Makoto Shinkai is a Japanese director of animation and formed graphic designer.His favorite anime is Castle in the Sky by Hayao Miyazaki and Shinkai Makoto has been called "the New Miyazaki" in several reviews. He was borned in the Nagano, Japan. He studied Japanese literature at Chou. I heard that he produced the drama too. But, I'm not interested in the Japanese drama. So, I'll skip that.

2. The Garden of Words

Latest, I saw one movie called 'The Garden of Words'.

'The Garden of Words, 2013'

I like this movie's drawing and pictures. Person who draw the all drawing is Shinkai Makoto, Japanese movie directer. He describing every stuff detail and beautiful. Those are looks like real one. He used the green color for the lines. It's hard think that use green color in the drawing.

In this movie, there's two main character. A boy's name is Akizuka Takao. He was interested in making the shoes. But he didn't have his father and his mother was get out the home with her new boyfriend. He is high school student. When it's rain he went to the Shinjuku Public Park. A woman's name is Yukino Yukari. She was cover at many secret. Takao didn't know her name and why she was came to Shinjuku Public Park.

One raining day, they met in the Shinjuku Public Park. They didn't know each other. But they met every raining day, so they be friend.

3. '5 Centimeters per Second'

When I saw this movie, I started found another movie by Shinkai Makoto. I heard this title before. I didn't see this movie, but I want to see. My friend told me some information about the Sinkai Makoto. "All the movies by Shinkkai Makoto are ended with sad ending. I heard that he has kind of phobia about the love." I don't know it's true or not.
