Plot - "Kimi no Na wa" (Japanese) or "Your Name" is a Japanese romantic animated fantasy movie that rotates around Mitsuha and Taki's actions, which start to dramatically affect each other's lives, meshing them into a fabric held together by destiny and situation.
Mitsuha is the girl of the chairman of a little mountain town. She’s a straightforward secondary school young girl who lives with her sister and her grandma and has no qualms about giving it a chance to be realized that she’s uninterested in Shinto customs or helping her dad’s electoral crusade. Rather she longs for leaving the exhausting town and attempting her fortunes in Tokyo. In the interim in the city, Taki Tachibana carries on with a bustling life as a secondary school student while juggling his part-time job and hopes a future in design. One day, Mitsuha stirs in a room that is not her own particular and all of a sudden winds up carrying on with the fantasy life in Tokyo—yet in Taki’s body! Somewhere else, Taki winds up carrying on with Mitsuha’s life in the unassuming wide open. In quest for a response to this interesting marvel, they start to look for each other.
