Phenomenal animation and a really intriguing story help elevate this movie over so many others these days. The voice acting is great and despite a bit of a slow-down in the second half, things generally move along pretty quickly. While this doesn't quite reach the level of "Your Name", it's another excellent movie from Makoto Shinkai, who has quickly become one of my favorite anime directors.
