Kimono Namae Wa

  Set aside the astonishing movie scenes, the storyline is great with   the maverisk combination of body switching and alternate timelines. Besides, another merit is the way it told the story.Unlike some other movies where the plot is like a straight line developing from a beginning point right to the end. In KNW, it starts from a point in the later half of the storyline and then goes back to the beginning from which the story develops to the end. The hints of the main characters(MC)'life after the major events( after the comet striking and change of the fate of the villiage) at the beginning keep the  audience in suspense until the movie unravels the truth step by step, which makes the watching exciting
  Of the course, the theme of the movie is most awesome. It is a story about love. However what makes it distinguishing from other love stories is that it depicted a kind of love that  is both ordinary and extraordinary. It is ordinary because it is what everyone  can be related to or wish to have,that is, the experience of meeting the right and irreplaceable person, the only one you wish to spend the whole life with. The MCs' intense and inexplicable feeling of the need to search for somebody of whom they don't even know the name  echoes the wish and beliefs hidden in everyone's mind. The wish and beliefs that you will find your destined one in the future. Like MCs kept wondering "kimi no namae wa" in the movie, some times in our teens,we wonder who our partners will be. Like MCs in the movie, our aspiration and beliefs are also inexplicable and irrational, but many still have them more or less.
At the meantime, the love is extraordinarily amazing. It's the love between people living in different timelines which is impossible in daily life. Moreover, it's because of this love that a villiage was saved from a comet. Therefore,the movie is able to make audience feel how beautiful and powerful love can be by connecting people from different time zones and  changing the history of a village. This is what makes the movie touching and exciting!
