Five Centimeters Per Second

I finished reading while listening to pure music, and when I got to the last chapter, the disorderly music seemed to be affected by something, and it was a little sad, like cherry blossoms falling from the branches, being blown by the wind and falling to the ground. I can't say that I see those feelings, after all, I haven't experienced these sweet loves. I feel a little regretful. I hope that I will never look back in the book. I just remember the past and grow up with the memory. Finally, I really like the words and pictures written by these Japanese writers and directors or reflected on the screen. They are very delicate!

There are three chapters in the novel, telling stories from different periods. The protagonist Harano Kamiki has gone through several girlfriends but still cannot forget his first love in middle school. In his world, first love does not only refer to one person, but also a kind of power. Every time you reach a low point in life, you will recall the encouragement of first love. Even if you are not together in the end, yes, life is not always the same, regret is the main theme. As long as Yuanli and Shenshu still live in each other's memories, and are more powerful because of each other's existence, then it will be more meaningful! Almost everyone agrees that first love is the purest, most beautiful and unforgettable love! Guishu, the male protagonist's name is Guishu [crying][crying][crying]

The emotions are delicate, so delicate that there are no words to describe. It is really of high quality. You can feel completely different emotions from different perspectives of the characters. It is really beautiful. It is really amazing to be able to express such complete emotions and describe such three-dimensional characters in such a short space 👍🏻 1 hour and 30 minutes of reading time, really like watching a movie😭😭😭

I have heard about this movie a long time ago, but I have never watched it. I accidentally saw this novel on Tomato today, and I read it without hesitation. Reading it with the light music feels really different from other novels. I am no stranger to Makoto Shinkai. I am still confused after watching the re-release of the movie "Your Name". I can only say that it must be the same as "Your Name", and you will call the opposite person by name. Background music: "アゲイン", "moom flow", "Forest of Fireflies", "Wind Living Street", "いをありがとう"

"Five Centimeters per Second" is really a good book that influenced my view of love, and it is also one of my favorite books. So here I would like to make some comments about this book to make up for the shortcomings in my heart [sending my heart][sending my heart][sending my heart] There are two versions of this book. I'm not sure which one it is, but after reading both, you can better understand the images and inner conflicts of the characters in it. After watching the two versions and the big movie, the two words that "Five Centimeters Per Second" brought me the most are the sense of distance. The combinations of Akari and Takaki, Sumita and Takaki, and Takaki and Risa (mainly in this version) brought me the biggest feeling. It is the gradual formation of a person's view of love, which means youth, youth and adulthood respectively. The feelings of young people are very pure. It can be seen from Akari and Guishu that they are pure and clear about love, and they care about each other. Really, every time they see it, the corners of their mouths will rise, but for two children who are still in elementary school, it is actually impossible to grasp it. Especially when it comes to moving and changing schools, which we think is relatively common now (for now, when they were in elementary school, moving and changing schools was still quite significant), the inconvenience of information and transportation has become the biggest challenge for two childhood sweethearts who are still immersed in each other's tenderness. Therefore, we can see the first conflict that creates distance, which is the issue of transferring schools and moving. However, the first climax point appears from this. The two people's longing for each other turns into the last meeting. This pure love is the most touching, and there is a lot of psychological description in the meeting process, which is also a perfect reflection of the inner anxiety of the two. No matter how many times I read the first chapter, I will always be moved by their sincere feelings, but it always seems to backfire. After they separated, the two of them changed. So it is the second period - youth. This part mainly focuses on the description of Sumita and Takaki (the other version of the book describes Takaki). From the narrative perspective of this book, there is also a very obvious distance between Sumita and Takaki, that is, the distance between hearts. Sumita has never been able to convey his feelings for Takaki. In my heart, I think this is not because the two people are not longing for each other, but because they are at a loss for this relationship. Takaki is at a loss in Sumita. He has always been a very good person in his heart, and Takaki also has a good impression of Sumita (here is another version of the book, I highly recommend reading both [] [] []) in high school. The love in high school made the two students who were studying at a loss. It was not only the distance between them, but also the reason why they could not express it. However, this was not a cowardice in expressing their feelings, but the default way in their hearts that they thought was the best. Among them, the most impressive one is the narration about them when the rocket takes off. Before the rocket took off, Sumita and Takaki were alone together. I believe that many people have been tortured by it. Sumita wanted to express his feelings but was not sure whether Takaki had the same feelings. This is what I think of the sense of distance. He obviously likes but does not have the courage to convey it to the other party because he cannot grasp the distance. At the same time, this is also the highlight of this book. We can feel the inner struggle of the protagonist in different stories and understand what true love is. What impressed me the most was that they were able to let go correctly after the rocket took off, or that they could truly understand that without each other, they would still have a spiritual support in the future and they could continue to move forward. This is also a kind of gain that the sense of distance brings to us at the same time. Finally, there is the adult period of Takaki and Risa. Let me briefly talk about it here (there should not be many people who can see this). In my opinion, the relationship between Takaki and Risa is the kind of beautiful life I want to have most, the kind of worry-free food and clothing, the kind of ordinary life, and the kind of mutual dependence and companionship. I really want to say something about Takaki's excellence here. There have been girls since elementary school. He likes her, and his professional achievements as an adult are also very enviable. However, there is one thing about Takaki that makes people feel a little heartbroken, that is, he is used to hiding his feelings and thoughts every time in front of the girl he clearly likes. Just like Sumita, people almost have their thoughts written on their faces, but Takaki thought too deeply and chose to hide his feelings. So I think Guishu actually reflects more of our desire to do well to the other person and choose to hide the true feelings in our hearts. However, in the end, this idea cannot have both, and it becomes our own shortcoming. However, this is also the charm of this book. When we read their stories, we can also be inspired and gain insights into ourselves in reality. Perhaps this is our original intention of reading romance light novels, to bring ourselves into the beautiful descriptions, and then form our own understanding of love in reality. This book seems to slowly narrate past stories to me every time, using the simplest sentences to express the most complex and deepest emotions. At the same time, the detailed description of the pictures also brings me into the busyness and prosperity of Tokyo. Finally, let me end with a sentence from this book—— The falling speed of cherry blossoms is five centimeters per second. Even though we exchanged thousands of text messages, the distance between our hearts has never narrowed by one centimeter.

