Your Name - Shinjuku Station Revisit

The last location seen in Makoto Shinkai's Your Name I revisited this time was Shinjuku Station and some of the areas around it.



Image from Your Name - 01m17s


This is inside the JR part of the station at platform 13 and 14 which was under renovations while I was here.




Image from Your Name - 20m15s


Yunika Vision screens outside Yamada Denki Shinjuku Higashiguchi-kan (Not to be confused with Yamada Denki Shinjuku Nishiguchi-kan).




Image from Your Name - 32m00s


I also got some pictures of this place from the last time I visited.




Image from Your Name - 95m24s


The weather was much worse then.




Image from Your Name - 20m22s


This is at Shinjuku Station South Exit. The shop here is called Ladurée and not Patissier like in the movie.




Image from Your Name - 20m26s


It's a confectionery in real life as well though.




Image from Your Name - 20m27s


The decorations on the wall on the left are similar, but not exactly the same.




Image from Your Name - 20m32s


Taki is walking towards east here.




Image from Your Name - 20m36s


More wall decorations.




Image from Your Name - 20m39s


Full view of the south exit area to the left in this picture.


I couldn't get the whole view in the same picture, so here's another with more of the buildings to the right. This picture is taken from an overpass going from the south exit area to Shinjuku Southern Terrace.




Image from Your Name - 19m59s


View towards the Shinjuku Southern Terrace area. You can't see the overpass here, but it's located in the bottom right here.




The Starbucks at Shinjuku Southern Terrace I got a picture of the last time I was here, was now under renovation.




Image from Your Name - 96m58s


The insides have been changed now, so it doesn't look like it did in the movie.




Image from Your Name - 74m13s


I got this picture outside the Odakyu Department Store on the west side of Shinjuku Station. I'm not sure it's the exact same location, but it's similar to the screenshot above.




Image from Your Name - 02m23s


Some of the skyscrapers in Shinjuku. On the left here is the Shinjuku Center Building and on the right the Sompo Japan Building.




Image from Your Name - 93m34s


Taki job hunting outside the Shinjuku Center Building.




Image from Your Name - 97m01s


Image from Your Name - 97m05s


There's an overpass in front of the Sompo Japan Building. I've marked a path from the Shinjuku Center Building to the overpass in the map below.




Image from Your Name - 97m07s


Taki on the overpass towards the end of the movie.




Image from Your Name - 97m10s


Where a certain someone also walks across the overpass.




Image from Your Name - 97m15s


They pass each other here.




Image from Your Name - 97m18s


Taki seems to notice who it is.




Image from Your Name - 97m20s


Reverse angle.




Image from Your Name - 97m28s


She also seems to notice.




Image from Your Name - 97m29s


But Taki has already continued walking away.




Image from Your Name - 97m36s


So they don't meet up, similar to what happens in a certain other Makoto Shinkai movie.




Image from Your Name - 99m29s


Taki spots her again later on though, and runs out of Shinjuku Station South Exit.




Image from Your Name - 99m33s


He frantically looks around.




Image from Your Name - 99m33s


And then runs towards east. After this he ends up at Suga Shrine of course.
