Thank you so much for watching the video! I'm not expecting this to get too many views, so shares are REALLY appreciated! Twitter, Reddit, your dog, it all helps the video out! Let me know what content has positively influenced your life! NOTE: I say "animes" in the video sometimes, which is supposedly wrong as anime is plural, so whoops, I was just so excited I started blurting out nonsense I guess hehe

I wish I could erase my memory and watch this movie again

When Taki wrote "I love you" instead of writing his name, I was both left broken and left painfully in love with that scene. If Taki wrote his name, it'll be just forgotten and wiped out just like what happened to Mitsuha's written diary and other memories of him to her. Writing "I love you" left Mitsuha remember the feeling of being love and letting her to continue living the life she deserve. The heart will never forget.

Your name changed my life now i miss my GF more and more i lost her a year ago from cancer this movie tells me that im still connected with her idk how but i love u jenny miss you so much 😥

I think this anime taught me that I need to start living. And there is always someone out there for me.

Kimi no Nawa is a classic. It's truly amazing how anime can change people's perspectives and affect their lives.

Two of the best anime movies I’ve ever seen is. 1. A Silent Voice 2. Your Name ❤️💙

One of the realest quotes in the video is that animes know their audience are smart

This movie helped me to realize how deep the connection through the opposite sex can become. It’s not physical, it’s emotional.

Aaa, I remember watching Kimi No Nawa for the first time and I bawled my eyes out. The music and cinematography in this movie is phenomenal! Great video!!!

Browntable's got great taste in anime. I remember back when the whole anime community was talking about this movie and i didn't watch it because the community likes to over hype things alot. Then a year later i gave it a go and i was incredibly surprised! This movie really blew me away.

Your Name is definitely my favourite movie ever. It is so perfect in ways I can't explain. I have watched it least 7 times already and read the manga. It has too, affected me! Thank you Makoto Shinkai! ❤️

You can tell just how much of an effect the film has had on me when, just playing that seconds long clip of the pen cut, my stomach dropped and I was close to tears.

The scenes where the film blends CGI with the rest of the animation are just magnificent.

It’s only been a few movies that made me cry and happy at the same time but this is on a new level 😂

This might sound very corny but having been in quarantine forever now, I watched this movie a few months ago and it shocked me into feeling something again. I think the main thing is how healthy its portrayal of love is. It's so rare to see something in the west where the love between characters is just built on supporting each other, as opposed to toxic slow burn back and forths, shared superficial interests, or unrealistic meet-cutes. Taki and Mitshua support each other's lives and stand up for the other when they won't stand up for themselves. I love the scene where Taki confronts Mitshua's dad, for instance. It reminded me what a healthy relationship looks like. The plot might be fantasy, but the foundation of their relationship is real.

Your ‘rant’ at the end is exactly how I feel about anime. I spent years beating myself up thinking I was picking an ‘easy’ medium and that I should only be allowed to enjoy storytelling if it came from classic literature. Then at some point I realised anime is exactly what you described and so much more! I’m so glad I found an art form that truly speaks to me :’) Ps: you should watch Hyouka and Shinsekai Yori if you haven’t already :)

Happy news for Your Name fans. Makoto Shinkai is writing and directing another animated movie called Weathering With You. A beautifully animated and musically elegant trailer has dropped. It drops in Japan Jul 19th. PS - It seems Radwimps will be doing the music again as well.

I can't say about other animes but "Your Name." was really something that affect me that I can't explain...

Every single time I watch Your Name, I end up bawling my eyes out. This movie means so much to me 💙

Man the ost always makes me wanna watch it again and again. Radwips rocked it as always

When you made the community post saying that you were going to make a video on this movie I had never seen it before so I decided to watch it because of your recommendation. I just want to say thank you for introducing me to one of my new favorite anime movies oh, it was shockingly good and emotional.

