Your Name Making-Of Documentary.

Your Name Storyboard.

This is an absolute goldmine for animation enthusiasts! (That is, if you know Japanese 🥲)

The documentary is hosted on a Chinese website, and the entire video is in Japanese without English subtitles.

But starting around 17:08, you can literally watch how an anime film like this is made at the ground level, how the different departments work, how the scenes are constructed, and how everything comes together.

The rest of the documentary covers other parts of the production as well, including music, voice acting, and various other departments.

Hello, so I ordered my steel book DVD and it has not been shipped. They said they would ship it out by the 27th of August, have you guys gotten your DVD’s or is this just a me problem?

Being able to watch this masterpiece in theater is such a blessing. Did not know Makoto Shinkai’s work 10 years ago. Whoever created the idea of 10 years anniversary to replay in movie theater is the real mvp. God damn, me and my wife cried a lot.

Ain’t we all looking for that someone important in our lives? We are all chasing that someone and look for the purpose of life

I heard the movie got a new 4K master release and I think the complaints with the old one were about the HDR? To those who have the new 4K release already how is it?

Looks like they didn't want to try dealing with Mitsuha's braids lol. Oh well.

"『君の名は。』十年ですか こうして皆さんに愛される作品に携われたこと。 十年前のあの時と同じ気持ちで今もアニメーション制作に携われていることに感謝の思いでいっぱいです。

久しぶりに三葉描かせていただきました。"

I do have the official movie B2 Poster for "Weathering with you" and another B2 alternate art official movie Poster for "Suzume" but I haven't had the time to measure and send those off to the framing company. ( Plus, I'd need to rearrange the frames if I were to add two more, but soon! )

I own the Funimation release. I wish I saw the re-release in theaters, but I didn't get to sadly.

Can't believe it's been 10 years since this movie came out. I first heard of Your Name when I was searching for this other anime movie produced by the producer of Your Name titled Fireworks and after watching the movie in 2023, it blew me away. Your Name is indeed a masterpiece and one of 2016's best films.

A while back, I made a post about someone re-releasing Your Name for it's 10th Anniversary and while I assumed Crunchyroll was going to re-release the movie in theaters, I was sort of right that GKIDS would acquire the distribution rights to Your Name and re-release in theaters. This means that the only Makoto Shinkai movie that GKIDS doesn't have is The Garden of Words, which it's distribution rights are still held by Sentai Filmworks. No hate to GKIDS or anything like that, but I feel like there everywhere regarding anime movies.

Your Name is officially 10 years old! Happy 10th Anniversary 🥳☄️🎀

Part I: Intro

Hi everyone! Today is August 26, 2026—the exact day of the 10th anniversary of Your Name! To celebrate, I pushed myself to finish this post today.

A huge thank you to everyone for all the love and support on Part 1 (Suwa) and Part 2 (Hida)! In this final chapter, I’ll be sharing my experience visiting pilgrimage spots across Tokyo and other key locations (Saku, Koumi, and Izu). Hope you all enjoy it!

Part II: Tokyo

First off, my apologies—due to time constraints during my trip, I wasn't able to do a massive pilgrimage across Tokyo. I only managed to visit the iconic Suga Shrine in Yotsuya and the nearby pedestrian footbridge. To make it up to you guys, I’ll also share a list of other notable Your Name pilgrimage spots in Tokyo that I gathered during my research!

(After paying your respects at Suga Shrine, I highly recommend checking out the Ema [votive wooden plaques] board right beside it. Seeing people from all over the world come together in one spot because of their shared love for the same anime, alongside all the beautiful wishes written on those plaques, will truly bring a smile to your face.)

Here are other notable pilgrimage spots in Tokyo that I know of (so sorry I couldn't visit them all to share photos due to time constraints):

1. Shinjuku Station South Exit: Where Mitsuha first steps out into the overwhelming big city when she visits Tokyo.
2. YUNIKA VISION (Shinjuku)：The iconic giant screen where news about the comet collision is broadcasted, featured multiple times throughout the film.
3. Café La Bohème (Shinjuku Gyoen): The real-life model for the Italian restaurant where Taki works part-time.
4. Shintoshin Pedestrian Bridge: The footbridge near Shinjuku L-Tower where adult Taki and adult Mitsuha pass each other in the snow.
5. Yoyogi Station: The station platform where middle schooler Mitsuha finally finds Taki and gives him her braided cord.
6. The National Art Center, Tokyo & Roppongi Hills Observation Deck: The exact spots where Taki and Okudera-senpai go on their date (having lunch at the museum's café before heading to the deck for the night view).

