If you loved El jardín de las palabras, try El tiempo contigo
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Makoto Shinkai, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to El jardín de las palabras, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El tiempo contigo is
Tokyo streets, rainy summer, neon lights reflected in wet pavement. A teenage boy finds work at a mysterious magazine, then meets a girl who can clear the sky. Makoto Shinkai grounds fantasy in everyday Japanese life.