There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand people. Maybe I accidentally "exclusively enjoyed" my version of "Five Centimeters per Second". When I read the end of the book, I discovered that Makoto Shinkai wrote the novel after the movie was created, and I happened to be unable to sleep and read it. This is also the first time I reviewed "Five Centimeters per Second" after more than five years. The images in his memory and the words in front of him interweave new feelings again. Makoto Xinkai is delicate, otherwise he would not be known for his exquisite picture quality and crazy details. It's interesting to read novels and movies first or watch them later. People accidentally choose different paths. But who can say to others, "You can do it." So you need to taste it slowly...

So sweet, the sweetest novel ever

I went to watch the movie first and then read the novel. It was so uncomfortable. It hurt so much.

Deepseek rewrote the ending: - **Sakura Blossom Letter**: Thirteen-year-old Takaki and Akari parted ways at Tokyo Station, making a green promise amidst the blooming cherry blossoms. Unsent love letters and unsent text messages have become the deepest regrets of my teenage years. - **Time Flow**: Twenty-seven-year-old Takaki lives a stylized life in Tokyo, always stopping at the Yamanote Line platform at dusk in spring. Until one day I saw a photo of cherry blossoms in Kagoshima on a social platform, and the blurred profile on the edge of the photo awakened my sleeping memory. - **Going in both directions**: Akari always keeps the letterhead from that year, and returns to the original station every spring after becoming a librarian. When the cherry blossoms fell for the fifth thousandth time at a speed of five centimeters per second, the gears of fate began to turn. --- Spring in Tokyo always brings cherry blossom snow. On the platform of the Yamanote Line, Takaki looked at the photo of Kagoshima Cherry Blossom Road on the screen of his mobile phone. At the edge of the blurred pixels, the side face of a woman wearing a light purple sweater was illuminated by cherry blossoms, and the aqua blue hairpin was pinned to the tip of her hair. The weeping cherry blossoms at Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden should be in bloom at seven o'clock. He suddenly remembered that when he passed by the convenience store yesterday, the weather anchor on TV said that this year would be the cherry blossom year that only happens once in ten years. A few petals floated outside the glass curtain wall, and they happened to fall on the phone screen in the corner of Akari's eyes, like a drop of tears that would not evaporate. The airflow from the train entering the station rolled up Guishu's camel-colored trench coat. When he realized that he was running, his leather shoes had already stepped onto the central line in the opposite direction. The carriage swayed slightly in the dusk, and the golden buttons on the uniforms of the high school students reflected the sunset. A girl with a ponytail lowered her head and wrote something in a notebook, and the tip of the pen spread a small halo of ink on the paper. The letter from when he was thirteen was burning hot in the inner pocket of his chest. *** Akari was counting the sound of the second hand passing by on the dial. The closing music of the library had just stopped. The wooden bookshelf in the front row was still filled with the unique old aroma of the pages of "Man'yoshu". She reached up and smoothed the second button of her white shirt, where she held the cherry blossom brooch she would never take off. The evening breeze in Kagoshima passed through the window lattice and blew a familiar handwriting on the loan card in front of her. [Takaki Tono's borrowing record] "Flying Birds Chapter of Spring" 2011.3.31 "Starry Night" 2019.4.5 "Five Centimeters per Second" 2023.3.20 There are small numbers written in pencil on the edge of the library card: 35.6892° N, 139.7004° E. Those were the coordinates of the platform where they separated when they were thirteen years old. The ink stains were rubbed so repeatedly that they almost fainted. Akari grabbed the cardigan on the back of the chair and ran out, cherry blossom petals falling into her loose braid. *** The century-old cherry blossoms at the Marunouchi Exit of Tokyo Station are falling five centimeters for the 5,000th time. Guishu counted his breaths and stopped in front of the turnstile. Fifteen years later, he saw a woman in a light purple sweater turning around in the cherry blossom rain. There was an aqua blue hairpin in her hair, and the cherry blossom brooch on her chest shimmered in the dusk. The train going south roared and cut through the fluttering cherry petals, but it didn't last as long as I remembered. When the last petal brushed against the train window, Akari was already standing on the opposite side of the railway track, with the unsent letter lying in her palm. They raised their phones at the same time, and on the screen were two drafts fifteen years apart: "Akari, actually I had a ring in my pocket that day that I was going to give you." "Takaki-kun, when the cherry blossoms fall for the five thousandth time." The spring wind suddenly became gentle, and petals flying five centimeters per second fell on the overlapping shadows of the two people. This time there was no train coming, only two hands catching the cherry blossoms that had been waiting for fifteen years.

