For some reason I relate to and sympathise with Kanae a lot more than Takaki or Akari. She is strong and wilful at the same time as genuinely insecure about herself. In many ways I have yet to see a better portrayal of a female glorified extra. I hate the fact that shinkai treated her like shit and did not even give her a proper closure that she completely deserved. She exists solely to highlight Takaki's own rapid breakdown, yet I hate Takaki for not noticing her blatantly obvious cry for some form of reciprocation. He did not even comfort her when she was crying, for chrissakes. I genuinely felt sick and hurt as she gave her last monologue about unrequited love while crying in fetal position.
Sorry for ranting, just wanted to get this off my chest
Tl;Dr kanae is best girl

Now this is a best girl.

I hope she found a nice surfer bf while the other faggot suffered alone in his tiny Tokyo apartment.

Manga had her going off to Tokyo to find Takaki. She manages to find his number but is too afraid to talk. Last scene is her back on the island where Takaki comes back, they both turn around and look at each other in silence. THE END
she's like 12 years old, nigga. she'll get over it.

It seems you don't still read manga yet. The story in manga will reveal the conclusion of Kanae. So don't be sad after watched anime only.

Yeah I just read this post >>149823353
Sounds nice
So, what else does the manga offer? Is it really good?
Shit film, overrated
Fuck off
>>149823478
Yeah, we can hope she at least learnt her lesson not to go after soulless blind idiots

>getting worked up over the blown up shitty romance of a bunch of stupid kids
>getting worked up over muh love from a muh love film from a muh love director
Shinkai sure knows his market. Funny how deviating a bit from his muh love formula and focusing on more important things got him a popular film recently.
>>149823353
Well that sounds like a shit conclusion that goes againts the theme of the movie to be honest. She should have moved on.

Sorry man, not gonna argue. I enjoy a love story once in a while, and this film was really well-made. So bite me, I'm hardly the worst person here.
Enjoy your life

Actually she made the same mistake takaki made, and got stuck in the past. Its completely consistent with her previous actions and monologues.
At least the manga gives us hope that they may be happy together
Shinkai is one of the most overrated shit anime director ever. His movies are aimed at the normalfags. Anyone liking his shit should be raped.

What's the matter? Got triggered by how successful shinkai is compared to your favourite horse-dicked shota harem artist?

Cosmonaut was the best part and the sadest.
Normally a train is the thing that ruins your confession, here it was a fucking space rocket launch to Pluto. ;_;
