When Your Name. released, Makoto Shinkai spoke about how he was affected by the 3.11 Earthquake and how that was reflected in the film and I saw that again in Weathering With You.
Radwimps once again did the music for Weathering With You like they did for Your Name. Throughout the film, little montages are sprinkled like raindrops to the tune of their catchy musical style.
Makoto Shinkai’s (Your Name., 5 Centimeters Per Second, The Garden of Words) newest film, Weathering With You hit Japanese cinemas over the last week and our Japanese Correspondent, Daryl Harding, was there on the film’s release day to give us his review.
