A consistent work by Makoto Shinkai, but unfortunately, the music of this work did not cooperate with Tianmen.

Rain really can play with people's hearts.
Neither home nor school belongs to them. With this feeling, the two met again and again in the Garden of Words on rainy days. The two started talking, and it was all about ordinary things, but it reflected the true color of their lives... The distance between the two hearts was getting closer and closer.
The rainy season will eventually pass, just like who has switched the switch of the season, the rainy day always never comes. Only then did I realize that the reason for the two meeting was so harsh, but for the time being In the days of separation, with hope, the two hearts get closer.

Extended content: Manyoshu is Japan's earliest poetry collection, equivalent to China's "Book of Songs". The collected poems are from the 4th century to the middle of the 8th century. There have always been different opinions on the year when they were written and who compiled them, but most of them were written during the Nara period (AD 710-794). It is generally believed that the "Man'yoshu" was compiled and passed down by many people over many years, and was completed by the Otomo family leader (717-785 AD) in the second half of the 8th century. Later, it was corrected and approved by several people before it became the modern version.
