Your Name. [Blu-ray]

I saw Your Name mentioned in a few articles on the Net. I did not know the works of Makoto Shinkai but I added it to my Amazon list. A sale happened so I bought it. I must say I love this film. People who like Studio Ghibli will see it's influences in this film. The great art work, music and characters. Miyazaki always had a rule that you will never see his female characters run from problems. Such is the case here. The story is about Misuha and Taki. She lives in the country and he lives in Tokyo. A cosmic event happens and they find they are switching bodies as they sleep. What is really good about this story is how they go about figuring out what happened. Both think it's some kind of vivid dream but things start pointing out something is amiss. Mitsuha finds a note asking who she is. Taki finds events on his phone. The friends simply think they are acting strange or having an off day and just roll with it. Taki feels the need to play with her breasts and is always interrupted by Mitsuha's little sister. She simply stares and makes comments "you sure like your booobies!" with that little girl disgusted voice. Mitsuha wakes and finds things are just not right. She reaches down between her legs and screams! Slightly adult humor but done in the right way. You really take a liking to these two as they slowly develop by improving each others lives. She organizes him and sets up dates. He makes her more aggressive with dealing with situations and people. Taking from that old line; they complete each other. There is well crafted humor all through the film. They make rules such as no touching and no looking! They get annoyed with each other and write insults on each others faces. I would like to write more about it but that would be bigger spoilers. So I will just say eventually Taki does go on an adventure to find Mitsuha and there is an unexpected surprise. This was a fun movie that will stir emotions as the story goes on. I have watched it twice and found it still puts me in a good mood and wishing there was more story with the two. I wish there would be a sequel but sometimes it's best to not do that. If you liked the scenery in this film; make sure you watch the extras and you will see places used in this film (others as well) and you will be amazed how close the drawings were to the real life places. I will again mention the music. As with Ghibli, the music sets the mood for the scenes which you will see. All in all, I will say this is one of my favorites.

I saw the trailer for this movie and had heard how amazing it had done in Japan. I had almost bought the version of this which is only spoken in Japanese with English subtitles, and switched when I found this was the correct version I was looking for (English language makes these movies easier to enjoy!). I had never heard of the director before, and honestly I still can't remember his name (I could look it up, but chances are most of you are as familiar with the name as I am. I've heard his movies are great, but this is the first I have gotten. The movie itself is incredibly fun! There are a couple gags included that you would honestly expect to happen when a teenage boy and girl switch bodies, which makes for some hilarious moments! But it also had several surprises in store that you will never see coming! I am a little torn up about the ending emotionally. I think they could have extended it just a little bit longer and had it pull the emotional strings even more (but in a good way!). Nonetheless, the ending was good, and the movie is highly enjoyable! The music and the backgrounds are incredibly fun and detailed, respectively. I'm going to end up buying the soundtrack for this movie, which I will only do for movies whose music I really enjoy. The backgrounds, according to one of the special features, are based on real-life locations in Japan (at least, the Tokyo locations are). It definitely feels like modern Japan, or at least how I think of it. Overall, you are definitely missing out if you don't watch this movie, especially if you are a fan of animated movies! This movie's story, animation quality, music production and actors/actresses rivals any similar movie you can see in the United States, if not absolutely blowing them away!

Such a beautiful movie! Also, Blue Ray quality is amazing!

Your Name came out while I was finishing graduate school. I had a partner at that time who was notorious for talking during movies or playing on her cellphone. When this movie began I did my usual "ignore the eccentricities" and watch the film, but as time went on I noticed no movement and a lot of silence from my peripherals. When I finally looked over she was covered in tears and just whispered, "This is... beautiful." That is the Makoto Shinkai effect my friends. Amazing animation, jaw-dropping scenes, excellent music choices, and a sweeping story that will have you in tears. In my opinion, one of the grandiose Japanese animation gods of this era joining Miyazaki and Satoshi Kon. Worth every penny!

I love this movie and it was so good. I remember seeing it in theaters and seeing something after it was over but my friend ruined it by walking in front of me. I will never know what it said at the end. Must of been a theater release thing only. Love the movie though it's very VERY GOOD.

