Many years before he wowed the anime world with the mega-hit Your Name in 2016, Makoto Shinkai explored the same themes of teenage love, longing, and separation across different realms in The Place Promised in Our Early Days (2004). Set in an alternative world where post-war Japan is divided up between the US and Russia, the story centers on three teenagers: two boys, Hiroki and Takuya, and a girl, Sayuri, living in the northern part of Japan (Honshu).
