[spoil] To Takaki-kun.
How are you?
When we made that date, we never foresaw how snowy it would be today, did we? It looks like the train is late. That’s why I’ve decided to write this while I’m waiting for you.
There is a stove in front of me so it’s warm here. As always, I keep some writing paper in my bag so that I can write my letters at any time. I’m thinking of handing this to you later. So don’t arrive too early or I will be very much troubled. Please don’t hurry, take your time coming here.
It’s been a long time since we last met. It’s been eleven months. That’s why I’m actually feeling a little nervous just now. What will we do if we don’t recognise each other when we meet? But this place is so small compared to Tokyo so I don’t think that could possibly happen. But no matter how much I try to imagine what you look like in school uniform or soccer clothes, you seem like a stranger to me.
Hmmm, what else should I write? Oh, I know. I will start by giving my thanks. I will write down the feelings I had for you that I couldn’t convey properly. When I transferred to Tokyo in primary four I was really glad you were there. I was happy we became friends. If you weren’t there, school would have been much harder for me.
That’s why I really didn’t want to transfer to another school and part with you. I wanted to attend the same junior high school with you and grow up together. It was always what I had wished for. I’ve gotten used to my school now (so please don’t worry too much about me) but everyday, I would think to myself many times, “How much better would it be if Takaki-kun was here?”
I’m very sad that you will soon be moving to a much distant place. Even though we’re separated in between Tokyo and Tochigi, I have always thought to myself that, “Takaki-kun is within my reach.” I could always have taken the train right away to go see you. But this time, going to the other side of Kyushu is a bit too far for me.
From now on, I will have to learn how to live on well by myself, even though I’m not confident that I can. But I have to. Both you and I have to.
There’s another thing that I must tell you. I’m writing this down in this letter just in case I can’t say it out to you.
I love you. I can’t remember when I fell in love with you but very naturally, I had fallen in love with you before I knew it. The first time I met you, you were a strong and kind boy. You always protected me.
Takaki-kun, I’m sure you will be all right. No matter what happens, I know you will grow up to be a fine kind adult. No matter how far you go, I will always love you.
Please, please remember that.[/spoil]
[spoil]Và bức thư mà takaki bị thổi bay ở epi 1
The last page of his love letter wrote:
I don’t really know what it means to grow up. But one day, if I ever meet Akari again by coincidence, I want to have become someone that I’m not ashamed of being.
This I promise you, Akari.
I have always loved you.
Please take care. Farewell.[/spoil]
[spoil]He walks on onto a crossing just as the warning bells began to ring as if marking the nostalgic time of Spring. He passes a girl at a crossing and at that moment, a light pranced in his heart. He stopped at the other side and thought strongly that if he turned around, she would be doing the same. Takaki turned round slowly and so did she. Their eyes met. His heart and memories stirred just as the train rushed past along the Odakyu Line and cut off their line of sight.
As the train continued to run by, Takaki wondered if she would still be there afterwards but, it didn’t matter. It would be enough of a miracle if it had really been “her”. After the train passed by, he makes up his mind that he will move on. [/spoil]
Đoạn phỏng vấn makoto về cái end của 5cm1second:
[spoil]In episode one “Oukashou” we see young love has been realised between two people but this is hindered by the distance between them. Then in episode two we see via some indirect scenes of how they are living separate lives. I thought we would see Akari making an appearance but she never had any lines so in episode three, I was looking forward to a happy ending but it was a very disappointing one and didn’t really appear to end the story. Did you ever prepare a happy ending for the movie?
A few laughs at this one.
The ending seen in the movie was the one that had been decided upon before production but, along the way Shinkai had thought of changing it. However, he felt it wasn’t possible and in the end, kept to his original decision. The main reason Shinkai did this was because he felt it would have ended like a fairy tale where the story is wrapped up nicely. On the other hand, he didn’t want to end it that way because he knows that there must be some other important things that await both Takaki and Akari in the future which the viewers can think about for themselves as the two continue living their lives.[/spoil]
