 If you liked Kimi no Na wa. |  ...then you might like Tenki no Ko |
It's made by the same director, who pays attention to great details in movies. Plus, that other movie's characters make cameos here. Both movies have supernatural themes, and romantic relationships developing between their poster couples.
Love stories with a touch of supernatural. Both done by the same director and are awesome movies everyone should watch. They share the same universe(Tenki no Ko has cameos from Kimi no Na Wa's characters) which is irrelevant for the plot but fun fact to know.
Overall, Makoto Shinkai's films tend to complete themselves, since all the films are set in the same universe. Also, in the search of a visual experience at same level (spoiler: its very hard to find) or if you just want to watch a more deeper story, Kimi no Na Wa probably its the right choice to you
If you enjoy romance anime with exceptionally beautiful animation and a touch of mysticism, Kimi no Na wa and Tenki no Ko are excellent choices. Both films are created by the same author and share a universe, presenting stories that delve into a magical and superstitious atmosphere.

This is an obvious comparison as both share the same visual style and director, but Your Name and Weathering With You are well-animated anime films with themes of romance and the supernatural (the latter is even set in the same universe as the former, though it's not necessary to watch the former to enjoy the latter). Several other similarities are well-done musical montages (as well as RADWIMPS), family problems, an emotionally charged climax, and a touch of Japanese culture.
Other than the fact that these two were crafted by Makoto Shinkai and his team thus having the same art style and animation, they also contain the same formula and elements. Both revolve contain Shinto religion, both are love stories with supernatural aspects revolving around them, both contain extremely similar story/plot and pacing structure (especially during the climax), and both have RADWIMPS for the music.

Tenki no Ko takes a more cynical approach to the supernatural, showing what happens when the will of the gods/supernatural interferes in the lives of the modern age. Instead of going on a desperate love quest to look for his destined one, he finds her at the beginning, easy right? Wrong. Life is simply unfair, and much more punishing than that. Overall, I feel like the flow of the story was much more fluid than Kimi no Na Wa. However, I would say the emotional parts aren't as powerful. Granted, this movie works wonders as a sequel, occurring 1 year after Taki and Mitsuha get together. The movie

made by shinkai makoto animated by same studio similar animation heartwarming story
A transcendental love story. Your Name and Weathering With You are both great boy meets girl stories around two teenagers who are caught up in supernatural affairs. Your Name follows Taki and Mitsuha as they continuously body swap with one another leading to a journey to find one another. Weathering With You follows runaway Hodaka and 'sunshine girl' Hina on their journey of helping others via weather changing powers and finding a place to be. Both simple supernatural romance but are visual eye candy with amazing OST, made by the same director Makoto Shinkai.

In both: - there are two teenagers, which are main characters - director is Shinkai Makoto - tags are Drama, Romace, Supernatural, Slice of Life - amazing music by RADWIMPS - beautiful art
Both films have similar themes and pull at your heart strings. Both have beautiful visuals and musical scores.
To start, both movies are made by the same director and have a very similar art style. They're both absolutely stunning. Also, both of them follow a male+female duo who fall in love over the course of the movie. They also both revolve around the boy saving the girl from some supernatural happenings so she won't die.
Kimi no Na wa and Tenki no Ko are both created by Makoto Shinkai and Radwimps did both of the stunning sound tracks. ~ Both are romance, drama, and fantasy/supernatural ~ Both have really unique storylines ~ Really pretty visuals and amazing music ~ Both are really bitter-sweet and are full of feels ~ They also both have appearances from characters in other Shinkai works Overall they are both really amazing films that I think almost anybody could love.
Made by the same person, very similar character personalities. Art style is amazing in both.
They are both from the same director. Both of them start using the logic of the real world (meaning that everyone know that time traveling or super powers are not real for example) and then they start being illogical like allowing time traveling for example. In both of these anime the same band sings. Both will make you cry. How the story flows and everything else are really similar in both of these animes.
Both of the movies are directed by same person. And they both have stunning visual's with a very good story.

God tier animations and probably the best art styles you will see in animated movies. Both movies include superpowers as well as romance and some depression ⁀⊙﹏☉⁀
Very similiar theme and feeling. The characters from Kimi no Na wa also follow here a little.
Both of the movies are directed by Makoto Shinkai, and they exist in the same universe. Bunch of references to the previous movie, similarly beautiful scenery and animation. Both movies are awe-inspiring in similar ways, you will be immersed so greatly that the fictional world will become real and you will wish to share the experiences with the characters yourself. Both movies TRULY AMAZING.

