A reading performance based on Makoto Shinkai’s 2007 dramatic anime film 5 Centimeters per Second is scheduled to be held at Hulic Hall Tokyo from October 21 to 25, 2020.
The 65-minute film consists of three episodes: “Oukashou (Cherry Blossom),” “Cosmonaut,” and “Byousoku 5 Centimeters (5 Centimeters per Second),” telling the three periods of the protagonist Takaki Touno’s life.
As Sinkai’s third solo work, 5 Centimeters per Second was released in Japan on March 3, 2007.
