Shinkai: It's about a character closing doors or something
Me: Say no more, absolutely on board, day 1.

Can't wait. He and his studio are beyond talented. Some of the most beautiful films ever crafted.
Completely forgot he was announcing something today.
As long as it's not something similar to your name or withering with you, I'm looking forward to it.

Despite being quite enamoured with "Your Name" after I watched it for the first time, I agree with you. Also, some of the problems I had with both "Your Name" as well as "Weathering With You" (much more so for the latter one) stemmed from too much "magic", so I'm not quite sold on the idea that that is apparently back again; 5 Centimeters Per Second worked wonderfully while being completely grounded in reality. But it does sound nice indeed that he's trying different themes this time.
Official Twitter and Production Press Conference premiere
OP

The official Twitter Account for the movie says the production press conference will air on TV (and YouTube?) at 11PM/23:00 JPT.
(less than 4 hours from now)
Also Makoto Shinkai will answer questions under the #すずめのここがキニナル hashtag on Twitter Spaces after the premiere.
Shamefuly reposting what i did in the first announcement thread :
Personally i lost all hype after the last two movies, aside from the visuals which are always gorgeous, they didn't impact me at all... Your name was just okay, still a good time, but weathering with you was the worst imo! We're really far from something like 5cm per second and garden of words
would be cool if i'm wrong for that new movie though

Glad to hear it sounds like it is outside his usual wheelhouse! I really like most of his films but after Weathering With You was such a regression from Your Name (imo) I was sort of worried he was going to wind up stuck in a rut on "boy meets girl" romances with a supernatural twist.
An adventure film with a female MC sounds like a good change of pace.

You were tricked for 29 minutes haha.
Please be better than the last two movies. I feel that ever since Shinkai got a budget his storytelling quality dropped in favour of visuals and animation.
In for how beautiful it will be. But I'm guessing it'll be another elaborate contraption full of dull, hollow sentiments.
As long as it's the just ending, I won't complain.
I just don't want another movie where they get separated in the first act, then the rest of the movie is them longing for each other.
I've been a HUGE FAN since his debut work of Hoshi no Koen -- hard to believe it'll be 20 years since it came out next year.
Ugh, another reason to feel old....

I could watch 5 Centimeters daily (actually, I'm pretty sure I did at some point) and not grow bored of it. It's such a rich movie, both audiovisually as in the story. Universal in a way that's very difficult to achieve with these magic-infused stories of his lately.
I love all of his movies.
They got better and better imo, and moreso now that he's done going for bitter ending everytime lol
Can't wait for this one, seems like it's going to be more fantasy setting huh. I do prefer his more grounded in reality films, but we'll see I guess

Seems useful if you want to go for a quick dip, but don't have any lake or pool near your house. That water looks pretty pristine.
Weathering with You was an immense let down and might just be my least favorite movie of his (his worst written work, as far as I'm concerned). Respectively, I don't have high hopes for this.
I seriously never minded his very specific romance catalogue but when the execution and character writing hardly get better over the works then yeah...

In for more scenery porn and (prob) a nice soundtrack.
Plot-wise...I guess we'll see. He's usually a miss with the big concept fantasy adventure stuff like Children Who Chase Lost Voices or Weathering with You so this synopsis doesn't inspire much confidence. I'd much prefer his down-to-earth films like 5cm/s or Garden of Words but I guess he's graduated to big-budget affairs now.

Hell yeah! Probably gonna come out overseas by 2023, but I'll be there.
I've seen Weathering With You a total of 5 times on theaters (something I've never done before since I never rewatch movies in theaters barring a few exceptions), and probably seen Your Name for 3-4 times over the years. Something about these movies makes them very pleasing and entertaining watches. I hope this one will be the same for me. Ah dammit I need to watch 5cm and Garden of Words again.
I remember reading that they started work on the script for this during the start of COVID lockdowns, I wonder how it'll affect the story/themes of the film.

Wasn't the biggest fan of Weathering With You (I thought it was better on a second watch) but I'm looking forward to this. I wonder if RADWIMP will be doing the soundtrack again.
Btw I think that second word should be "Tojimari" instead of "Dojimari".