Romantic tales are established through supernatural concepts, sharing a similar premise within an identical universe. In general, I would suggest simply pausing for a minute or two and allowing the film to take you in. The story in these movies is well done while being accompanied by a splendid soundtrack as the drift of its art style is presented. Almost all the people I know love these movies, and I'm sure you'll like them too! Give it a try and see for yourself!

The awaited sequel to Makoto Shinkai's highly praised and extremely well-received Kimi No Na Wa, or Your Name, Weathering With You has become another prominent movie in the early 2020 movie roster. I personally enjoyed Weathering With You more-so than Your Name, but that might just be my craziness. While both films' plots are debated frequently, the soundtrack of Weathering With You is objectively better, as RADWIMPS have simply outdone themselves in this new story. It might not matter much to you, but the soundtrack of a movie is very determinant in my overall enjoyment of it, and in some cases, can carry a movie
Both are about a mysterious event happening, also a developing relationship between a girl and a boy

Its another Makoto-goddamn-Shinkai movie, need more convincing? He manages to somehow perfect Your Name's visual fidelity, by some voodoo black magic make it even more detailed than before, with even the skidding of a shoe launching into a sprint off a floor slick from heavy rain looking perfect. RADWIMPS makes a return, orchastrating only another perfect fitting OST for Weathering With You. The only concern you should have is to not ride the tsunami of hype that Your Name brought over into your watching of Tenki No Ko. Its not a sequel, it wasn't written to be one, and should be respected as its own film. You'll want this

With the same studio and director, both movies give great detail to the scene and surroundings, making it really enjoyable to watch. The two stories are based on a supernatural idea witch carries the story of two students and the adversities they have to go through. If you've watched either and enjoyed it, the other is a sure must.

Same atmosphere, same director. Happen to be on the same page, but different timeline. Both about romance, both have some supernatural stuff.
This is probably the closest you are going to get if want something similar to Your Name. Its got the same artstyle, director, band doing the OST, and type of plot (romance/supernatural). A definite recommendation!

SImilar romance movies that deal with natural events. Two people who feel out of place find their place due to each other. Also, the animation quality is similar
The art styles of both movies are breathtaking, and they are directed by the same legend Makoto Shinkai.

Tenki no ko is similar to Kimi no na wa, as both have an amazing and complex plot, moments of tension and exciting scenes. Both were made by the same author, and that is why they take place in the same universe.
Another movie filled with emotions created by Shinkai sensei. If Your Name made you cry you will tear up watching this movie too.
report Recommended by AnirbanDRoy
Yes, this is quite obvious since both were written by our beloved Makoto Shinkai. In my opinion, "Your Name" outclasses "Weathering with You" since the latter has several plot holes, somewhat of a disturbing message (sacrifice), and an immature and irresponsible main character. HOWEVER, regardless it is still an amazing watch as the animation is breathtaking! Anyways, if you haven't watched either I strongly recommend. (Also, as a side note, watch "I want to eat your pancreas" if you haven't already:) )
The same developers. share a great graphic section for their time, both have a great soundtrack and have a decent story.

Romance, wholesome, both about how protagonists went through troubles to find each other again
I recommend this anime and Tenki no Ko because they are pretty similar exactly since the director is the same person. At the end of the anime of Kimi no Na wa it really gives you excited vibes and makes you want the director to make movie 2, following on from that. It’s the same with Tenki no Ko. They are so enjoyable and entertaining. That’s why I recommend these anime’s and the similarities. Please don’t criticise or start a argument over things I’ve said or spelling because it’s not necessary. Thank you!
when it comes to animation both movies have exactly the same awe-inspiring visual style amd even the characters feeels the same .
Tenki no Ko and Kimi no Na wa both have the same director. This results in almost exactly the same style and feel in both movies. The plots are also very similar. They both depict a teenage romance with some supernatural elements thrown in to spice it up. They are both near the same length, have some of the most gorgeous scenery in anime, and, of course, the animation slaps in each one.
Same director, same studio, magical songs by Radwimps.

Both of the animes were directed by the same person, which explains the similarities between them. They have the same stylistics with great soundtracks. The stories are both simple but intriguing and the character’s progress at the same speed. Plus the main characters from Kimi no Na wa make cameos in Tenki no Ko.

Not only do the movies share the same director but also the soundtrack is written by the same band (RADWIMPS) and the characters Mitsuha and Taki appear in Tenki no Ko as a short cameo. Both movies are great romances and have led me to tears.

*Tenki no ko* also known as *Weathering with you* is an movie like *Your Name* (Kimi no na wa) It has the same like theme, and it has an interesting story, it also revolves around the story of *Your Name* you will find it yourself in the movie.
It's also a Shinkai film but in my opinion, Kimi no Na Wa surpasses Tenki no Ko by a lot.
