The movie is still going on.

Mitsuha helped Taki and Okudera get closer.

On the day of the date, she wore her hair in braids as usual and looked at herself in the mirror for a long time.

"Taki, you're probably on a date right now."

Without warning, tears welled up in my eyes.

She stood there, pausing to wipe the tears from her face, not understanding why she was crying.

the other side.

"Taki-kun,"

Okudera smiled and said, "You used to...like me, didn't you? I could feel it."

She paused, her gaze softening. "But now, it seems there's someone else you care about more, isn't there?"

Taki's face flushed instantly, and he frantically tried to deny it.

"N-No, that's not it, Okudera-senpai, I..."

Seeing his flustered appearance, Okudera chuckled and shook his head.

Cherish the person in your heart.

She patted Taki on the shoulder, turned and left gracefully, leaving Taki with a meaningful silhouette.

Taki stood there, the evening breeze caressing his burning cheeks.

He instinctively covered his chest.

Okudera-senpai was right. He didn't know when it started, but the girl who swapped bodies with him—Mitsuha Miyamizu—had been involved.

It has firmly occupied the most important place in his heart.

He took out his phone, opened the familiar notepad, and the latest message was still a comment from Mitsuha from a few days ago:

[You might just see a comet after your date!]

He was baffled and didn't understand what Mitsuha was talking about.

I wanted to call her, but I couldn't get through.

"Never mind, I'll ask her next time we exchange."

Thinking this, Taki suppressed his unease.

Little did they know that this unreachable phone call was a sign of some kind of destiny.

10 month 4 day.

Mitsuha went to the temple fair.

Today happens to be the best day to observe the comet.

She cut her hair short.

Her friends, Katsuhiko Teshigawara and Sayaka Natori, looked at her new look with surprise.

Sayaka wondered, "Could it be because he was heartbroken that he cut his hair?"

Just then, a comet streaked across the sky.

With its long tail, it's as beautiful as a dream.

Then the comet split in two and flew toward them.

"Wait... this comet..."

"That comet in the opening sequence..."

"Mitsuba!"

Since then, Taki and Mitsuha have never switched again.

Taki spent a lot of time drawing paintings of Itomori Village.

She always had that hairband tied around her wrist.

But he couldn't remember who gave him the hairband.

The viewers in the live chat panicked completely.

"Oh no, a knife!!!!"

"You old scoundrel! You've smuggled in your own agenda again!"

The plot gave the audience no chance to breathe.

Taki decides to go find Mitsuha, following the direction he vaguely remembers from his dream.

He took a long bus ride and walked a long way before finally finding the place—Itomori Village.

But there was nothing there.

Three years ago, a comet fell, razing the entire village to the ground and killing more than 500 people.

"How is this possible... The messages Mitsuha left me are still there."

He turned on his phone, and the messages left by Mitsuha disappeared one by one in front of him, like sand slipping through his fingers.

Taki looked up the information about the disaster that killed 500 people.

The list of deaths in the document prominently featured Miyamizu Mitsuha.

The live chat exploded.

"What...? What?!"

"Wait... three years ago???"

"Taki is in the present, and Mitsuha was three years ago???"

"So...they didn't just exchange space...they also exchanged...time..."

"Mitsuba...is...already...dead?"

"Holy crap..."

"This plot..."

"I got goosebumps..."

The huge shock and reversal hit every viewer hard.

Just moments ago, they were immersed in beautiful fantasies of love, but now they've been dragged into the cold, cruel abyss of reality.

It turns out that what they crossed was not just gender and distance, but also three years of life and death.

It turns out that the strange encounter was destined to be an untouchable tragedy from the very beginning.

The film's mood takes a sharp turn, plummeting from lighthearted heights to the depths of despair.

Taki recalled Mitsuha's last message.

The comet is visible!

Taki went through all the materials, but suddenly felt that it was all just his imagination.

He couldn't remember the person's name.

That name is fading from my memory little by little.

He looked down at the hairband on his wrist—it was left to him by Mitsuha, a knot of time.

In his sleep, Taki heard the girl's voice again.

"Taki, don't you remember me?"

He woke up with a start, looked at the hair tie in his hand, and decided to go to the spirit body at Miyamizu Shrine.

He came to the divine body.

Remembering Mitsuha's name confirmed that this was not a dream.

It turns out that the person calling out to him was Mitsuha from three years ago.

Three years ago, at that very moment, a piece of the comet broke off and destroyed the entire village.

So Mitsuha never traded with him again after that.

Holding onto a sliver of hope.

Taki drank Mitsuha's kuchikami sake, looked at the two lines splitting in front of him, and instantly crossed the timeline.

He witnessed Mitsuha's birth and growth, and saw the exchange between Mitsuha and himself.

After seeing that Mitsuha had been to Sakura City, she asked her grandmother to cut her long hair.

Finally, on October 4th, the moment the comet fell.

Taki once again transmigrates into Mitsuha's body.

There's still a chance.

"We must save her! Save everyone!"

He went to Mitsuha's friend and devised a plan to save Itomori Village.

Blow up the power plant and use the school's broadcasting station to broadcast an emergency evacuation notice to the entire town.

On the other side, Mitsuha enters Taki's body and sees the vanished village and her own death through Taki's eyes.

On his way to the divine body, Taki was suddenly overwhelmed by a torrent of fragmented memories.

Three years ago, Mitsuha went to Tokyo to find Taki.

She traveled a long way to find him in the vast sea of ​​people.

In the crowded carriage, Mitsuha could almost feel Taki's breathing.

Kataki was focused on his studies and didn't know her.

"Taki, don't you remember me?"

Mitsuha mustered her courage and asked.

The boy, Taki, looked up, his face blank. "Who are you?"

Hope vanished in an instant.

The train swayed, and Mitsuha fell into the boy's arms, both of them blushing.

Mitsuha felt wronged: "This is clearly Taki..."

The young boy, Taki, only felt that this strange girl was both odd and intriguing.

Disappointed, Mitsuha prepared to get off the train, but the boy Taki seemed to sense something and suddenly asked, "What's your name?"

Mitsuha went against the flow of people, suddenly untied the red hair tie from her head, and shouted loudly.

"Mitsuba! My name is Mitsuba!"

He threw the hair tie towards the boy with all his might.

The hair tie flew through the air and was caught by the boy, Taki.

All the foreshadowing came to a sudden and dramatic conclusion at this moment!

That hair tie that Taki wore for three years, and that first encounter that changed everything.

That first call and the transmission of the name, spanning three years...

It was all destined all along!

The live chat was filled with people crying.

"So that's how hair ties came about..."

"So it was him from the very beginning..."

"Mitsuha... traveled such a long way by herself to find him..."

Remembering all this, Taki ran on the ring surrounding the divine body.

Mitsuha also heard his voice and ran on the same circular track.

They were right there, but they couldn't see each other.

Until—dusk falls.
