📌 Hey! Just a gentle heads up that this film has heavy themes of suicide, bullying, and deep emotional pain for those that may be also watching this for the first time.This didn't really feel like a movie to me. It felt like somebody gently holding all the tiny broken, quiet parts of my own heart and saying, "hey, I see you." Every frame was full of beautiful tenderness. The way the light moved through windows, the soft colors letting us breathe, even the way stillness had so much emotion in it. This was a beautiful anime movie inside and out. The little X's over people's faces wrecked me a bit. They were so powerful! They so accurately showed the way shame, fear, and isolation literally erase other people from your world. From Shoya's world. It was like watching someone drown in their own self-hatred, unable to really look anyone in the eye because they don't believe they deserve that kind of connection. When the X's finally fell way, it felt like watching healing through art. It was beautiful, relatable, and insanely moving.This movie was so honest about suicidal thoughts. How deeply lonely those thoughts can feel. I struggled with them myself growing up and watching Shoya carry that invisible weight felt so painfully familiar. The film never pretends that trauma just disappears. It shows that even after you begin healing, there are still dark days and slips. Still moments when your mind pulls you backward. But it also showed something just as real: You can always keep going anyway. You can still choose to reach for people. You can still choose to live.If anyone watching this ever feels like they're standing on the same edge, I want you to know this with everything in me: You are not broken for feeling that way. You are not alone in it. No amount of mistakes, no amount of shame, no matter how many painful chapters you go through. Nothing is worth losing your life over. Even if healing looks messy and hurts like heck. Even if some days are darker than others. Bright days always come back. Sometimes softly and slowly. Sometimes miraculously. But they do always come back and find their way to you again. And you deserve to be here when they do 🤍If you or someone you know is struggling, you are not alone!

Thank you for the warning. I'll add this to my watchlist for a time when I might be in the right head space. ♥️

Terry In the UK

I have never seen this before Kali, so I am very much looking forward to it....the only Japanese animé I've only ever watched before has always come out of Studio Ghibli...Spirited away, Ponyo and my favourite is one called "Arrietty". Even without watching it yet, I already feel I know three things.. 1- I'm going to get captivated by the story. 2- I'm gonna cry. 3- It will be beautiful and also astounding. Thank you for bringing these types of movie to us Kali, without you.. I probably would never have seen this. That's what makes you and your Patreon/YouTube channel special, and it's also why so many people, myself included feel so privileged and blessed to be a part of your incredible cinematic journey. xx ♥️

Jose Morales

This movie was a lot heavier than I expected it to be. I thought it was going to be a bit more lighthearted like Kiki's Delivery Service. Although heavy, it was a very good movie, and I'm glad my friend asked me to watch with her.

JoyBoy69

I've loved this story since it was only in written form and then the movie came out and I was able to have all the sound design added and everything. It enhances the story so much.

Dude Longcouch

Not gonna lie, "Your Name" sent me into a spiraling existential crisis that I am only now starting to recover from, so, after your warning in the description, I'm not sure if I should blind watch this right now 😅

rubberkidney

oh man you should watch demon slayer, now that weve 'broken the anime ice' so to speak, its way more sentimental than its name would suggest.

Phil Stubblefield

Kali, I don't think I'm going to watch this with you because of its emotional weight, but I can't say how thankful I am for your transparency and your heart for others! You are such a gem, and the idea that you almost weren't here fills my heart with grief for the pain you had to endure. God bless you, my friend, for the light that you bring to those around you! 🕯️

Richard

I’m almost at a loss for words here, like any words I type are not worthy of that deep message you conveyed. You honestly could have saved a life with what you wrote, that’s how powerful it was. Like Phil said, your community is fully with you every step, through thick and thin. Thanks for being here for us, even when it’s difficult ❤️ After your Hawkeye reaction I had mentioned that my oldest daughter volunteers within the deaf community and the situation of feeling isolated is very real. A large percentage of them have emotional scars, whether due to bullying or just their handicap. Thank you for putting so much of your heart and soul into this reaction 🥲

Greg

Loved the reaction had a feeling this would hit you one of my favorite anime movies. The part with ishidas mom bleeding nishimiyas mom had ripped her earring out. Hmm more movie suggestions Spirited away, Akira, perfect blue, i want to eat your pancreas, the garden of words. As for shows full metal alchemist brotherhood( my personal favorite of all time). Cowboy bebop, parasyte, erased, your lie in April, attack on titan to name a few lol.