Wow, it’s incredible how similar my relationship with anime is to yours. In my childhood, only things like Naruto and Dragon Ball would be in my radar, and I always thought it was a stupid medium with exaggerated plots, expressions and I just couldn’t watch it. Only last year, after a lot of resistance, did I actually watch anything anime in its entirety, and that was Death Note. Despite the wacky intros, it was such a serene, serious and smart show and i really loved it, so it served as my gateway into anime. After that, I tried something wackier, My Hero Academia, and was blown away by the heart it had. Now, every time I watch any new anime, I discover a new side of the medium, new animation styles, techniques, new genres, themes.... As you said, beaming with creativity. Your Name really isn’t a traditional movie, it’s very much about the ride and the message overall is pretty simple, what made it special for me is the fact that it’s anime - the facial expressions, the cinematography, the sound, voice acting, the feels - I truly believe it could never have worked for me as a live action or traditional western animation movie. That’s how much these great pieces of content have changed me: from despising and making fun of them to cherishing them in a way i could never cherish any other medium. Love it ❤️

I got to the half way point in the movie, started crying and didn’t stop until the credits. This movie broke my heart and make it feel full at the same time. Kimi no Nawa is magical and beautiful. A story of love I’ll never forget

Dude this movie is so mind boggling that at the end it just leaves you confused, yet somehow you understand it. Its very hard to explain, but i just love this film basically

Man, I was trying so hard to let myself to not cry during the video. Probably because I've watched Your Name more than countable times, and crying every time watching it after understanding it what it means (the 4th time prob?) and my THIS IS my FAVORITE anime film too

Man, you truly are a storyteller. The way you talked troughout the whole video made me feel goosebumps.

honestly this is is probably the best analysis video i've ever seen. you really out did yourself good job dude

I didn't enjoy your name as much my first time watch but HOLY CRAP I was blown away the second time. I focused too much on the beauty of the animation and wanting to cry that I didn't focus on everything else that makes this movie so incredible

When you put out the post saying you were making this video I was so excited to hear your views on it, not to say it isn’t a popular movie but I hope it opens people up to giving anime a go because it’s so incredible. Thank you for making another amazing video, buzzing for the next 👍🏻

The shots and the "photography" in this movie is pure art, I was shocked when I first saw it. I think is the best anime movie I have ever seen.

A silent voice related to me more but your name affected me more. The animation in both was amazing but I loved your names much better, the sun shining behind Takis back when he was looking through their memories is an example and the soundtrack goes to your name. But they both made me cry but your name stuck with me more. So in the end your name was better in my opinion

I love when you expand your videos beyond marvel and dc

Wow, beautiful video!! Love how you so eloquently highlighted the masterpiece that is this brilliant movie! The first time I watched Your Name was probably the greatest movie watching experience I’ve ever had. I remember staring in absolute awe at my TV screen and being so transfixed and yelling in confusion and surprise and CRYING at least three times. And once I finished it, the awe I felt at the beauty I just watched really was unexplainable. And instead of watching another movie that night, I watched Your Name a second time... immediately after finishing it the first. It was just that beautiful. And it still is upon every rewatch! Hearing all this praise about anime as a medium as well makes me want to dive back into my long “To Watch” list of anime shows! Better get on that! Thanks for creating this lovely video!

I completely agree with all of your points. Incredible. Welcome to team anime

This is really inspiring. I love how much passion you have

You just talking about it made me remember all of what happened in the film, and it left me teary-eyed at work. See, the thing I loved on Kimi No Nawa was everything you just mentioned coalescing together to MAKE A COMPELLING STORY AND LET YOU FEEL WHAT THE CHARACTERS WERE FEELING. All the joys, frustrations, sadness and relief that both Taki and Mitsuha felt was also something I felt watching the film. There's not much movies right now that could do that. Thank you so much for talking about this movie! Same as you, this movie changed me. It helped me get through a difficult time in my life and helped me believe in love once more.

I love how Death Note introduces so many people to anime (myself included) and this movie just comes at you full force and then your in for life

I was more emotionally invested in the characters of this movie and their relationships than I think I ever have been before. Your Name is TRULY a masterpiece

The passion in your voice is inspiring.

