She has had dreams where she lives as a teenage boy in Tokyo, but when she sees a message on her notebook asking `` Who are you ? '' and when her friends react at her strange behavior the previous day, she suspects something is going on. Similarly, high school boy Taki wakes up and finds he is Mitsuha, and his friends find his behavior to be just as strange. They realize they are able to swap bodies when they wake up, and start communicating with each other by leaving notes in Mitsuha 's notebook and memos on Taki 's phone. Mitsuha helps Taki develop a relationship with his coworker Miki, while Taki helps Mitsuha become popular in school. Taki, as Mitsuha, accompanies her grandmother and sister to leave the ritual alcohol kuchikamizake, made by Mitsuha, as an offering at the shrine on a mountaintop outside the town. The shrine is believed to represent the body of the village guardian god who rules human experiences and connections. Mitsuha 's latest note tells Taki about a comet expected to pass Earth on the day of her town festival. One day, Taki wakes up back in his body. After an unsuccessful date with Miki, he tries to call Mitsuha for the first time, but can not reach her, and the body switching ends. He decides to visit her hometown, but does not know its name, and his memories of it are fading, and even Mitsuha 's writings in his phone disappear. A restaurant owner in Hida recognizes the town from Taki 's sketch and tells him it was destroyed by a fragment of the comet. Taki finds Mitsuha 's name in the records of fatalities and discovers the date of the disaster. He realizes their timelines were separated by three years. Taki goes to the shrine to drink Mitsuha 's kuchikamizake, hoping to reconnect with her body and warn her of the comet strike. Through a vision, Taki discovers Mitsuha 's past and that she, having fallen in love with him, met his past self while trying to meet him personally. He wakes in her body on the morning of the town festival and reveals his identity to Mitsuha 's grandmother, who tells him the body switching is part of the Miyamizu family history as caretakers of the shrine. He convinces Mitsuha 's friends Tessie and Sayaka to help evacuate the village by cutting the power and broadcasting a false emergency alert. He realizes that Mitsuha must be in his body at the shrine and goes back to find her. Mitsuha wakes up in Taki 's body at the shrine. Although they sense each other 's presence, they are separated by three years. However, when twilight falls, they return to their own bodies and meet. They attempt to write each other 's names on their hands so they will remember each other, but twilight passes and Mitsuha disappears before she can write hers. As Mitsuha races back to town, her memories of Taki start to fade. Tessie tells Mitsuha to convince her estranged father, the mayor of Itomori, to evacuate the town. Running to her father 's office to confront him about evacuation, Mitsuha realizes that Taki wrote `` I love you '' on her hand instead of his name. The comet piece crashes to Earth, destroying Itomori. Taki wakes up in the morning of his own time, not remembering anything. Five years later, Taki has graduated from university and is searching for a job. He senses he is missing something important, and learns that inhabitants of Itomori survived by following the mayor 's order. He recognizes Tessie and Sayaka in a Tokyo restaurant, now engaged, but can not identify them. One day, Taki and Mitsuha recognize each other when their trains draw parallel. They disembark and search for one another, finally meeting on a staircase. Feeling as though they have met before, they ask for each other 's name.
