FINISHED

Good news for fans! The anime movie Weathering With You is a complete, standalone film. It was released as a single feature and is not part of an ongoing series or franchise, offering a conclusive viewing experience.

Watch Order

Since Weathering With You is a standalone movie, there isn’t a required watch order. You can jump right in and enjoy its beautiful story. However, some viewers who enjoy spotting hidden gems might consider watching another film by director Makoto Shinkai, Your Name., beforehand. Weathering With You features a few minor character cameos from Your Name., which serve as delightful Easter eggs rather than crucial plot points. Rest assured, watching one before the other won’t spoil either story, so feel free to choose whichever sparks your interest first!