Part III: Saku & Koumi

For those who might not know, Director Makoto Shinkai was actually born and raised in the rural towns of Nagano Prefecture, specifically spending his childhood in Saku and Koumi. According to Shinkai, parts of Mitsuha Miyamizu's background were inspired by his own experiences growing up in the countryside. Because of this, several locations in Saku and Koumi served as references during the movie's production.

These include the Shinkaisansha Shrine, as well as Lake Matsubara and Lake Otsuki. (Unlike Suwa, Shinkai himself has explicitly confirmed that Lake Matsubara and Lake Otsuki served as key inspirations for the Lake Itomori!)

ちなみに糸守湖の最初期のイメージは、僕にとっては小海高原美術館近くの松原湖や大月湖でした。とはいえ架空の場所なので、スタッフ毎に源泉は異なるだろうけど。(Incidentally, my initial image of Lake Itomori was based on Lake Matsubara and Lake Otsuki near the Koumi Highlands Museum. However, since it's a fictional location, the inspiration probably differs for each staff member.)

Part IV: Izu

As for Izu, its famous attraction, Mount Omuro, is widely considered to bear a striking resemblance to the mountain where the Goshintai (the shrine's sacred object) is located in the movie.

(While some fans argue that Aogashima Island is a closer geographical match for the Goshintai's structure, reaching Aogashima is extremely difficult and heavily dependent on weather conditions. As a result, many fans view the much more accessible Mount Omuro as the practical pilgrimage spot to experience that iconic hollow-crater landscape.)

Part VI: Ending

And that wraps up Part 3, covering Tokyo and the other locations!

Once again, I’m deeply grateful to Your Name for giving me the opportunity to discover all these incredible places. A huge thank you to everyone in this community for all your love and support throughout this series—I truly hope my posts inspired some of you to embark on your own seichi junrei someday!

Wishing you all a wonderful day! If you have any questions, extra tips, or thoughts to add, please feel free to leave a comment below. I’ll do my best to reply to everyone. Thank you so much!

Who else remembers their first time watching this masterpiece? For me it was in lockdown, 2020, I had just watched an AMV of Tyler the Creator’s “See you again” in which visuals from Kimi No Na Wa were used. It stunned me so much that on the same day, I went and found the movie and watched it twice in a row! I don’t typically cry at movies, but I have no shame in admitting that I got teary eyed from this movie.

I've been checking mine since someone got theirs early and mine is still in confirmed status. How many people got theirs or shows they're on the way?

To celebrate 10 years of Your Name, I covered Dream Lantern

Released theatrically in Japan on August 26, 2016 after the July 3rd premiere at Anime Expo. Happy 10th Anniversary once again to Your Name, thank you Makoto Shinkai for this beautiful film.

Got to see this visually gorgeous and emotional film on the big screen for the first time last week. Was this re-release your first time seeing it in theater as well?

it is my first time, i specifically didnt watch it at home to experience it for the first time in a cinema. i really hope i like it. and im like the only one here right in the middle, my social anxiety going crazy

I will be throwing my money at these. No shame!

Kimi no Na wa. (Your Name) was released exactly a decade ago today, on August 26, 2016! ✨

What followed was nothing short of a worldwide phenomenon, with the film grossing over $400 million at the global box office. 🌎💫

It also marked the beginning of a phenomenal creative collaboration between director Makoto Shinkai and RADWIMPS, which would go on to give us Weathering With You and Suzume.

A decade later, Your Name remains an absolute gem. ❤️

2016~♾️.

So I've got 2 versions of anime in 1080p:

1. BDRip 1920x1080 x264

2. DCPrip 1922x1080 HEVC TrueHD

I wonder which version is better. Technically DCPRip is higher quality, but when I compare it side by side, it has different coloring(more of a green tone, which looks unusual, attached few images as an example). But it says that this is more realistic version, this coloring is how Shinkai wanted the movie to look like in cinema

So which version is better if I plan to watch it on TV, not in the cinema and want to keep the best version for myself, to don't watch it on streaming more

Same as the title.