James Park

You really know how to pick them such great animation, characters and story, my usual anime is action not drama/romance but since Your Name I've really enjoyed this genre I've even watched them with my daughters who absolutely love them, thanks Kali. I know I've mentioned it before but one punch man is a great series, great animation and characters not as much crying just a guy struggling with the mundane boredom of ultimate strength and power, the first season is 10 out of 10 and the dubbed version is very good too

ITMacPro

This is my first anime I've ever watched. I really enjoyed it and the message it gave. I'm still on the journey of self forgiveness and movies like this help. I look forward to seeing more anime through this channel.

M1 Maz

I love how slowly and gently this story was told. In a way that I feel would only work in an anime. The art style, the expressions, the way everything was conveyed just sat with me like I was there. Felt less like a film, and more like life happening in real time. And I loved how real it felt. Life is messy, we all make mistakes that stick with us, and mending the broken ties that those mistakes caused is never easy. You wish you could take it all back, but life just doesn't work like that. The emotional toll it had on all the characters was so clear to see and so well done to making us feel what it's really like. Outside of the anime/cartoons we watched as kids, I have absolutely no experience with this genre, so I've really been loving discovering it first hand with you through these first two you've watched! Looking forward to the next one!

Alex Sanders

Beautiful, lovely 🖤 I Want to Eat Your Pancreas next, please 🙏 As for a show, I really don't know... Your Lie in April, maybe?

mitchhamilton64

my anime recommendation is Violet Evergarden. made by the same studio and the animation is STELLAR for a series. just amazing and same with the story. main character voiced by the same one for sahara. if you thought this movie gave you a good cry, ho boy! VE is just another level of tearjerker! you caught that ishida was just inside his head when those classmates were seemingly talking about him and how lonely he is. such an easy thing to miss or misinterpret. ueno to me is a very misunderstood overall. you called it when you said she liked ishida. in elementary she liked him and its in the manga but one positive response she got from ishida was when she took part in the bullying. but not just that, i understand her pov. its not shoko's fault at all and she didnt deserve the bullying but to be put into a class that is not built for her disability and to almost revolving around a deaf child, to put it bluntly, its not the classes responsibility. in a perfect world, yeah, it would be great if everyone got along but she was just dropped in their lives. the teacher didnt help either as he was just downright awful. i heard horrible things in the manga but at least in this i think there was a point he was trying not to laugh when shoko was reading. but back to ueno, she did try to help shoko at first and didnt mind but her own studies started to fall behind, plus that singing competition coming up where they had no shot with shoko. also, i heard that she has dyslexia and that made it hard for her as well. i could go on but ueno may have been right about shoko, where shoko would rather say im sorry than tell you off while ueno wouldve preferred to be told off than a simple sorry. thats why she was trying to find common grounds on the ferris wheel, saying they dont like each other but that doesnt mean they cant get along. btw, translation left some things out. the chalkboard at the beginning after sahara had transferred schools said something like "congratulations shoko! you made sahara leave!" another is on the ferries wheel when she tells ueno "i dont hate you" she also says "i hate myself." also, FUCK KAWAI! theres a long list of reasons but to give one big one easily missed on is after her outburst with ishida in the class and he runs away, theres a few frames where shes smiling as hes running.

Hearing your story after the movie and your reasoning shows how much your own thoughts can hurt you and how wrong they are, I’m thankful and happy you’re still here because for the past few months your reactions have helped get me through some similar thoughts. You’ve helped me and probably many others more than you could know

Soul Kloud

Hi, Kali, I'm glad you're getting into more anime. Its why I join the patreon. I loved the reaction, your story and talking about this movie's message. Even leaving a help line, very thoughtful. I would like to say, you should read the manga since there is more details to characters. Oh, for movie rec. I'll say "weathering with you" since it is in the same world as your name, as for a show thats hard. Anime is a vast world of entertainment, there is so many styles and genres. A lot having absurdity in them, So to stay on theme of what you have watched. I guess "Orange" will be one to your liking.

