How long will it take to get closer to each other?

I watched it again tonight, Makoto Shinkai "5 Centimeters Per Second".

"If the falling speed of cherry blossoms is 5 centimeters per second, how long does it take to get closer to each other?"

A plain but deeply touching work.

The distance from the person you want to see is very far, and
sometimes even if you exhaust your strength and time, and try to get closer,
in front of distance and time,
your firm mood will become very fragile.

Maybe give up one day, like the story.
Then they each lived on a line that did not intersect, and
the people who were familiar with each other gradually became unfamiliar.

But the regret of being close to Yuhuai will continue.
Even after a few years, I will always try to find each other in the sea of ​​people. I
would rather wait for the encounter as a miracle than have the courage to contact each other again.

Is it fate or fate,
apart from pity and helplessness, what else can I do?

So I started to look back on the past, and tried my best to find the reason.
What was hindering each other?
...
is the distance, the time,
or the cowardice of each other.

5 Centimeters per Second quotes

  • Kanae Sumida (segment "Cosmonaut"): When I get near Tono I get this tight sensation deep in my chest. He's so nice. Sometimes it makes me want to cry.

  • Takaki Toono: It must really be... a lonelier journey than anyone could imagine. Cutting through absolute darkness... encountering nothing except the occasional stray hydrogen atom. Flying blindly into the abyss, believing therein lie the answers to the mysteries of the universe. And us... to that end, how far should we go? And how far van we go?