Dessa går ej att kolla på i sverige på ps4 konsoller. Den är låst till region A vilket är Amerika.

Excelente película, solo me hubiera gustado que trajera el doblaje en español latino, pero fuera de eso es una película romántica y divertida.

作品自体は名作だと思っています。 北米版の仕様ですが、PS3で再生することを前提に（というか、そのためにPS3を買った） Blu-rayは問題なく再生できました。 日本語の字幕はないですが、音声を日本語にしたときの強制英語字幕も、私の環境では無かったです。 音声の切り替え（日英）、字幕ON・OFF（英語）も自由でした。 ボーナスで北米の視聴者に向けた新海監督のインタビューが収録されています。 唯一、残念なのは実際に声優がしゃべっている英語と、字幕の英語が微妙に違うことです。 追記；SONYの一般国内向けレコーダーでもBlu-ray再生できました。 パソコンでも再生できました。 これは私の推測ですが、このディスクは単なるリージョンAなのかもしれません。 参考までに、氷菓というアニメのBlu-rayは、同じリージョンAのはずですが米国・カナダの視聴制限があり、国内向けレコーダーでは再生できませんでした。 DVDはレコーダー、PS3とも、地域制限により視聴できませんでした。

Love love love this movie. I'm not young, but for some reason this one made me cried and heart melted... so much so that my family planned a trip to toyko to visit the locations. Enjoy!

(Comentario editado / He recibido mi copia) Este es el combo lanzado por Funimation, hasta el momento sólo he podido comprobar que contiene Sub/Dub en inglés. El precio de pre-venta es bastante razonable si lo comparamos con la versión importada directamente de Japón, ninguna le quita mérito a la otra, ya que el Blu-ray de Japón contiene material con el arte de la película, no obstante, soy el tipo de coleccionista que sólo le interesa la película y este combo me pareció más accesible en precio. Participar en las pre-ventas tiene el beneficio de que si por alguna razón el precio sube, Amazon MX te mantiene el precio del día en el que hiciste la compra, o bien, si el precio baja, pagarás menos. Es hasta el momento que no he podido ver el filme, recientemente la película fue proyectada en las salas, pero fueron salas selectas lejos de mi zona, así que esta es una buena oportunidad para ver el filme, ya que no comparto la idea de verlo de manera ilegal. En conclusión, Your Name Blu-Ray/DVD combo es una buena oportunidad a un precio razonable de lanzamiento, vale la inversión. (Comentario agregado) El estuche de cartón tiene un acabado aluminizado/satinado, no sé cual es el término técnico, se ve muy bien; el estuche de plástico es de buena calidad para proteger los discos. Por fin pude ver la película, podrás encontrar decenas de críticas en otros sitios; ver anime y/o películas es una cuestión de gustos, sobre la historia, es amena e interesante y a ratos emotiva, tiene pasajes que presentan tradiciones y leyendas japonesas, en éste filme Makoto Shinkai exhibe un fetiche hacia las puertas corredizas (jaja); en cuanto a la historia, aunque son dos conceptos diferentes me gustó más The Anthem of the Heart / El Himno del Corazón; no obstante Your Name tiene lo suyo. El trabajo de arte es excepcional; a mi ver no tiene la calidez de Psychic School Wars (nuevamente, conceptos diferentes) sin embargo, cada cuadro de Your Name tiene un lujo de detalle bellamente ilustrado. Recalco, todo es cuestión de gustos, no obstante siempre invito a ver anime y/o películas y hagan sus propias conclusiones. ¿Qué contiene el DVD? - Película en su idioma original en japonés y subtítulos en inglés y doblada en idioma inglés (el doblaje es bastante aceptable) - Trailers ¿Qué contiene el Blu-ray? - Película en 1080p HD 16:9 - Audio Dolby TrueHD Inglés/Japonés 5.1 / Subtítulos en inglés EXTRAS: Entrevista con Makoto Shinkai / Filmografía / Programa Especial de TV / Trailers En conclusión, Your Name es una película entretenida con un gran trabajo de arte. La entrega por parte de Amazon fue de acuerdo a lo pactado, el producto llegó en el tiempo prometido y en perfecto estado.
