Why it matters
Ten years after the film's August 26, 2016 release, the municipality that supplied its scenery is handing out keepsakes printed with four specific locations, which gives visiting fans a set route from the station to the shrine.
Key Facts
- Hida City in Gifu Prefecture is distributing four free Your Name. bookmarks from Wednesday, August 26, 2026, while supplies last.
- The bookmarks carry scenery from Hida-Furukawa Station, Hida City Library, Ochiai Bus Stop, and Keta Wakamiya Shrine.
- Hida City Library is reproducing the notice and bookmarks that drew attention on social media at the time of the film's release.
- Your Name., directed by Makoto Shinkai, was released on August 26, 2016.
- Distribution at the Hida-Furukawa Machinaka Tourist Information Center runs from 9:00 to 16:00, one bookmark per person.
The designs show Hida-Furukawa Station, Hida City Library, Ochiai Bus Stop, and Keta Wakamiya Shrine. Hida City Library also reproduces the notice and bookmarks that drew attention on social media around the film's 2016 release.
The library half of the anniversary works differently from the tourist center. Hida City Library, one of the buildings that appears in the film, put a reproduced notice at its entrance and set out free bookmarks at a spot inside labeled for the film, next to the restroom. Both giveaways began on Wednesday, August 26 and run while stock holds.
Hida's pitch goes past the four locations. The city points visitors toward the white-walled storehouse streets along the Seto River in Hida-Furukawa and toward local food, with the commemorative bookmark as something to carry on the walk.
