Yukari Yukino

The classical literature teacher at the high school Mitsuha attends. She is Yukari Yukino, the heroine and classical literature teacher from Shinkai's previous work, "The Garden of Words."

In this work, as of September 2013 when "Miss Yukino" appears, Yukari Yukino from "The Garden of Words" was living in Tokyo. However, her presence in Itomori in this film is left to the imagination of the viewers, as stated in the pamphlet. The character design by Tanaka is also praised on Twitter.

In her teaching scenes, "Manyoshu" (Volume 10, Poem 2240) is quoted, just as in "The Garden of Words," and it becomes one of the keywords of the film.
