They make a plan to find the answer at a fireworks display, while classmate Nazuna schemes to run away with whoever wins a swimming race at the pool.”

    Any word on whether Your Name will be available for download in the UK soon? I'd rather not have the clutter of another DVD, but if it's a choice between that and not seeing the film again, there's no choice!
