Your Name Screenplay.Fdx 君の名は [Your Name] "Fan-made Screenplay" Original Story and Film by Makoto Shinkai Rewritten in English by Jake Gao gaojake.com [email protected] ii. I want to make it clear that I wrote this with my own time, and without permission from the original filmmakers and producers. As a screenwriting major in Los Angeles, I really wanted to read the screenplay to my favorite movie, Your Name, but I couldn't a copy of it anywhere (Japanese or English). So I came up with the bright idea to write my own! This project was super fun for me as I was able to really study the movie and its details. It also serves as fun writing practice, a way to force myself to write everyday, and something to serve up as a sample of my writing style. I hope that you all enjoy the read, and please feel free to critique me and point out any mistakes-- format, spelling, or grammatical-- as it'll help me improve my future projects! Thank you so much and keep dreaming! -Jake. Original story by Makoto Shinkai 1. EXT. ITOMORI - SKY - NIGHT We are so high sky that sunlight still peaks over the horizon, bouncing off the tops of clouds. Meteorites glow red as they fall towards Earth. Many fragments disintegrate in the atmosphere, but the largest piece dives into the clouds. The sound of wind whistles as the camera tracks the falling comet. The comet bursts through the cloud cover, revealing a darkened prefecture surrounding a large lake. We watch as the comet descends onto Itomori. CUT TO BLACK. OVER BLACK. ALL DIALOGUE IS SPOKEN IN JAPANESE. MITSUHA (V.O.) Every now and then, when I wake up... CUT TO: EXT/INT. TOKYO - DAY A wide, areal view of congested apartments, skyscrapers, and subways. MITSUHA (V.O.) I find myself crying. INT. TAKI’S ROOM - CONTINUOUS A neat, minimalist bedroom with schoolbooks and a desk. TAKI TACHIBANA (22), quick tempered but good hearted, sits up from his bed. He stares at his empty palm. TAKI (V.O.) I can never recall the dream I just had, but... Rewritten by Jake Gao Original story by Makoto Shinkai 2. INT. MITSUHA'S ROOM - CONTINUOUS A girl’s bedroom, small and compact. MITSUHA MIYAMIZU (25), a modest and soft-spoken, with long black hair, sits on the edge of her bed, staring at her empty palm. MITSUHA (V.O.) But... the sensation that I’ve lost something... lingers for a long time. Mitsuha ties her hair with braided cord. EXT. TOKYO - LATER Tracking Mitsuha’s feet as she walks along a busy sidewalk. People, subways, and cars move back and forth creating an organized mess in this concrete jungle. INT. SUBWAY - MOMENTS LATER Taki looks out the window at the cityscape flying past. TAKI (V.O.) I’m always searching for something... for someone. INT. SUBWAY - SAME TIME Mitsuha looks out the window at the same view, her hand pressed on the glass. MITSUHA (V.O.) This feeling possesses me, I think, from that day... EXT. TOKYO - NIGHT - FLASHBACK The comet flies high, its teal and pink tail illuminates the night sky. Taki (14) gazes from his balcony. TAKI (V.O.) That day when the stars fell. It was almost as if... EXT. ITOMORI - NIGHT - FLASHBACK Mitsuha (17) gazes at the falling comet in an open field. The expansive sky stretches over her. Rewritten by Jake Gao Original story by Makoto Shinkai 3. MITSUHA (V.O.) ...as if it were a scene from a dream. Nothing more, nothing less-- TAKI (V.O.) MITSUHA (V.O.) --than a beautiful view. --than a beautiful view. SUPER: Your Name MUSIC CUE: “Dream Lantern” by RADWIMPS. CUT TO BLACK. OVER BLACK. Titles stay on the screen for a moment longer. Beat. MONTAGE WITH OPENING CREDITS. ...Taki and Mitsuha find each other in a crowd of faceless