RADWIMPS’ classic and popular songs (111–120)
Night at the ryokanRADWIMPS

Even after returning to the inn, Taki continues reading the book he borrowed from the library.
However, he can no longer even remember Mitsuha’s name.
At some point, he falls asleep without realizing it.
Then he wakes to Mitsuha’s voice saying, “Taki, don’t you remember?” The song playing in this scene conveys his feelings—trying to recall something but unable to grasp it clearly—through its lonely tones.
RADWIMPS' masterpieces and popular songs (121–130)
The Vanished TownRADWIMPS

This song was also used at a crucial turning point in the story, wasn’t it? Having seized the final clue, Taki heads to Itomori with a mix of hope and anxiety.
There, he comes face-to-face with the fact that a comet fell three years earlier, begins to doubt his memories of switching places with Mitsuha, and we see him grappling with disbelief and reflecting on the time he’s lived up to now.
The unbelievable sight of that place and the heartrending moment are laid bare by this piece.
Persuading the MayorRADWIMPS

The scene where Taki goes to persuade Mitsuha’s father.
He looks like Mitsuha on the outside, but inside he’s become one with Mitsuha—sharing her worry for herself and her love for this village.
You can feel it even from the words of the mayor—who is also Mitsuha’s father—when he says, “Who are you?” The music in this scene flows quietly and poignantly, and even while he’s switched with Mitsuha, Taki himself brings his own feelings to the forefront.
traces of prayerRADWIMPS

RADWIMPS is a rock band that captivates fans with film scores that closely reflect each work and band songs with a one-of-a-kind personality.
Their second indie single, “Kiseki,” is striking for its rapidly shifting ensemble.
Its message, portraying the joys and pains of living, likely prompts many listeners to reflect, overlaying it with their own lives and feelings.
With hooky melodies and arrangements that linger in the ear, it’s a rock tune that conveys the meaning of life.
Autumn FestivalRADWIMPS

It’s a poignant song that conveys Mitsuha’s feelings.
She herself set up Taki and Okudera-senpai’s date.
And yet, for some reason, Mitsuha breaks into tears.
Not even knowing why, she suddenly chops off her hair.
This scene captures Mitsuha’s adorable emotions and hints at the turning point her life is about to take.
The next night she heads out to the autumn festival, and a comet falls from the sky.
The quiet piano sound gradually expands and then fades away beautifully…
A mysterious sound resonates in the heart.
Itomori High SchoolRADWIMPS

This is a scene of Mitsuha going about her ordinary days at Itomori High School.
The lightly bouncing piano sound really reflects her personality, doesn’t it? You can feel the simple, joyful school life.
It’s the root of her happiness.
It seems like the kind of song that would commonly play in a scene like this, but it’s a little different—that’s the charm of RADWIMPS.
The Invisible TwoRADWIMPS

Contrary to their feelings for each other, at such a crucial moment they can’t see one another.
Taki calls out Mitsuha’s name near the sacred rock.
Mitsuha calls Taki’s name too, but although they can hear each other’s voices, they can’t see each other.
It’s a scene that leaves viewers frustrated and heartbroken at the fact that the two who once spent such joyful days together can’t even touch, and makes us anxious about what will happen next.
The ethereal tones of the music were especially memorable.
