I was very lucky because I recently watch Koe no Katachi and binge watch every one of your characters analysis videos a mouth ago, so and I didn't have to wait one year to you make a video about another one. And BY THE LOVE OF GOD continue to do characters analysis videos, I'm a big fan of then.

This video explains why i liked and felt sorry for Nagatsuka. A lot of anyisocial people can relate to his character. He(like most of the characters)is a realistic representation of many young people who watch anime. He is probably the best character in the anime Edit: Yuzuru is also a candidate for best character in the anime

"Everyone learns the message of friendship in some way." Except for Miki, she's a lost cause

I finished the manga few weeks ago , the one line that made me feel sad for nagatsuka was when Kawaii said"DON'T TOUCH ME YOU DISGUSTING BLOB(or something like that) Although he was only trying to calm her down. And I still feel bad for nagatsuka😔😔

I would love to see an Ishida or Shouko analysis video

Best character.

with a personality like tomohiro. in the real world no matter how u look like ur gonna be loved by legit everyone aa

I really love this character to my core, he seems like one of those friends who always care and would be your friend forever.

We all need a Nagatsuka in our life once in a while. 😢

I think that just his name in itself alludes to nagatsukas nature, just the sound in tomo in tomohiro sounds like the same tomo in tomodachi (meaning friend) and the hiro sounds well, like hero. Hero friend. Kinda alludes to his character I think

he is adorable!!!

Nagatsuka is like how elementary and middle school kids befriend each other. They immediately and very easily, without hesitation, make friends with each other over quick first impressions. I've met people who have idolized me before, and when they learn more about me, they were very quick to leave me and just flat out hate me. I also used to be a little like Nagatsuka, where I'd instantly call anyone who was the slightest bit kind to me, I'd put all my trust in them and even overshare things I shouldn't. However, after a lot of rejection, I've slowly become more like Ishida, isolated and scared to look at others. Nagatsuka represents childhood and innocence, Ishida represents adolescence and mistrust.

Holy carp a new silent voice video! This is my favorite anime movie! It is too relatable and real for me. I don't cry much at all. I try at times but it's hard. This movie made me cry 20 minutes in. Looking forward to seeing the entirety of this video. Thank you for these~

i wish the author would write some more books about this😭it’s sound good

We all want friend like nagatsuka

He acts in a self righteous way , and kinda forceful in nature ( which is very childish, tbh), but his intentions are never bad and he never harms others . He is a realistic person, with his strengths and flaws . He is very lovable too .

He is a cool friend to have.

a look into the parents might be interesting but that might be fairly brief besides that looking forward to any future vids esp for either one of the main duo

I love the movie adaption of A Silent Voice, however it’s a sad reality that the film had to cut out really awesome pieces of character development from the side cast in order to tell Nishimimiya and Ishada’s stories with any consistency. Consistency within an anime movie format of two-3 and a half hours versus over fifty volumes of a manga series. I understand that’s an unfortunate reality for any adaption, however nothing upsets me more in media. Than when fiction women’s arch’s/development are erased entirely or sidelined in favor of male characters screen-time. So Ueno, Kiawi, and Sahara’s arch’s and character moments were taken out to make them nothing more than one-note side characters that were meant to pop up in a few scenes than never speak again. Again that’s a reality of any adaptation however I stress how they specifically seem to make out Ueno and Kiwai as pure evil. Especially when they added in that scene during elementary school were Kiwai pretends to sing to look better in front of everyone else by helping Nishimiya. When they never bring up Ueno’s self-hatred and reasons for disliking Nishimiya, I dunno. I feel like they could’ve tried to do better with those.

Having grown up in Japan, I am no stranger to Anime and Manga, but lived abroad for the past three decades with little to no cultural “update”, it only recently found Koe-no-Katachi [anime] via Netflix. Watching your videos has made me wanting to get hold of the original Manga or novelised version, and would probably be a privilege for me to able to do so in Japanese. Admittedly, I am no youth, but I thank you all the same for your videos to raise curiosity level.

He looks like Steven Universe

He is legit like the first friend of shoya in higj school He is the best character

i would like to have a friend just like him

If there's a KnK character I'd love for you to analyze is Yaeko Nishimiya, Shouko and Yuzuru's mother. The movie never truly showed what made her into this cold person or how it affected the way she believes that essentially throwing her daughters off the nest will toughen them up and learn to fly on their own at such a young age, when in fact it doesn't help them all that much.

This was so beautifully made

Great video, really excited for the video on ishida

AAAAA Thank you so much! I been waiting for this Tomohiro Nagatsuka's Analysis! Keep up your great work!