people. ...Taki (14) and Mitsuha (17) stand back to back under a crescent moon. Suddenly-- still in the same position-- the two change. Taki, now 17, in his school uniform, stands taller than Mitsuha, still 17, who has short hair. Mitsuha’s braided cord floats around them. The two walk away from each other, causing the ribbon to disappear. ...Taki with Mitsuha’s braided cord around his wrist, sprints through the faceless crowd. ..Timelapse of Tokyo and Taki walking home from school. QUICK CUTS. --Mitsuha sulks in the corner of her family shrine. She looks at her palm sadly. --Mitsuha, wearing a shrine maiden uniform, performs a ritual dance on a wooden platform. --The comet shines brightly in the night sky. --Tokyo cityscape. --Itomori landscape. --Taki and Mitsuha face away from each other, looking at the sky. Rewritten by Jake Gao Original story by Makoto Shinkai 4. ...Taki and Mitsuha back to back again, but this time we seem them slowly grow older. Taki starts at 14 and ends at 22. Mitsuha starts at 17 and ends at 25. Their smiles fade as they grow older. ..Taki (17) stands on his Tokyo balcony. He stares past the horizon. The camera takes his POV and zooms across Japan to see Mitsuha (17), looking out the window of her room in Itomori. ...Taki and Mitsuha both stretch their hands out towards a large cloud in their respective cities. A moment passes and the two pull their hands back, smiling. They walk in opposite directions. END MONTAGE. END MUSIC CUE. CUT TO BLACK. OVER BLACK. A cellphone alarm rings. FADE IN: INT. MITSUHA’S HOUSE - BEDROOM - DAY Warm sunlight shines through the windows. A futon mattress lays on the floor. There are many different timelines to this story, however the main one will be when Taki and Mitsuha are both 17. The alarm continues to ring as Mitsuha (17) sleeps on the mattress. MITSUHA (V.O.) Taki... Taki... Don’t you remember me? CUT TO: INT. SUBWAY - DAY - DREAMLIKE Mitsuha caught in a mass of people leaving the car, tosses a braided cord, her handmade braided cord used to tie her hair, towards Taki, still in the car. Rewritten by Jake Gao Original story by Makoto Shinkai 5. MITSUHA My name is... Mitsuha! CUT BACK TO: BEDROOM Mitsuha (Taki) jolts up, panting. She takes a look around the room, confused. A neatly organized, Japanese-style room with sliding doors. She looks down at her breasts, and slowly gropes them. Taki is in Mitsuha’s body. Mitsuha, completely captivated by the feeling, doesn’t notice when the bedroom door slides open. YOTSUHA MIYAMIZU (9), a sassy young girl with pigtails, stands awkwardly watching Mitsuha-- her older sister-- touch her breasts. YOTSUHA Mitsuha, what are you doing? MITSUHA (to herself) They feel so real. Beat. Mitsuha turns towards Yotsuha, startled. MITSUHA (CONT'D) (points to herself.) What? Mitsuha? YOTSUHA Are you half-asleep? Breakfast! Hurry up! Yotsuha slams the door. Mitsuha trudges towards the full-body mirror and takes her pajamas off. Beat. Mitsuha sees her naked body. MITSUHA Huh? Rewritten by Jake Gao Original story by Makoto Shinkai 6. Mitsuha sees her naked body. MITSUHA (CONT'D) Huh?!?! DINING ROOM - THE NEXT DAY A traditional Japanese home. Open large doors that allow sunlight to shine through, and a low dining table with no chairs. HITOHA MIYAMIZU (82), a wise and spiritual grandmother, kneels at the dining table in a YUKATA (a casual summer kimono). Yotsuha brings a few bowls of soup to the table. YOTSUHA Grandma, do you want last night's leftovers? HITOHA No thank you, you can have them. Mitsuha jogs in, dressed in her school uniform. YOTSUHA Mitsuha, you’re late! MITSUHA I’ll make breakfast