We have met, for each of us to walk forward.

Takao, who is training to become a shoemaker, skipped school and is sketching shoes in a Japanese-style garden. He meets a mysterious woman, Yukino, who is older than him. Then, without arranging the times, the two start to see each other again and again, but only on rainy days. They deepen their relationship and open up to each other. But the end of the rainy season soon approaches...

Extremely HQ/HD and amazingly high quality animation.

Was really looking forward to this movie when I saw the PV, can't wait to watch it. Though it seems the epilogue is untranslated?

Imagine if the storyï»¿ was about a 27 year old man and a 15 year old girl.

So many problems, taboos and aspects of society with stigma can so easily be more accepted if you just replace the dude with a anime girl xD

I'm not sure about any epilogue or what but there are subbed BD-rips available on torrent sites.

aaah, just watched it.
as always, I loved watching Makoto Sensei's works, but they just end in a heartbeat. ; 7 ;
and jeez, that ost is amazing. I just adored the ending song.

the epilogue isn't translated, but someone did translate it in the comments.
there isn't much he says in the end anyways and you can sort of make out what he's saying.

The scenery was so beautiful. I loved the scenes where there were raindrops on the windows and all the bird's eye view angle changes of the city.

Such a bittersweet ending.