Joe

Wow, this one hit hard. My daughter is significantly hearing impaired. This is her first year at a mainstream school. Previously, she has gone to a school for the deaf, but with hearing aids, the teachers wearing special microphones and a DHH representative at the school we are giving her a shot to go to school with her siblings. So far, things seem to be going ok, but as a parent (especially a parent of a child with unique abilities) you always fear what that school experience will be like because they are different. I watched this after she went to sleep, and I just wanted to wake her up and hug her. I hope she never goes through what Shoko went through, but I would be naive to think she will not have difficulties with other kids at some point. I always want to be there to protect her. However realistically that is not possible or even the best thing for her, but I can still support her. This one is going to stick with me. For Anime shows, there is Attack on Titan and Frieren and I really think your interest in gaming would draw you to Solo Leveling. Two animated shows to consider too that could really interest you with the visuals, storytelling, and music are Arcane and Blue Eye Samurai.

Robert da Spruce

I’m ashamed to say. But growing up, on the spectrum of being bullied to being a bully, I was probably on the bully end of the spectrum. Although not as bad as Ishida was, I definitely made jokes at other people’s expense Or course it was done out of deep insecurity, and wanting to be liked. But that’s no excuse I debated about writing this. Because it probably makes me sound like a terrible person. But I felt this point is more important To anyone that’s being bullied, or have been bullied. I want you to know it rarely has anything to do with you. But everything to do with the bully’s insecurities I know that’s small comfort when you are going through it. But I hope you don’t let this person have so much power over the way you feel about yourself. Because they don’t deserve it Harming yourself is never the answer. And if you can find the strength to make it through, you’ll be a stronger and better person than I am

Marcel S

Oh yeah, Violet Evergarden would be great. I'm sure she'd really like Violet Evergarden. So many emotions. So Beautiful.

RM

I'm so glad you finally got to watch this!

Seitenname

If you're starting out with anime shows, I recommend Frieren beyond journey's end and eightysix

kaliwali

I've heard that Frieren is a great one to check out! Thank you!

kaliwali

Honestly, you being brave enough to say this out loud is beautiful! It doesn't make you look like a terrible person, it makes you human and one that has taken time to look back and really reflect 🤍 THAT matters! What you said about bullying coming from insecurity is painfully true. Hurt people, hurt people. But it leaves real scars on the people they aim it at even if it wasn't ever personal from the start. It's a domino effect in so many ways. Your message to anyone who has been bullied is so important. I know it doesn't magically make the pain go away, but sometimes just hearing that can relieve some of the weight. Thank you for sharing this! It adds a layer of honesty and healing here and that's something always welcome 🤍

kaliwali

My heart.. thank you for sharing this! I can feel how much love you have for your daughter 🤍 Watching this through the eyes of a parent hits sooo differently, I agree. The way you described wanting to wake her up and just hug her.. Yes! I've done that many times after watching things that shook me a bit as a parent haha. I feel that same fear, honestly. Of knowing you can't always protect them, even though every bit of you wants to. It's a heavy kind of love for sure. And you're right she may face moments where the world isn't gentle but having someone like you in her corner makes such a difference! Support doesn't erase pain, but it does give it somewhere to be safe and seen. That's everything. Thank you so much for sharing! I love when we can take movies and turn it into someone real and human and see them a bit differently. I hope your daughter's school year continues to be full of kindness and patience instead of judgement. Also thanks for the recommendations on shows! I'll definitely write those down!

kaliwali

That's awesome! I've really been loving the anime I've watched so far, so I definitely can't wait to get into more. I really think a show would be amazing to get into next so I'll probably start that up soon. But more movies would be amazing too since I've loved the two I've seen so far very much! Thanks so much for the suggestions!

