In the movie, Taki's grandmother said that the dead will return to the land from the sky along the smoke of the Obon, and reunite with the living on the ground.
It is a common belief among people of almost every nation and race that the souls of the dead ascend into the sky.
I don't know if Hina had seen her dead mother when she was in the sky, and Taki's mother, the deceased who she had brought from the earth to burn incense.

Speaking of which, prayer alone can change the mind of the weather. How can such a good thing happen? At least human beings on the ground should not be able to do it, so Yang Cai still belongs to the world of heaven and clouds, not the world of earth and dust. When she was on the earth, the face of the sky was angry and brought down disasters: heavy rain, floods, lightning, as if to warn and force someone from the private realm to return to the kingdom of clouds; she saw so many dead souls in the kingdom of heaven, but they could not return to the earth. , Have you ever understood the truth that the deceased never returned to the earth through smoke?
Maybe she looks back at Tokyo after she left, the long-lost sunshine and the original summer return to the earth, maybe she can understand: it is not impossible, but unbearable. Once the undead and elves who do not belong to the dust world escape privately into the world, they will inevitably lead to the scourge of heaven. Who can bear to suffer such a catastrophe for the beloved who is left in the world? Who can bear the pressure and accusations that brought disaster and overturned the whole city? It's no wonder that there are so many undead in the sky who linger in love and sigh and can't bear the lower realm.
It sounds very domineering, of course, the deceased have their reasons for not returning to the world, but why can't Yang Cai stay on the earth?
But grace and the loss of grace are both domineering. Originally, where did life come from is a potential question that every serious work must answer. Most people believe that fate is given by God and finally received by God, and this work is also like this. Therefore, Yang Na's life, Hodaka's life, and everyone's life in the movie were originally conferred by God. Even the "birth" in the lyrics "I was born into this world with nothing" itself implies that direction of the source of life. Just as birth is undeniable to a born, so the grace of life cannot be denied; neither can death be denied, and therefore the loss of grace cannot be denied. In the beginning and end of the gain of the first grace and the loss of the last grace, only redemption is caught in the middle of life and becomes the eternal theme of mankind. Western culture believes that redemption is the relationship between gods and people, while Japanese culture believes that redemption is the relationship between people. In the play, Hodaka and Yangcai have a relationship of redemption, and it is also an eternal setting in the whole world series of juvenile manga. However, the only change is that this time the protagonist did not choose to redeem the world. "Whatever the weather, let it be It's good to go crazy." It doesn't matter if the whole Tokyo is flooded, because the teenagers no longer worry about sunny days and summer never coming, they have chosen to live under the punishment of heaven.
However, the problem is not so simple to solve. Although teenagers can choose their own way of life, what about the people of Tokyo? They were also implicated in the choices of the teenagers. Yang Cai also expressed such concern when she fell, "But if I go back, the rain will continue to fall again."
The oppression of the dragon gods flashing in the rain clouds over Tokyo is so strong that either the city or the people are sacrificed. Is it important to preserve Tokyo, the essence of Japanese civilization, or to preserve Japan's conscience and not let an innocent girl die in the city? Yang Na looked at the sleeping beloved boy on the night she went to Heaven, and she may have thought of the answer to this question a long time ago: the live TV station of the fireworks festival has long been aware of the existence of the sunny girl, and Japanese monks and folklorists must have It's easy to guess that if you hand over the Sunny Maiden, you can get back to Tokyo Tianqing. As long as someone from the news agency or the government asks a folklore expert for consultation, everyone in Tokyo will immediately know that the Sunny Maiden is the key to stopping disasters and calming the rain. Then the scene will only be more ugly, not the most ugly.
So she chose to take the initiative to sacrifice, rather than drag down her relatives and lovers after the secret was exposed. But now the lover who was found in the sky was brought back to the world, and the angry torrential rain came to Tokyo again as promised, but what should I do?

The citizens of Tokyo silently accepted the life under the disaster. Although the roads are full of stagnant water, the subway is no longer passable, the shops and houses below the third floor are all abandoned, and the power station submerged in the water does not know when it will be rebuilt, but even so, People seem to have accepted Tokyo, which has become an archipelago in the water, so smoothly, but no one has ever thought of it, and even put forward a sentence: Just hand over the Haruna.
The option to betray the Sunny Miko never seemed to exist, among the Tokyoites' options. Even if Tokyo is about to sink.
Yes, the rain is still falling. Tokyo is about to sink, no longer a city of grace. The boys sank with Tokyo, hugging each other, and never betrayed.
I like this movie, I like the clean teenagers in animated films, and I like a clean conscience. Only the conscience of "you are more important than the world" is salvation.
