About this Anime:
Cherry blossom petals fall to the ground at 5 centimeters per second. When Akari Shinohara says this to Takaki Tono, she's about to move far away with her family, leaving Takaki behind in Tokyo.
A rocket crawls to its launch pad at 5 kilometers per hour. Kanae Sumida tries to bring Takaki down to Earth long enough to notice her.
Adult Takaki is a programmer in Tokyo. At a railroad crossing, he sees a girl out of the corner of his eye, and feels a pang of nostalgia. He turns to face her, but now a train obstructs his view....
These three stories make up Makoto Shinkai's film about youthful love and loss.
