I don't see any spoilers. Seems like people are speculating based on fairly vague imagery.

Just to underscore the issue for those who aren't following: the music video does not, I repeat, does not...

Guys, for the last time...

The movie takes place in 1996. There was NO wide usage of mobile phones in the mid-90's!

So, no, they could not just call each other. It's not a plot hole.

Oh, man. I'd second the opinion above, but I'm too busy laughing.

A Shinkai movie not released in North America? You must be smoking something.

I'll bet you a hundred against a cent that not...

Too bad we won't learn anything new about the surfer dudette for some months now, until the DVD comes out.

I rather doubt that Yahoo! will do another such internet broadcast (which was, by the...

I think it is one of Shinkai's signature features when he pauses his attention to small details, like hands holding on to straps, or brief look as the moving steps between carriages, or the lamps on...

I don't think it's about "working", at least, not in the healthy sense of the word. The relationship between Takaki and Akari barely survives, but that's not the point.

The point of the story is...

Isn't the plot taking place in 1996? One of the magazines Takaki buys seems to have that year on it.

So, if it does, then cellphones wouldn't be as ubiquitous as they are today. I have no idea...

There's an uncanny resemblance between "Hoshi no Koe" and "Sakura".

Of course, ALL of Shinkai's works deal with the issues of distance, broken relationships and the means by which lovers stay...

However, the other two stories build up on this one, so they are not completely stand-alone.

The song is by Masayoshi Yamazaki. It's called "One more time, one more chance", and it's actually his first hit, which came out in 1996.

I don't know who does the incidental music, but I am...

Funny, because that's the very shot I was thinking of, and to me it looks more like a "surreal artistic imagery", rather than straight-laced in-your-face science-fiction.

Let's just hope that the promised 3 cinematic novellas combined by their theme DO stay as 3 novellas.

Because Shinkai isn't exactly a master of the feature film genre. He has a lot more success...

Holy lighting effects, Batman!

This was certainly promising. I always wondered how will Shinkai be able to pull of fantastic visuals without his usual sci-fi storyline, and this is the answer.

Yup. DaFool is right on the money.

I consider Shinkai to be the nowaday contributor to the Luminist traditions of impressionist landscape painting. Whether the American school of mid-to-late XIX...

Short stories are what he does best. I think Kumou no Mukou, Yakusoku no Bashou would have benefited if he never expanded it into a feature film. So I feel great that he is doing short stories again....
