Byousoku 5 Centimeter (5 centimeters per second)

Warning, contains spoilers!

This is an anime movie by Shinkai Makoto, the director oh Hoshi no koe. The movie is made of three parts, all parts tell the story of two childhood friends, Tohno Takaki and Shinohara Akari, who fell in love but then had to live far apart and slowly lost contact. As usual for him, the anime is full of marvellous graphics and the first part also reminds of Hoshi no koe with Akari's letters telling the story.

All in all, I found the movie quite boring. I think one should be in a depressed emo mood to enjoy this anime more.
