What's left behind the scenes
- Tono's surname is written in kanji meaning 'distant' and 'field', which echo the theme of remoteness and endless snowfields. Akari's name is written with characters meaning 'bright' and 'ri', however, in Japanese there is also the word 'akari', meaning 'glow, light'. Kanae's name is written with a combination of kanji that can be translated as 'a flower just beginning to bloom', and it also sounds similar to the verb 'kanau' – 'to come true' (of wishes).
- The title of the first part of the film, 'Excerpt about Blooming Cherry Blossoms', coincides with the title of a 1970 book by Toemon Sano, a 16th-generation Japanese gardener.
- In the film, Akari and Tono meet a kitten named Chobi – a character from Makoto Shinkai's early film 'She and Her Cat'. Mimi, Chobi's friend, is also mentioned in their conversation. Chobi also appears in Shinkai's film 'Beyond the Clouds'.
- Many landscape and everyday scenes were created based on photographs of real locations in Japan.
- The director explains his choice of the song "One more time, one more chance" performed by Masayoshi Yamazaki as the film's theme song by the fact that it is familiar to all Japanese people, and additional associations will help convey what is left unsaid and create a complete impression of the film.
- Initially, Makoto Shinkai intended to film about ten five-minute stories, unconnected by a common plot.
- Every letter from Akari begins with a description of the weather – this is a Japanese tradition when writing letters.
- The Japanese school system comprises three levels: elementary school (grades 1-6), middle school (grades 7-9), and high school (grades 10-12). The grade numbering is not continuous, so Tono and his friends are called 'freshmen' at the stadium – they are in the first grade of middle school.
- In one of the shots, a Kotobus – a character from Hayao Miyazaki's anime "My Neighbor Totoro" – is present as a magnet.
- The surname Tono is written in kanji as 'distant' and 'field,' which echo the motif of remoteness and endless snowy fields. The name Akari is written with the characters 'bright' and 'ri,' but in Japanese, there is also the word 'akari' meaning 'glow, light.'