Hey, great video! I don't want to assume, but I can't help but hope that leaving that comment on one of your other character analysis videos provided some small inspiration to jump back into Koe no Katachi. I've got to say, I really love all of your Koe no Katachi content! That movie (and manga, after I read it) were so incredibly touching for me. This analysis was really eye opening. I had never thought that deeply about Nagatsuka, but you delved into his character and explored it to its full extent. He really was a wonderful way to communicate the meaning of friendship (which is just one of the many central themes to this story). I hope you make more on Koe no Katachi, they're always really insightful and helpful. Seeing the main characters would be great! But if not, I've been curious about getting into other anime (and by extension your content on the anime). Which leads me to a question for you (or anyone reading this): as an person who has not seen much anime but loved Koe no Katachi, where would you recommend I go from here? In any case, keep up the good work! Fantastic video

You mad lad, I finish this whole video to the end because it have all details I want without any of the fluff or filler. Keep up the good work.

honestly cant wait for the shouko and shoya character analysis videos, these are amazing and really interesting, keep it up man! Koe no Katachi deserves to be talked about forever and these videos certainly help!

OMG THIS IS THE FIRST VIDEO IVE WATCHED AND I FREAKING LOVE IT, THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO. AND IM REALLY REALLY WONDERING WHY YOU DON"T HAVE MORE SUBSSSS

I’m waiting for that Shoko and Shoya vid ok 😂 it better happen I already understood all the characters really well but your pointing out some things that I didn’t notice

Man it's been forever since I saw you make a Shape of Voice video on the characters, good to see you going back in your roots. Lately it seems a lot of people talking about this movie again even though it's been like 3 years after the movie released (and like 5 years since the original manga ended), but also because of the fire that happened to KyoAni. Thoughts and prayers to the victims and their family & friends.

Omg dude this was a huge in depth video. Spectacular job!!! I'd love to see a video on shoyas mom.

Thank you for your videos! I just watched Koe no Katachi this weekend for the first time, and it was amazing! Your videos have convinced me to read the manga. It's been a pleasure watching your character analyses and I can't wait for your Ishida and Nishimiya videos!

You really did a great analysis for nagatsuka, which quite made me enjoy his character growth even more

Hey man, starting this new year with finding your series on a silent voice along with a couple other KZfaqrs talk about it. It’s just a wonderful thing not only anime, but the desire to grow and change comes across to all the people looking for more and more on a piece of art not just like this but others that mean so much to them. Happy new year everyone never stop trying to change and never stop loving yourself and caring even if it hurts. Keep on walking. You can do it

Best anime ever..A silent voice And thanks for making this video...😁😁

Aside from your great analysis that helps me understand all the plot without reading the manga, I also love that you have just music I love

Wow, it's been so long since I last saw your character analysis videos A Silent Voice/Koe no Katachi, I guess you aren't done with it yet, lol. Anyway I listen to your whole video, and well not only you got your analysis of Nagatsuka's characters to a tee, but you also gotten better realizing core themes of redemption and the meaning of friendship : even if you have friend(s) who were mean or toxic to you at some point, or you being mean to your friends but realize overtime the friends accept who you are & you accept them vice versa, yes they/u did some bad but there are some good amomgst all of you and become better with each other in need. That's what makes this series so endearing and why I love all or just love the core supporting cast of characters besides the mains (Shouko & Shouya) as they are uniquely flawed in their own way but they are not necessarily evil people. Also that quote by Ishida at 28:59 is actually one of my favorite quotes from this series. Got to give Yoshitoki Ooima credit where it is due, it is no easy feat to craft a story based on bullying, Disability, redemption, self-worth, and friendship. To pull it off so well, her name is like a household name almost. So yeah great video.

I love your Silent Voice analysis vids and I can’t wait for you to shed some perspective on the two Shos! Actually I can wait. As long as it takes lol subbed for this

Hey I’m early, I really love these videos

i just watched A Silent Voice the other days your analysis are really good, i learned alot more about the characters in stuff i didnt notice in the movie and left out from the manga. a shame this one didnt get as much attention as the other ones i guess the hype died down now

Make more plz love this vids

I just came back to Koe no Katachi 2 weeks ago, watched your whole videos about this and boom. You upload something abot this, amazing

I LOVE your analysis videos on Koe No Katachi! Keep up the great work ^^

I love how these videos have matured! In Miki's it was mostly about her being a bad person but here you've acknowledged that you can accept the characters' faults. I think that's really cool

I wish i have a friend like him. I just need someone who truly understands me. Even just once in a lifetime.

I love this

Hey bro, watched Koe no Katachi recently a little late compared to others and loved it. I could relate to the movie in more than one way, have friends who are deaf and it allowed me to understand Shouko's behaviour and pain. I hope you can find sometime to finish analizing Her and Shouya even though it has been several years now.

