A manga adaptation of Makoto Shinkai’s anime film about a teen who wants to become a shoemaker befriending a young woman he meets in a pagoda on rainy days.
We’ve talked about this movie on an episode a long time ago. It’s a gorgeous film but we really weren’t fans of the whole teacher/student romance because it’s super cliche and gross. I checked out this manga adaptation but I felt it didn’t really change my opinion of the story.
I’d recommend checking out the movie as long as you’re OK with a story about a teacher/student stuff. It should be interesting to see some of Shinkai’s themes that are carried over into Your Name.