Different from sweet articles and Internet articles, the slightly sadistic plot allows people to experience the taste of growth in a deeper way. Running towards you, 5 centimeters per second

I had already seen the ending before reading it, but I still read it carefully. Maybe regret is also a kind of perfection. Life is always like this. The road you did not choose is full of unknowns, which makes us always think that the road we did not take is a better road, so there will always be a lot of melancholy and confusion about the present and the future. It's better to cherish the present and don't blame your past self. He was just like you now and couldn't see the future direction clearly. Now, you can put down the luggage on your back temporarily and run calmly!

Use me in the front and him in the back. Akari Takaki became someone else, a member of the busy crowd. I will only think of him when I am busy...

It's really hard to get over it. After watching the movie and then reading the novel, the picture always comes to mind. Guishu is really a good man. He had several relationships, but in the end he fell into loneliness. His last cry should be more of an escape from love. This is another shadow of his childhood. Was it her in the final "encounter"? This is not important. After all, the heroine is already a woman. This is more of a fantasy about the person she once loved, right? But this kind of open ending is really like Mr. Xin Haicheng. Guishu-kun, you can definitely do it!

The visuals of this book are so strong! The stories written by Makoto Shinkai are always so delicate, making me feel the beauty and helplessness of youth. I especially like the scene between Takaki and Akari under the cherry blossom tree in "Sakura Copy", it's so romantic! However, I kind of hate that young man who has been living in yesterday, why can't he come out of his room? Overall, this is a novel worth reading and will remind you of those youthful days.

Regret is the main theme of life, and the male protagonist's experience is also regrettable: meeting a good girl but not finding true happiness

The delicate description is very beautiful and makes people feel very real. When I read it, I felt nervous and sweet. It is also similar to the author's other works. It reminded me that youth is so beautiful and elusive, and first love is so beautiful. I haven't finished reading it yet, but I will continue. It's very artistic, the way of writing that dislocates time and space, and the many detailed descriptions are really beautiful. The words are exhaustive and the meaning is endless. The protagonist has rich emotional experiences, and his feeling about life seems to be frustrated and poetic.

Life is like the never-ending train in "Five Centimeters per Second". Unconsciously, time flies by. When I passed the intersection full of cherry blossoms for the first time, I just admired the scenery in front of me. When I suddenly looked back, I saw that the intersection had already disappeared into the distant horizon. In this journey that can never slow down, I have left many regrets. Can I pass through that cherry blossom intersection again? With such hope, I stumbled on the road. I sketched the person who had always been in my mind so many times in my mind. How is she (he) doing now? Even if it's only once, I really want to pass that cherry blossom intersection again. That day you casually said to me: The speed of cherry blossoms falling is five centimeters per second. Memories of summer are still swirling in my mind, and suddenly the throbbing has disappeared. The train has gone through countless tracks, but it has never passed that familiar cherry blossom intersection. Time has smoothed away the throbbing that once belonged to you, and replaced it with a new life, new feelings, and more worries and worries. I can no longer focus on unrealistic fantasies, but occasionally I dream about that snowy night when I went to meet you when I was 13. It seemed like there were only two of us in the world, clinging to each other by the faint candlelight. That day, I passed through that familiar intersection full of cherry blossoms again. What I passed by was the figure that I had sketched countless times in my memory. It had always been the same figure in different stages of my life. Everything seemed to be in a dream. Suddenly, a train passed by, breaking this perfect encounter. I used to wonder if life would be different if I had to do it over again. Now that I think about it, it seems that it is not necessary. After all, we have all been on our own life tracks for a long time.

