Weathering with You

Movie · 2019

This beautifully animated Japanese fantasy follows a 16-year-old runaway in Tokyo who falls for a girl with the power to control the weather. It carries a PG-13 rating for a reason: it includes street fights, a handgun fired twice, suggestive references to sexual exploitation, and mild profanity — content firmly aimed at teens rather than young children.

Best suited for teens 13 and up who enjoy emotional anime romance; not a fit for young or primary-school children.
