Publisher's Review
Director Makoto Shinkai's first novel, which displays his delicate handwriting.
With a narrative that seems to be drawing a picture and a calm expression of emotion,
It contains his thoughts on love, fate, and life.
Director Makoto Shinkai, who has emerged as a next-generation master with the theatrical animation "Your Name."
He is famous for consistently adapting his animations into novels, starting with 5 Centimeters Per Second.
This work is the first to reveal the colors of his love, and his complete emotions are honestly expressed.
When you look at director Makoto Shinkai's works, the main characters often feature men whose relationships with the opposite sex are immature.
Taki, the male protagonist of "Your Name," also shows such appearances from time to time.
Another characteristic of his work is that he captures the emotions of the characters in the description of the scenery and constructs the story based on reality, which is his strength that appeals to a wide range of readers.
You can see this in 『5 Centimeters Per Second』, which realistically embodies the popular saying that "first loves never come true."
It consists of three short stories, 『Cherry Blossom Story』, 『Cosmonaut』, and 『5 Centimeters Per Second』, and depicts the wandering of love and the soul centered around the growth of the male protagonist, Takaki.
Director Makoto Shinkai's work, which explores the love, fate, and life of men and women, is reminiscent of a watercolor painting.
Putting emotions into a novel that doesn't require images!
What can be expressed in images and what can be expressed in sentences are different.
While video (and music) are often easier to express, there are emotions that don't necessarily require video.
Writing this book was a stimulating experience that made me think about such things.
I think I'll continue to make videos, and if that's not enough, I'll write sentences, or do the opposite, making videos that sound like sentences.