It's pretty good, full of regrets, and it's also about growing up as a person. Not everyone has the courage to move forward. No matter what relationship it is, it will be a part of Guishu's life that he can't let go of. (The writing is really good, maybe I have seen too many regrets. I think it's a book, and I felt more uncomfortable after watching movies before)

The moment the tram moves forward, every moment is hurried. The tall buildings at dusk change from beautiful and warm to sad. Perhaps I have forgotten those fragmentary fragments. They are too short, cannot keep up with so many wonderful things, cannot catch up with those vows of eternal love. Two years have passed, and the past that once felt rich has become dim. The step I want to take again and again is finally suppressed. Everyone says that regardless of the true face of Mount Lu, it is just my small happiness that is in this mountain. There is nothing in my heart that is bright and beautiful, but on the way away from the past, it has become so insignificant and out of reach. The falling speed of cherry blossoms is five centimeters per second, but my memory flow rate is uneven. From the warmth of the day to the white horse passing by at a glance. Before reading this book, I thought I had forgotten it, but I never thought that some people will be engraved in my heart for the rest of my life. I'm afraid that I won't remember all this in fifteen years. Laughing and recalling my own one-man show Sad, the uncontrollable thing is gradually moving away Relieved, a chapter of the script that should have come to an end long ago My cliche story is not as good as one billionth of the world. I hope I can turn my head forward after the tram passes by like the protagonist. After the rocket launch, I woke up to dead silence. After the cherry blossoms bloomed, the noise of snowflakes continued. I want to meet you again, but I don't have the words I want to say to you this time, nor the persistence of the protagonist in the book. I want to never meet you again, and let you live forever in the huge mortal world where I can do nothing.

Many people in your life have actually seen them for the last time long ago. Timing is very important. Of course, different decisions will be made in different situations and at different times. Second 5 is more realistic than Makoto Shinkai's other works. It cuts through the shell of fantasy and it is a cruel love. It is not a true portrayal of many people. The only thing you can control is the present moment, do it, you will regret it anyway.

"About us falling in love when we were young but having to break up" [crying] Xinhai City's language skills are still very solid, and the exquisite description of the environment makes us feel like we are immersed in the scene. While watching, two songs echoed in my mind, one was "One Last Kiss" when parting, and the other was the heartbreaking "Under the Sea". Everyone has youth, has loved and been loved in the past, has been emotional and regretful. The love we had when we were young is sincere and pure, but we have to bow our heads to reality because we are not yet capable of being responsible for the people we love. But when we are truly able to stand alone and start a family, the person we are looking for is no longer there, and our mood may have quietly changed. Sometimes we don't even know how to love someone, nor how to treat the love of others. After being mixed with the atmosphere of real achievements, we seem to have lost the original, purest and purest feelings. Over the years, things have changed, she is no longer who she is, and you are no longer the you. Although we like each other, we can't get together after all. But I think there is a shadow of your presence in my life. Because of your encouragement and trust, it gives me the courage and hope to survive difficulties. Thinking of that gathering under the cherry blossom tree, although I am still walking alone now, it seems that I am no longer alone.

Compared to anime, the content of the novel contains more information, and the delicacy of the description is unique.

The characteristic of Japanese light novels - the graphics are really strong!

Just 60,000 words? I watch movies that are quite long

It was too much. When I saw them dating under the cherry blossoms, I thought it was a sweet story. When I looked back at Hua Miao's exit, Guishu's three relationships after entering college all had ups and downs. They were stabbed three times in a row. In addition, the male protagonist was gradually becoming decadent because of his confusion in life. Another stab, as well as the miss and memories of the male and female protagonists, directly killed him with one stab. It was so overwhelming that it hurt. It hurt so much that I still feel uncomfortable in my chest. [Cry][cry][cry][cry]

I hope this ending ends up like "Your Name", like Sanye and Long's,

The speed of cherry blossoms falling is 5 seconds, but the love missed is a lifetime

Love is possession, love is regret, love is longing, love is letting go, "Love the other person better than yourself."

The one star missing is my regret for the story.

After reading it, I felt a piece missing in my heart. " He was walking at the intersection of the railway and the highway. There was a tall cherry blossom tree next to it, and the asphalt road on all sides was covered with a layer of snow-white fallen flowers. He looked at the slowly falling petals. Five centimeters per second. " Even after 15 years, I still feel touched for no reason when I see that unsent love letter. [Cry][cry]