Browntable...this video essay gave me chills and brought tears to my eyes.. Your Name holds so much meaning to me and alot of the points you covered were stuff that ive really reflected on alot... I remember when I first watched the movie I would end up watching it again 7 more times the next week and it got better EVERY SINGLE TIME... ive watched it atleast 20 times and it hits me so good every single time... it inspires me so much and provides such a sense of wonder... bruh this video essay is your best work yet i loved every single second of this

You should watch Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. Your Name it's my favorite anime movie

Can we put a NSFW tag on this, I was almost outright crying watching this

I watched this movie for the first time this week and it kind of blew me away. I remember reading great praise when it came out, but didn't really know much else about it. It's been haunting my mind and I started consuming all analysis and reviews I could find. Stumbled upon this video and I just had to leave a message. Dude, you did an excellent job. This was insightful, eloquent, enriching and thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. It truly added to my already high appreciation for the film. Checked out the rest of your channel and you've got some great content. Your Venom video had my laughing out loud several times. Subscribed. Keep it up, man.

Beautifully written video. I like the anime you use in the slideshows too, lots of those are my favourites!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TELLING ME ABOUT THIS AMAZING FILM. I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH.

I agree with this video on a heavy level. While I watched anime beforehand I never really was touched or moved by anything. This movie was my 3rd anime movie ever and genuinely moved me and changed my life. I've watched this movie 10+ times and honestly it was an amazing experience and I wish I could watch this movie again. This is my favorite movie ever and it truly made me rethink my life because of events irl surrounding the first time I watched the movie. It's amazing how much one movie can change you're entire perspective.

This video is so underrated. Editing, pace and humor are on point! I died laughing a few times. Found my way here after just seeing Your Name for my first time last week.

Ugh, this video, and your one on A Silent Voice, talk about exactly what I love about the two movies and make me watch them again. But at the same time I don't think I'll be able to not cry this time since I just about didn't last time :p I love your work, every video is a masterpiece. Keep up the great work!! :)

This is my favorite film because it has so much lessons that we can learn from. The soundtrack is also very very very good. I always play it when I'm happy, sad, etc. It's so good it's a movie that I can watch all over again. Thank for reviewing it ^^ I'm glad you felt the warmth it gave me. Also I love your reviews. Keep it up 😊

Watching this video hit me so hard, I started crying by the five minute mark. This film is so incredible, and I recommend it to literally everyone. Why am I still crying?

This video was great! I think you got all the important points across very concisely about what makes this movie so magical and I sincerely enjoyed it.

This video could not have come out any sooner. I’m just about to start a whole segment on my podcast about the wisdom and teachings we experience through anime and how it can change or affect your own life. Dope vid man !!

Watch Stein; Gate! Best time travel anime and one of my favorites.

Watched your name and A Silent voice in the same night lol, my heart is dyinggg!!!!!!!!!

I immediately came here after watching Your Name for the first time a few days ago, as I’ve seen you mention it on Twitter a few times. It is far and away one of the best movies I’ve ever seen and an instant favorite that I cannot wait to watch again. I’m also new to anime, having only been introduced to Studio Ghibli in 2020 and starting my first show, Attack on Titan, earlier this year, to supplement my reading of the manga (also my first). I, like you, can’t believe it took me this long to give anime a try, and I can’t get enough of it. This movie in particular is a masterpiece that I know I will be thinking about every day for the rest of my life. Thanks for a great video; I’m off to watch everything you mentioned (including IRC)!

I've had this video in my watch later playlist for so long, ever since I finished Your Name (which must have been over a year now). I'm so glad to have watched it now and reexpereince the emotions I felt after watching the movie. You summed up perfectly how I felt about the movie and brought more clarity to why I love this movie so much! I can also relate to how this movie really pushed me into watching more anime and see how it can tell such a beautiful story. What a lovely video!!!

I live in a near the location of Itomori Lake in the anime "Your Name"

This movie is the reason for my interest in Anime movies these days. Also good anime dramas to watch are The Garden of Words and Wolf Children.

Awesome! Thank you so much for this! Wishing you success!

Your video on Your Name, brought me to tears. These are the videos that I subscribed to this channel for. Thank you.

