further, they both realized that it is not a dream and at this point, Taki tried searching for Mitsuha. At this part of the story, Taki realized that Mitsuha lived in a district that had been ravaged by a huge meteorite falling at the area from 2 years ago. He realized that they are not living at the same time line and the Mitsuha he is switching places with had long passed during the meteorite incident. Not giving up, Taki somehow managed to switch place with Mitsuha again and warned the district residents, saving the life of many before the impending disaster. After 2 years, they were reunited in the same time line. I oversimplified the story and it might not sound as good from my synopsis but it is different when seen by your own eyes.
