Capturing pieces from such lauded works as 5 Centimeters Per Second (2007) and Voices of a Distant Star (2003), this is a must-have for fans of animated artwork. Shinkai, while known for his heartfelt stories, is possibly more admired for his rich and detailed art which often overwhelm viewers forcing them into fantastic worlds of wonder. A Sky Longing For Memories collects more than 100 of Shinkai's art cells from his most popular works and then closes off with interviews from the internationally renowned director and his staff.