*_To be honest, Cory In The House and Shrek are the only anime series that changes my life._*

As a weeb born out of the womb, watching anime since i can remember, remembering being 6 watching naruto shippuden air with my older brother, all the crying, joy, anger everything From, one weeb to another, I welcome you

Man you made me cry man, I hope the algorithm gets to show this amazing video to other people

This video has got me in my feels in all kinds of ways. The beauty of Your Name and your passion for an art form I love so much. Thank you for putting into words some of the reasons I love anime.

This was beatiful, it made me remind how i felt watching the movie. If i could recommend an anime i suggest Rurouni Kenshin: it's a shonnen and talks about redemption and how the past tries to catch you and make you confront the horrors of the life that you lived. I hope you like it. Also, the ovas are just wonderful! Regards from Chile!

I just watched my FIRST anime movie and holy wow what a start. Your Name was absolutely amazing it literally pulled my heart out of my chest idk how I stumbled upon this but I am so glad I did.

This movie has made me feel the exact same way you do, and has forever changed my life. It is so beautifully put together and animated. Completely takes my breath away and makes me cry every time.

I truly needed this video. I've been needing some sort of inspiration and motivations to work on my novel and the animes you showed deserve more love tbh. This is just a really good video.

I watched Kimi no Nawa in 2017 too. I watched it about 6 times. It's not only my favourite anime but my favourite movie(animated or not animated) of all-time. I love everything about it, the music, the visuals, the characters, the story,etc. This movie make me binch watch other anime for like a month. The song sparkle and nandemomayo, is my first japanese song that I actually listen to.

true.your name is so great it is the only movie that i can't get off my head.i downloaded the soundtrack,love the story,the characters,the twist,the visual.Your name is truly something special,this movie changed my perspective about anime,because of your name i started watching more anime......so yeah its rlly good go check out this movie,i highly recommend it

What a description, you even mentioned all my favourites, I would also like to watch the anime made by you

Your love for Anime warms my cold heart. Best of luck for your creative ventures. Hope i see your work someday on popular places.

Welp, time to rewatch this Masterpiece.

Attack on titan and Your Name have changed the way I think about a lot of things

I haven't seen such a well made video in such a long time. On second thought,I have never seen such a great video I watched this film a few months ago and thought it was great but you truly opened my eyes and gave me a perspective I never would have. Thank you so much.

I've stumbled across this a little late...but this brought back reminders why I love anime so much - thank you!!

One of my favorite anime movies is the wind rises. I love it

To be honest, the five anime films that changed me, were Your Name, Summer Wars, A Silent Voice, Akira, and of course, Spirited Away. (Side Note: Perfect Blue terrified the hell out of me)

I'm so glad you have reached 200k subs!

I didn't realize that my story could mean so much to someone. Thank you for sharing

Usually I never watch movies more than 1 time or a couple of times, except for really just a couple of movies. But this movie, this movie! I’ve watched it something like 10 times, I’ve just rewatched yesterday and I still don’t have enough. It’s amazing, my favourite without any doubt and I don’t think I will ever find something that surpasses this movie

10/10 movie... 10/10 video

I'm so glad you've discovered how amazing animē can be. In my case, it happened by means of a specific show (Madoka Magica), which led to others, and to movies, and now, a few years later, I am, like you, so surprised that I somehow had managed to overlook this medium for so long. It has some of the best ideas, and some of the best executions of good ideas, that I've ever seen.

This video is magical. I've been watching anime since 5 and I'm 31 now but I never saw it the way you saw it. Its refreshing. Damn, I envy and love your mind.

Grave of the Fireflies please!!!!!!!! More people should know about it. One of the best films ever! Ebert cried while watching it.

Anime changed my life too. As I kept growing, and my responsibilities changed, I stopped watching it, but I'll always remember the show that had the most impact on me: Tatami Galaxy.

Loved the video man

This is the most relatable video I have ever seen in my life. No kidding. I love this !

