Uniqlo is teaming up with anime director Makoto Shinkai on a 7-piece collection. He is the director of the popular movie, Your Name, and has an upcoming release, Weathering With You.
The collection of 7 shirts is labelled subtly with the Japanese title of the movie the shirt is based on. There are 4 pieces based on Your Name and 3 pieces based on Weathering With You.
Most of the shirts are in black or white, with only 1 in a sky blue colour, which makes this a collection something everybody can enjoy.

There are 2 black shirts based on Your Name. One features the gorgeous pink skies that served as an aesthetic backdrop in the movie.
The other one features a small red cord that was a symbol in the movie. The red cord represents fates being tied together in Japanese Shintoism; in the movie, the main characters were entangled in an unlikely conundrum.
The other has a graphic of a notebook with the words “What is your name?” scribbled in Japanese. This simple image is packed with symbolism as identity is a prevailing theme in the movie, but we shall not spoil it for those who have yet to watch it.
Uniqlo Released
Director Makoto Shinkai’s new movie Weathering With You is set for an international release on 19 July 2019. Based on the trailer , the movie is about a boy and a girl who discover a secret about the world’s climate.
First up, the only blue-coloured shirt in the collection features an abstract pattern of the clouds and sky. We know the weather plays a significant part in the show, from both the title and trailer.
The adorable black kitten at the end of the trailer appears as a tiny graphic on a black t-shirt; anime and cat lovers will have to get this one.

Finally, a white t-shirt featuring the female lead suspended in mid-air. We have good reason to believe that physical laws will be bent a la Inception in his new anime, as director Shinkai loves to bend physics in his work.
Even if you are not an otaku, you have probably heard of the animated film, Your Name (Kimi No Na Wa). And you will probably see friends posting about Weathering With You in the next few weeks.
Your Name was a hit internationally, including in Engish-speaking countries like USA, and many Singaporeans raved about the intricately detailed animation and intriguing plot.
