Some people want to be able to watch a movie "for the first time" all over again. Others want to forget a rubbish one. If you could remove just one movie from your memory, which would it be?

Your Name, a beautiful anime movie. I was legit floored the whole way through. I'd watch that with new eyes in a heartbeat.

In not really into anime at all, but a friend convinced me to watch that and it was just so satisfying. Loved it.

There are a lot of others that live in that same vein. Ones that are closer to slice of life or drama and don't have the tropes associated with most anime. Anime can be as broad as all of film as far as content and story.

A few you may enjoy if you liked 'Your Name'

  • A Silent Voice - A bully grows up and tries to make amends with the deaf girl he once tormented.
  • Your Lie in April - A young pianist loses the ability to perform the piano after his mother's death, and his experiences after he meets a violinist
  • Violet Evergarden - An ex-soldier whose recent employment at a postal company tasks her with writing letters that can connect people
  • Garden of Words - A student opting to skip class on a rainy day encounters a woman skipping work. They share a covered bench and a relationship begins to form
  • Weathering with You - A runaway befriends an orphaned girl who has the ability to control the weather
  • Belle - A very different retelling of Beauty and The Beast
  • Bubble - A very different retelling of the Little Mermaid

I'm really picky about shows and movies and I've found all of those to be excellent.