Oooooohhhhh I literally couldn't wait for this since you community tab-announced it and it's everything I was hoping for and so much more, thank you. Since there are a crap ton of weird, disturbing and gross Anime out there I, too, thought of the art form as a whole as dumb and either overly childish-dumb or way to sexualised and fetish but for every ridiculous Anime series or film there are at least two well crafted, well thought-out beautiful pieces of art and to me, your name. is the perfect example for how great Anime can be. There is much crap but so is in Live-Action and Western Animation, I'm sad that many people miss out on this because of that mindset.

Finally some gets it, I feel incredibly vindicated by this video. Your Name also changed my life. And I'll always be grateful for it, beyond words.

I just watched Your Name for the first time... I think the title you chose is fitting. I was literally about to watch it again right away but then the time occured to me and decided against it. This movie is so much and so wonderful, I'm sure you had a tough time coming up with how to describe it. It's awesome that you were able to. I'm not sure if you get notified by comments from previous videos, so if you don't see this, that's alright. But "Your Name" certainly changed my life and... and that's thanks to you. I likely never would have felt inclined to watch this film without the things you said about it. So thank you. I don't know if your goal is to influence people in some way, but you definitely do. I enjoy your content your content a lot. Though I'm not a patreon, my support is to you, thank you for making me think deeper about life and the stories within it, fictional or real. I will watch anything you create. You, like this film, give me hope. Thank you so much, for helping me see the magic in my life. :)

I love how you explain Your Name because when I was watching Your Name I felt so happy that I wanted to be in the movie and feel how it felt to live like them or have a person to change bodies with and all the animation and the music is such a Melody to me and I will never ever forget how I felt when I watched it....I also cried so much when I watched it. It was so BEAUTIFUL. I LOVE ANIME ❤️

For me, there's two anime that influenced me more than anything else, more than any other medium has: K-ON! and Koe no Katachi. K-ON! is my favourite anime because of its relatability to my own life back when I was in Highschool. The mundane fun with friends in a club, performing, going on trips together, I could relate to it all, But it was the ending that related to me most. I was the youngest of my friends so of course they all had to graduate at one point, and I felt that same amount of sadness during our final school performance and that same feeling of "I wish they could stay behind longer." Yet even more relatable to me was Koe no Katachi. It is my favourite film, period. It feels more personal to me than anything I've ever experienced before, to the point where it felt like a documentation of my own life in a way. I have experienced the same events as making mistakes at one point in my life and suddenly being treated as a bully by people who never had an issue with the matter before; having friends all suddenly turn their backs on me and distance themselves from me; coming to hating myself and not being able to forgive myself because of this event; planning to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge but then ultimately not doing so. Though I still struggle with a lot of these mental issues to this day, the film felt like the only thing in existence that truly understands how I feel, even more do than my friends. It's beautiful in its execution and objectively a masterpiece of a film, but what mattered the most to me was what it meant to me. Naoko Yamada captured not just the events of these two stories well, but especially the emotions it brought along in such an authentic way. These emotions correlated so strongly with how I once felt that I was able to enter back into the times when I felt these same feelings once again. These two anime feel less so like just another piece of media I had consumed, and more so like a piece of me put to screen by someone I had never even met.

Thank you. I just watched this movie and It’s the best movie I’ve ever seen.

Gotta say, thank you. The disclaimer in the beginning made me finally watch it, and it was so fucking good, great video lifting this movie, and again thank you

Okay, so I watched Your Name yesterday and then this video. Very good timing btw. My friend has been getting me into anime and I repeatedly scold myself for neglecting this amazing medium because I've been missing out on some AMAZING cinema. Kimi no Na Wa literally changed my life. I feel so, I don't even know how to describe it after watching it. But it's amazing and it inspires me to create some animation of my own. Loved the video essay, can't wait to watch your anime. :)

I've just gotten into anime movies, and watched Spirited Away, A Silent Voice, and Your Name, as they seemed to be the most acclaimed. I thought they were all great, but Your Name was definitely my favorite. I wouldn't put them in my all time favorites list, but I loved all of them and eager to watch more. Turned out anime movies are just as great as anime shows lol

The way that 'Kimi no Nawa' changed my life is that it made me depressed -_-

This is so good! 💖