The movie didn't really show all these emotions the manga did, thanks for the video, now I better understand why the character acts the way he did

Love your analysis videos thanks for making them. I can't wait to see more of them. Keep up the great work.

Still dying for a video on Ishida. 😁

I can't wait for the Shoya vid. I was in her spot, well sort of. I wasn't disabled, just a target. I connected with Shoya because she did nothing wrong, but she was bullied anyway. I felt the same thing and even attempted suicide. Well anyway, I enjoyed the video and I am very excited for the next analysis

Great video Jordan! I need to read the manga I think. Loved the movie, even tho it made me die inside lol

please do a video on Ishida and Shouko ❤

do an analysis about Shouya's sister! HAHAHA Amazing video!

Please read this. I love you so much man... you helped me understand so much

We still wait for the two most important characters of them all 😉

This was good. But I wouldn't really say friendship is accepting someone for who they are. Friendship is actually about building each other up, pointing out the flaws and becoming a better person. A "friend" who acknowledges your flaws, and doesn't do anything about them, much less point them out, is not really a friend. Those are the people who tend to not stick around much, specially when things go sideways (due to said flaws). True enough, the MC is the only who has the balls to do this (with a few exceptions). It is only by naming the problem and tackling it head on, that one can move forward. In fact, most of the issues that happened in the story can be traced back to someone being an asshole, and his/her "friends" not doing anything about it. Even trying to passively or "slowly but surely" change someone's mind does not work, Shoko's mother and sister tried, didn't work. Shoya's teacher tried, did not work. My only issue with the story is that it treats being upset at someone's flaws as a bad thing. Shoya constantly apologies for stating the obvious, and even goes as far as treating acts of violence meekly. Don't get me wrong, I can understand why he's like that given his past and how he doesn't want to hurt anyone else. But for the rest of the characters, if they truly regard each other as friends, they wouldn't act the way they did. In the end, outside of the nishimiya family, the only true friend Shoya had (has?) was Nagatsuka.

Saw it three days ago 💗

Ami I the only who thought Nagatsuka was Hirose( Ishida and Kazuki's partner) but grown up.

Question, are you still planning on making a Shouko or shouya analysis eventually or have plans changed with that? I'm aware they are likely the longest ones to actually do this for, i just need to know because you did such a wonderful job with these. I saw the film of the series at a time where I desperately needed to be pushed to get help and i saw it at the right time, if I hadn't a few weeks later... i wouldn't of been here anymore, this was a year and a half ago, and I am in a much better place now, its my favorite film and manga because of this. its wonderful how art can have such a important effect on people.

Man nagatsuka is the HOMIE!

I still want a friend like Nagatsuka

Nagatsuka is my favorite character because he's an overweight person who's essential to the movie's story to help Shouya and Shouko along the way to accepting themselves and being welcomed by others. Also, it's a coincidence that he's voiced by Kensho Ono who also voices Daniel Radcliffe's voice as Harry Potter in the Japanese dub and he's already married to one of our favorite VA, Kana Hanazawa since 2020!

He is the true friend

Please can you do a charcter anaylisis on the teacher

Do ishida and nishimiya, if you see this please

Nagatsuka would be a great Jo-Bro

Hiii...I know it's a bit late but can you make character analysis of Shoya and Shoko too...As well as their mothers😊😊

Are you still gonna do the analysis for Shoko, or Ishida if so, I’ll get the notification so I know that it’s here

Anyone know which chapter that page at 14:54 is from? I don't remember seeing it

*me just listening to the Your Lie in April music*

*Ya’ll hear the Fairy Tail piano in the back, I knew I wasn’t trippin.*

Nishimiya analysis when

Did you make this film? If you did I really like it! Your the best!

Spike Spiegel's grandad

Ohh i know what channel is this

I'm a man of culture. I see a content about bullying and suicide, I click and like! EDIT: Wait, nobody actually died? I demand a refund!

He's clingy

This a character will have no girl will have a crush on,

the better broccoli

Ihope they put that nishimiya wil say in sighn language i love you ishida and ueno will say i love you ishida haha

What is the music?

keep in mind, Tomohiro (Mineta) is voiced by Giorno.

Is it me or does the guy on the right look like shimada? 3:31

He was way more likeable in the anime. But in the manga, he was self centered and wanted Shoya all to himself.

He looks like mineta-

I would ship Tomohiro Nagatsuka with Yuzuru Nishimiya

En español por favor

fairy tail soundtrack

Thats a sad anime

10:11 Song name?

this one is so long

Is it weird that I ship him with Yuzuru?

Nao x Ishida

Am I the only who thinks Nagatsuka looks like Steven Universe? No? Just me? Ok...

I hate kiminonawa