tomorrow. Mitsuha serves herself some rice, familiar with the space and humming to herself. Hitoha and Yotsuha watch her intently. Mitsuha piles rice into her bowl. MITSUHA (CONT'D) (mumbles to herself) Is this too much? Oh well. HITOHA You’re normal today. YOTSUHA (giggles) Yea, you were crazy yesterday. MITSUHA What are you talking about? A bell chimes through a radio in the house and a woman’s voice comes through. Rewritten by Jake Gao Original story by Makoto Shinkai 7. The voice rings through the entire town and we see tall speakers posted all over Itomori, carrying the same signal. This is how the Town Hall communicates with the locals. ANNOUNCER WOMAN (V.O.) Good morning, everyone. The announcer pauses between phrases to let the echo dissipate. ANNOUNCER WOMAN (V.O.) This is an announcement from Itomori Town Hall... regarding the mayoral election... to be held on the 20th next month, the election committee-- Hitoha unplugs the radio from the wall, angry. Mitsuha turns on the TV to a news channel. A female anchor speaks with a picture of the COMET beside her. A bar of text below her reads, “Comet Tiamat to pass by in a month: Visible to the naked eye”. NEWS ANCHOR (V.O.) A comet with an orbital period of 1200 years will pass by in a month. The comet will be visible to the naked eye for several days... The anchor’s voice fades to the background as Yotsuha speaks to Hitoha.

  • Clare Domenico Olsen T/RS 25 May 2020 Spirited Away Anime Has Been an Important Part of Many People's Culture. from Shows
    Clare Domenico Olsen T/RS 25 May 2020 Spirited Away Anime has been an important part of many people’s culture. From shows like Pokemon and Naruto, to movies like Your Name and A Silent Voice. Personally, I do not watch a lot of anime in my time, but one of my favorite movies of all time is called Spirited Away, which is by the world famous director, Hayao Miyazaki, who owns the company Studio Ghibli. If i were to compare Miyazaki to somebody else, I would compare him to Walt Disney, since if you think about it, with his ratings and reviews, Miyazaki is basically the Walt Disney of Japan. His movies are filled with beautiful sceneries, music scores that will give you chills, and a story that will impact the viewer in every way, shape, and form. Every single one of the movies that this company brings out to the public is loved and cherished by many. Some, like the movie Totoro and Ponyo, are funny and light-hearted. Other movies by Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli, like Princess Mononoke and Howl’s Moving Castle, are more serious, and are better watched by an older audience so they can understand the main point and plot of the movie. One of my favorite movies by this company and director is called Spirited Away. Spirited Away was the first ever Studio Ghibli film I watched when I was a kid, and after watching it, I was hooked. The colors, sounds, and scenery were something at which I have never seen before in my life, and it drew me into the story and message it tries to obtain the viewer to have.

  • Tesi Di Laurea
    Corso di Laurea magistrale in LINGUE E ISTITUZIONI ECONOMICHE E GIURIDICHE DELL’ASIA E DELL’AFRICA MEDITERRANEA [LM4-12] Tesi di Laurea L’arte del silenzio Il simbolismo nel cinema di Shinkai Makoto Relatore Ch. Prof.ssa Roberta Maria Novielli Correlatore Ch. Prof. Davide Giurlando Laureando Carlotta Noè Matricola 838622 Anno Accademico 2016 / 2017 要旨要旨要旨 この論文の目的は新海誠というアニメーターの映画的手法を検討する ことである。近年日本のアニメーション業界に出現した新海誠は、写実的な スタイルで風景肖像を描くことと流麗なアニメーションを創作することと憂 鬱な物語で有名である。特に、この検討は彼の作品の中にある自分自身の人 生、愛情、人間関係の見方を伝えるための記号型言語に集中するつもりであ る。 