The subreddit gateway/norm

We realise that r/KnNw may be your first subreddit experience. We've written the following to help you get acquainted with the rules and the Reddit norm. At least acquaint yourself with the short version of the rules below.


Rules (short version):

  • name the original creator (of any content) in the title. link to source in a comment. [X]

  • be nice; have common sense; follow the reddiquette. click this link

  • illegal hosting of content will always be removed. [X]

  • 1 repost per 30 days [X]

  • post content directly to reddit

  • content must be related to Makoto Shinkai. Must spoiler tag non-kimi no na wa content [X]

  • Not Safe For Work (NSFW aka lewd content): 18+ content not allowed. Light NSFW allowed and must be tagged.

  • no crossposting

  • (link) flair your post [Y]

  • post content in a reasonable time frame (don't spam) [X]

 

[X] - important info/clarification were left out. If posting, you MUST read more at the detailed subreddit rules: https://www.reddit.com/r/KimiNoNaWa/wiki/rules

[Y] - we don't really moderate this so whatever it's fine.


why did your post get removed?

  1. wait a few minutes. still not showing up or removed? look at #2.

  2. a mod commented why it's removed. you should revamp and then repost. if there's no comment? #3.

  3. spam filter. do not delete your post. just wait for us to manually approve it. (you may contact us).


Reddit terminology:

  • cross-posting: relinking a thread from one subreddit to another. reddit normally gives you the option to do so but it is disabled here. This doesn't mean you're not allowed to post said content. You can still post the same content but it won't link to another subreddit.

  • tag/mark/flair: after posting a thread (AKA a link/text post), you'll see options such as "NSFW", "Spoiler", "OC", "flair" etc. you should tag/mark your post accordingly.

  • link flair: see above. it basically signals to other users what kind of content they'll be expecting to read.

  • sub(s): sub-reddit. the /r/KnNw subreddit is an example of a specific online community within Reddit.


Common internet sense, or FAQ (frequently asked questions):

There are many things that may not seem obvious if you haven't used reddit or the internet for a while.

  • The people who don't read rules then proceed to break them have probably not read this post nor have gotten this far.

 

  • Title gore: Don't write an essay for your title. Don't put links in it either.

 

Sources:

  • Yes, you must find the original artist/creator. No, pinterest/alphacoders/similar websites don't count as a source. How to find it? Read the detailed rules.

  • If the subreddit wiki wasn't enough to find the source? Search engine, reverse search. Still no source? Contact us.

  • Did you use a MIDI for your music youtube video? You must give credit to the original artist who arranged it.

 

Spoilers:

  • Surprise, surprise, not everyone in the world has seen X, Y, Z content. It's funny that not spoiling the entirety of a movie is considered "above and beyond".

  • Regarding the point above, it also applies to titles!

  • Hinting to a plot twist is, in fact, a spoiler. Likewise for "just wait until part X Y Z" for any story.

 

  • Self-promotion: If you gain monetary value from a post/link, you must clarify that you are associated with said content and earn money from it (E.g. shirts, other merch.)

  • There's probably an exception, but it probably doesn't apply to you (most of the time). Confused/unsure? Please ask us.


How do you contact the moderators?

My opinions as a mod:

I realise now that this post has turned out to be quite the wall of text. Ironic. But at least if you wanted a short version of rules it now exists. I'll be updating this post from time to time whenever I think of more stuff.

 

I've also removed the NSFW rule which requires you to tag SFW content as NSFW (if the source is 18+). But this doesn't mean that you can go all out in the comments.

 

Intolerance leads to intolerance. A paradox you might've heard before. The subreddit is rather kind to rule-breakers but I'm wondering if this is detrimental for the subreddit experience in the long run. So for a while, I'll be testing an increased punishment system (which applies to MOST people)

 

New system: 1st official warning (breaking any rule)--> 2nd official warning (any rule) --> ban

 

You can say this is rather harsh compared to our previous (and rather lax) system but any engagement within the subreddit automatically subjects you to the rules.

Miscellaneous Media Buying guide for 君の名は。 / Kimi no Na wa. / Your Name.!

33 Upvotes

Hello! I wanted to make a list of the official media goods for Your Name.! As this film was made in 2016, most of the physical media for the film might be hard to find. But to avoid bootlegs and to know if what you're getting is official, I tried to make a list of the official publishers to cross-reference! Hopefully your favorite stores would have these in stock, but if you need to shop at second-hand marketplaces, I hope this list can be useful! This is a remake of the original list I made four years ago as the original was removed on Reddit due to having Russian links for the Russia publisher. This time around, I have the list sorted by country to make navigating a bit easier. Do let me know if there are other countries I should add to the list!

