A teenage boy and girl embark on a quest to meet each other for the first time after they magically swap bodies.

Critics Consensus

As beautifully animated as it is emotionally satisfying, Your Name adds another outstanding chapter to writer-director Makoto Shinkai's filmography.

Kristen Yoonsoo Kim

Brooklyn Magazine

Beautifully animated (we're talking Studio Ghibli standards here), Your Name captures that sensation of waking up from a dream you wish lasted longer, or misplacing a name that's still warm on your tongue, but has just departed.

By the time Your Name reaches its moving finale, the Next Big Thing tag doesn't seem quite enough for Shinkai. He's arrived already.

By the time Your Name reaches its final half-hour or so, the film has moved so far beyond its initial premise that if you think back to the beginning, you'll be astonished by how far it's come.

Rated: 5/5

Spotlight on Film

An emotionally intense, unforgettable viewing experience, filled with “coming-of-age” fun and spiritual longings.

AniMat's Review (YouTube)

As much as it is very well done, I don’t think it’s worth putting it up on such a high pedestal on par with the works of Hayao Miyazaki. Your Name is good, but for me, it's not worthy of breaking Spirited Away’s record good.

Rated: 8/10

Words can describe my thoughts on this movie, because they just aren't enough to capture its brilliant and emotional storytelling, paired with its literally jaw-dropping animation. This is a romance that goes beyond the typical cliche and it absolutely soars.

I watched it when i was studying grade 8 and oh, the memory it gave for me, that was wonderful. When i watch it again, Nostagia has brought me back that time. the time i was immersed in it, in the story of Your name

An unforgettable work, I think it expresses a delicate and subtle emotion that is difficult to capture in our daily life. It makes us see the courage and impulsiveness in youth instead of just telling a love story.