第一章には新海誠の伝記、フィルモグラフィとその背景にある経験に 焦点を当たっている。 第二章は監督の映画のテーマに着目する。なかでも人は互いに感情を 言い表せないこと、離れていること、そして愛のことが一番大切である。確 かに、彼の映画の物語は愛情を中心に回るにもかかわらず、結局ハッピーエ ンドの映画ではない。換言すれば、新海誠の見方によると、愛は勝つはずで はない。新海誠は別の日本のアニメーターや作家から着想を得ている。その ため、次はそれに関係があるテクニックとスタイルを検討するつもりである。 第三章には新海誠の作品の分析を通して視覚言語と記号型言語が発表 される。一般的な象徴以外に、伝統、神話というふうに、日本文化につなが る具体的なシンボルがある。一方、西洋文化に触れる言及もある。例えば、 音楽や学術研究に言及する。 こうして、新海誠は異なる文化を背景を問わず観客の皆に同じような感情を 感じさせることができる。 最後に、後付けが二つある。第一に、新海誠が演出したテレビコマー シャルとプロモーションビデオが分析する。第二に、新海誠と宮崎駿という アニメーターを比較する。新海誠の芸術様式は日本のアニメーションを革新 したから、“新宮崎”とよく呼ばれている。にもかかわらず、この呼び名を 離れる芸術様式の分野にも、筋の分野にも様々な差がある。特に、宮崎駿の アニメーションに似ている新海誠の「星を追うこども」という映画を検討す る。 1 L’ARTE DEL SILENZIO Il simbolismo nel cinema di Shinkai Makoto 要旨要旨要旨 …………………………………………………………………………………………………………….Pg.1 INTRODUZIONE …………………………………………………………………………………………..Pg.4 CAPITOLO PRIMO: Shinkai Makoto……………………………………………………………………………………………Pg.6 1.1 Shinkai Makoto, animatore per caso 1.2 Filmografia, sinossi e riconoscimenti CAPITOLO SECONDO : L’arte di Shinkai Makoto……………………………………………………………………………..Pg.18

Among these, Mononokehime ( Princess Mononoke , 1997) and the period leading up to it from the early 1990s, as I argue in this chapter, had a great impact on the rest of Miyazaki’s career. In the fi rst section of this chapter, I discuss how Miyazaki grew sceptical about the style of his fi lmmaking as a result of cataclysmic changes in the political and social situation both in and outside Japan; in essence, he questioned his production of entertainment fi lms featuring adventures with (pseudo- )European settings, and began to look for something more ‘substantial’. Th e result was a grave and complex story about civilization set in medieval Japan, which was based on aca- demic discourses on Japanese history, culture and identity.

  • Being Someplace Else: the Theological Virtues in the Anime of Makoto Shinkai
    religions Article Being Someplace Else: The Theological Virtues in the Anime of Makoto Shinkai Matthew John Paul Tan School of Philosophy & Theology, University of Notre Dame Australia, Sydney 2008, Australia; [email protected] Received: 28 January 2020; Accepted: 27 February 2020; Published: 2 March 2020 Abstract: This work explores the ways in which the anime of Makoto Shinkai cinematically portrays the theological virtues of faith, hope and love. The article will explore each virtue individually, with specific reference to the work of Josef Pieper and Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. In addition, it will juxtapose their explorations of these virtues with samples of Shinkai’s corpus of films. It will assert that the consistency of Shinkai’s work reveals several important parallels with the theological virtues. Faith is the encounter between one and another that reveals one’s nature. Hope is revealed by the distance between one and another, and is realised in traversing that distance to achieve an ecstatic reunion. Love, as the erotic attraction between one and another, is the driver that also sustains the journey and closes the distance. In spite of the similarities, important differences between the cinematic and theological will be highlighted. Keywords: anime; virtue; Pieper; Benedict; distance; faith; hope; love 1. Introduction In this work, I focus on the work of the anime director, Makoto Shinkai, who is part of a wave of anime directors rising to prominence after the mainstream success of Hayao Miyazaki. I chose Shinkai for a number of reasons, the first is that with Miyazaki ostensibly going into retirement, Shinkai is now being billed as one of the front-runners for the directors most likely to fill the void in anime that Miyazaki left behind.
