Whisper of the Heart - Official Trailer

With aspirations to one day become a writer, Shizuku can't help but notice that the name Seiji Amasawa appears on every one of the books she borrows from the library.

Through a series of curious and magical incidents, she comes to meet Seiji and discovers he has dreams of becoming a famous violin maker in Italy. While their life-long goals pull them in two different directions, Shizuku and Seiji are determined to remain true to their strong feelings for one another.

the fact that he read most of the books in the library so that she'll notice him someday, oh my heart.

[mohameddiarra]

Why is no one talking about the massive existential crisis themes in this film. Not knowing what you’ll do with your life in the future, forcing yourself to pursue something even though you’re scared you might have made the wrong decision. Regretting to not be the kid you used to be, that had everything figured out.
This movie really captures a lot of young people’s anxieties, including mine. It’s so real.

the most underrated character was seiji's grandpa. his encouragement and bit about finding your own gem is something every young person needs to hear in their life.

[LuRybz]

This movie is extremely good. So simple, still so special, oh the feelings.

can a cat lead me to my Seiji Amasawa pls

[annawong]

Whisper of the Heart is one of those movies that has fondness slowly and quietly growing in you. The director, Yoshifumi Kondo, was brilliant in story telling.
The part about finding the gem in yourself, and not to give up when you still have tons of work on polishing is soft spoken. Whenever I felt like giving up, that gentle voice and imagery would encourage me to go on.

I know this movie is Japanese. But this really represents how beautiful Japan was. It is a typical japanese style like the city, school, uniform, bus, cicadas, cats, bike, river and more. If you wanna watch a typical japan style this movie is for you.

when trailers sucked and movies were good

[rosie]

the most underrated ghibli film 🥺 and my favourite. i could watch it over and over and never get bored

[absentiambient]

This and Only Yestarday are one of my favorite Ghibli films because there's nothing epic happening on screen, just a "slice of life". These beautiful & pure moments on the screen felt like they're my own memories, even any of this never happened to me.

[fionaautumn]

I just can't get over how great this movie is. 😭

[kurtlim]

the ending of this movie left me hanging... BIG TIME!

[maxandmin]

The best moments for me:

1. When Shisuko sang while Seiji was playing violin, then the whole team came along.

-I was giggling the whole time 🤗

2. The end credits.

- can't describe exactly but it was really heartwarming

[Anniegrazie]

It makes me feel nostalgic about the memories I never had. After watching, everything about the people in this movies still lingers on.

[cvbuy]

Where can you find a Seiji Amasawa? I need one please.

[DeviemTwen]

Remember kids:
If you’re only able to direct one film in your whole career, make it a masterpiece like Whisper Of The Heart.

[nathanbroke]

One of the best films I've watched thus far.. captures the essence of everyday life excellently.. the emotions, the feels, the amount of details in the animation, the realisticness, everything is just wonderful... :)

[hoshinoais]

When the cats there I was like Me:OMG IT CANT BE I....IT IS ITS BARON FROm CAT :O

[jamgs]

“The cat that’s connect the two lovers” so sweet there

[hellothere]

My favourite line:
"HEY SHIZUKU! SOMEONE WANTS TO SEE YOU, IT'S A GUY!!"
