Makoto Shinkai’s new film, “Your Name (“Kimi No Na Wa.” in Japanese”) portrays a boy and a girl with an breathtakingly beautiful background, which people call as “Shinkai World.” It is a drama about a boy and girl who switches each other’s bodies during their dreams and the “distance” created by two characters who have a totally different life style.
