If you loved Weathering with You, try The Garden of Words
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
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 Weathering with You, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Garden of Words is
Shinjuku garden on a rainy morning, sound of raindrops on umbrellas, a sketchbook lies open. A young shoemaker and a mysterious woman cross paths repeatedly, their bond growing with each rain-soaked encounter. Makoto Shinkai tenderly observes fleeting connections.
