5 Centimeters per Second
Byousoku 5 Centimeter
Takaki and Akari have been close since childhood, and they're clearly into each other. But life pulls them apart, and staying connected becomes harder. They make a promise to keep in touch, and their love seems strong enough to survive the distance and time. Thing is, feelings like that don't always last forever. The story follows two people trying to make a long-distance relationship work. They're holding onto memories and each other, determined to see one another again—but in doing so, they end up hurting the people around them without even realizing it. It's less about romance succeeding and more about what it costs.