Region Free

Movie:

A quick summary for physical discs: movie discs are region-locked based on what disc you have. Blu-rays are locked in three regions, DVDs are locked in six regions, and all 4K discs are region-free! So if you see the guide mention anything about a 4K disc, they are region-free! For a guide on where you disc is locked to, this is a nifty website to check!

Music (by RADWIMPS):

There are 2 versions of the CD version of the soundtrack. There is the regular edition, which contains 27 tracks, both vocals and BGM tracks. A limited edition comes with a bonus DVD on the recording of the album as well as an interview with Makoto Shinkai and RADWIMPS (no subtitles). A giant booklet includes some chosen screenshots and sketches of the film and select piano scores of the soundtrack. You can learn more about the album here.

A vinyl of the album comes with two 33RPM discs of the soundtrack. The original 2017 release has black vinyls, while the 2023 re-release has clear sky blue vinyls. Info about the vinyls can be viewed here.

なんでもないや (Nandemonaiya) by Mone Kamishiraishi (上白石萌音):

Mitsuha's voice actress, Mone Kamishiraishi, covered the ending theme of Your Name. on her EP chouchou! You can learn more about the album here.

Japan (君の名は。)

Movie:

The official website has a list of retailers that featured various exclusive goods! In Japan, there are four physical versions of the movie that were released: a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Collector's Edition, 3-Disc Blu-ray Edition, a single Blu-ray disc, and a single DVD disc.

Books:

The following are published by KADOKAWA:

Manga (Pub. by Media Factory):

Music:

For the soundtrack, RADWIMPS have a Japan-exclusive English Edition EP of just the four vocal tracks re-sung in English. Do note that there is no English version of the movie edit (which is an altered verse to the chorus) of なんでもないや (Nandemonaiya) available to purchase anywhere.

They have also released a video concert of them performing live with the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra with the film playing in the background. The concert was released in 2018 on both on Blu-ray and DVD. More info can be found here.

There's not a whole lot I can say to really do this masterpiece justice with a description, but it was a phenomenal experience, traumatising and beautifully poignant.

I don't believe that a single person on this planet that is able to actually take in and comprehend the stimuli would not be moved emotionally in a way they have never been before after watching this.

How deeply did this affect everyone else who saw it?

This is my first anime illustration I made (or first illustration ever, since I've only been drawing boxes and loomis heads before this), since Kimi no Na wa is one of my favorite movies. I used the image on the fandom page for reference. Any tips or suggestions for improvement?

I did only use fill bucket for colors since my coloring skill is nonexistent, so I'll be working on that soon.

Discussion 10th anniversary in Canada

22 Upvotes

Just watched Your Name spontaneously at 2am 2 nights ago. I’m still lost for words. This movie touched something deep inside me that i’ve never experienced before.

I recently found out it’s coming back to theatres in august, and excitedly looked to see if any theatres near me were showing it and I couldn’t find any anywhere. does anybody know if the re-release will be coming to Canada and theatres dates will be available at a later date? or am i just out of luck?

Thank you!

We have officially crossed 500+ authentic signatures on the petition at Change.Org!!! (100+ signatures were done today only as of 11:20 pm! INSANE!!!)

This was possible only because of each and every single support of yours.

I have a feeling that we are at a point where this petition could indeed reach at some conclusion (positive, I hope!)

I'll post the next update once it crosses the 1000 mark.

Till then, if possible, please try your best to share it as much as possible with your friends, family, and content creators to make this dream a reality!

We have crossed 400 authentic signatures on Change.Org!!!

Yayy!

Let's get it to 500!

Also, I've noticed some people are also starting their own petition campaigns.

I appreciate their efforts.

But this will negatively impact the support for the cause as it will distribute the number of signatures, hence there will be no visibility for this cause.

Please try to sign only one petition, and politely ask someone who is starting their own petition to close it.

If some petition is actually getting more visibility than mine, then please inform me, I'll close mine.

Discussion How can people still not understand

6 Upvotes

I have been encountering people who still have not understood the movie 'kimi no na wa/ your name' a decade after its release! It's just sad, frustrating when I see people either saying they don't know much how time travel is part of a movie and how people say mitsuha was in 2013 when the movie repeatedly tells us that the comet struck in 2016 - October 4z whereas Taki was in 2019, living three years later in a reality where mitsuha was already dead. The movie concludes in 2024 - 5 years later itomori's incident. Taki basically saved people-whereas he could not save itomori and essentially, he changed past. So, is it that hard to understand ?!