kaliwali

This means so much to me 🤍 It's so true about how much our own thoughts can twist and turn and make things feel so much bigger than they really are. Knowing that these watchalongs have helped you even in the tiniest bit means the absolute world to me. You're not alone in this space, not now and not ever

kaliwali

Omg. I love how deeply you see this story!! I'm glad you brought up Ishida being trapped in his own head. That detail is so quietly brilliant in every way! It's wild how loneliness can make you feel like the whole world is whispering about you even when it's just your own fear doing all the talking. And your read on Ueno? Honestly that gave me a whoooole new layer to think about! I still struggle with some of her actions, but seeing how her frustration, jealousy, academic stress, and even her own learning struggles fed into it makes her feel way more painfully human than I first labeled her as! Hurt people really do hurt people. The stuff about the teach and the classroom is SO important! I'm sad it didn't translate that for me. Shoko never deserved what happened to her, but she was placed into a system that wasn't willing to meet her needs at all. Unfortunately, that happens all the time today. Then everyone blames the kid instead of the structure. The chalkboard line you mentioned and the "I hate myself" adds SO much more to those scenes omg. It seriously changes everything, and I wish that would have been there on my first watch! ALSO um yes about Kawai! Definitely missed her smirk/smile as Ishida was running. It says WAY more about her than any big speech every could 🙀 Thank you SO much for sharing all of this. I love learning more about these stories and how much detail, love and little bits go into it that I missed my first look around. This will be one I definitely watch again!

kaliwali

Thank you for the recommendations!!

kaliwali

I love that so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as I did 🤍 Definitely looking forward to more anime here too. I've really been enjoying the vibe, stories and art so much!

kaliwali

Yessss I love that! "Life happening in real time" is exactly what it felt like. It was such a quiet, patient story that really breathes. Especially for a film about regret and healing. I think that's honestly what I love so much about these anime movies so far! I'm really excited that you're discovering anime alongside me for the first time as well! Thank you for being here for this part of the journey! I'm definitely excited to keep watching more anime and even get into our first show here soon! 👀

kaliwali

That makes me smile!! Especially knowing you're watching these with your daughter as well! My daughter isn't quite old enough yet to watch this one but I think Your Name would be a fun one to try with her! There really is something extra special about these stories that open the door for quiet and emotional conversation and reflection which I very much love!! That's awesome that you love action anime but never really branched into these stories! I have One Punch Man on my list to get to!! Thanks for trusting me with your anime journey & branching out a bit with the more emotional side of it all! I'm glad you're loving it too!!

kaliwali

Oh my goodness. I thought MAYBE that had happened with Nishimiya's mom but wasn't 100% sure because it was hard to swallow. Wow. Then the fast forward to her cutting her hair later on.. That hits so differently now! Thank you for explaining and for the recommendations! I'll add them all! I have really been loving Anime so much lately so I'm excited to watch more 🤍

kaliwali

Oh my goodness, I don't blame you at all!! Yes, Take your time with this one 🤍

kaliwali

I love that your oldest daughter volunteers with the deaf community. The isolation that is felt is so real and after watching this beautiful movie it really captures that feeling with such an aching amount of honesty. I'm so grateful for people like your daughter that are out there offering kindness and connection to those who need it! It's those small acts that change lives more than we ever get to see!

kaliwali

I don't blame you at all for skipping this one, Phil! It was very heavy and emotional but in a beautiful way 🤍 I can see how it is not for everyone. I'm glad you're here and thank you so much for the very kind words always!!

kaliwali

I keep hearing Demon Slayer is amazing! Definitely on my list!

kaliwali

Oh wow, I love that so much!! I was browsing the manga section of my library the other day and there are soooo many that I wanted to get into (if I had the time lol) but after reading Marvel and DC comics I will probably branch into Manga at some point! I'll have to pick up a copy of this story bc it was so beautiful!

kaliwali

Same, honestly! Waaaay heavier than I thought but it was also beautiful and heartwarming at the same time. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

kaliwali

I loooove that you're coming from the Studio Ghibli side of the anime world! I've seen and loved Ponyo and Totoro with my daughter early last year and those two movies is 100% what kickstarted my desire to jump into more anime! I'm so glad I did because wow.. the two anime movies I've watched on this channel so far are SO incredibly powerful and beautiful in every way. I'm so glad that you're discovering these with me for the first time as well! That's exactly what I hope this space is: A place to wander into stories that you might not have found on your own or have loved sooo deeply that you get to relive them for the first time! So thank you so much for being here, trying new things with me, and for bringing all the kindness you bring 🤍 Also, I hope you're feeling better from the flu now!!

kaliwali

Of course! Definitely watch this when you are ready for those heavy themes 🤍

JoyBoy69

I love story telling through the medium of Anime there is so much you can do. That's near impossible for live action. Keep up the great work, at least for myself I enjoy it!!

Robert da Spruce

Thank you Kali That actually means a lot to me. Perhaps more than you’ll ever know

mitchhamilton64

thank you for taking the time to read my looong message. another thing i wanted to mention was ishida, while he was a big part of the bullying, he was basically thrown under the bus by the teacher. what happened was the teacher forced him to take accountability and then he turned his attention to ueno to speak up, which isnt fair. she didnt just outright be like "oh yeah, is was def all him and no one else." she was more like "um, well, maybe, kind of, sort of, perhaps there may have been sometimes, a few times ishida went to far.... i think." when put on the spot like she was. and ishida went from there in a downward spiral of lashing out at everyone involved. but yeah, i understand still not liking ueno but idk, i just cant hate her. i see it more as just two people who have different view points on how they approach things. ueno wants shoko to be more honest, even if it would hurt her feelings instead of being in her own shell, and theres nothing wrong with shoko being who she is, except for her hate for herself. ueno is just a very complex girl who im sure on some level also hates herself. forgot to mention, a great example of ueno is at the end. you said she never apologized but her learning sign language was her way of showing change. and thats who she is, im assuming. instead of being sorry about everything, just do something about it, is more her philosophy.

mitchhamilton64

OMG! i forgot to mention this wonderful, sad detail! there are soooo many times when something is going on around shoko and people wont tell her what it is. like when ueno met her again after getting on ishida's bike. ishida didnt tell her what was happening when it was over! theres more examples but the absolute saddest one is on the bridge when everyone is fighting! theres a moment where shoko asks either sahara or her sister to tell her whats going on and they both chose not to! god, the heartbreak! imagine being in her shoes where she knows something serious is being talked about, feelings are being hurt, things are being said and she has no clue what it is! the amount of isolation she feels all the time! GOD, I LOVE THIS MOVIE FOR PORTRAYING WHAT COULDVE BEEN AN EASILY OVERLOOKED DETAIL BY THE CREATORS! 😭

Tom

So many good anime shows to recommend. I say start with a Frieren like show since that’s a fun watch that’s not so heavy etc. and can ease you in. Attack on Titan My hero academia Demon slayer Chainsaw man Dan da dan Jujutsu kaisen Solo leveling Frieren beyond journeys end Gachiakuta Some of my favs but there’s so many more good ones as well

James Park

They definitely have very well told relatable stories, my oldest daughter has had many problems with bullies over the past 10 years of school being kicked out of multiple friend groups thinking she was the problem it was heart breaking as a father. She's finally found great friends now, what made it worse she has such a pure heart and cant understand why we all cant be friends. But watching this with all 3 of my daughters opened their eyes and went through a lot of tissues, I'm glad you got through your dark times and are here now helping others thank you Kali

Jay Steiner

Your clock reminds me of Steins;Gate which is a great show.. The beginning is a bit confusing, but an excellent show.

TheMuffinMan

Please dont feel discouraged from watching anime in dub, everyone has their own preference. I do highly prefer dub over sub but I will agree some anime have a higher quality sub

mitchhamilton64

i would argue most anime have higher quality of sub, like 90% better than dub

Sikk Karuzo

I think this movie should be shown in schools. Ive only been watching you for a few days and I already love your reactions. It honestly shocked me to hear that you were in such a dark place at one point in your life and Im really happy that you survived it. I was lucky enough to never get bullied or experience anything like that but I know there are so many people who suffer because of bullying or other problems. Kids and even adults can be incredibly cruel. Ive been struggling with mental health issues myself for years but luckily Ive never had serious thoughts about ending my life. I have amazing and understanding friends and really supportive parents and Im incredibly grateful for that. But for everyone who doesnt have something like this right now please dont give up. The world is huge and there are people out there who will love you support you and be happy that you exist. Your life is worth more than anything. Even during the hardest times please dont give up. The time when you will feel happier will come even if you cant see it right now. I promise.

I finally prepared to rewatch this movie. But apart from the movie itself, to me the saddest part is that if you don't know about the Kyoto Animation arson attack, this is one of the last products before the tragedy happened. Most of the talented people who worked on this masterpiece are not with us anymore...
