Why is "Weathering With You" rated "Adults, you really know everything"?

I think it’s because of different feelings. The movie has two conflicts that occur on completely different levels at the same time. One is only between the male and female protagonists, about whether to sacrifice the heroine and save the world. In fact, the outside world is completely unaware of this, and there is no Give them any moral pressure; the other is the conflict between the adult world and the male and female protagonists. The police are looking for the male protagonist who has run away from home and the female protagonist who takes care of her younger brother alone, in an attempt to get them to return to daily life.

So when the male protagonist shouted "You don't understand anything!" in the police car, the audience clearly felt the obvious dislocation between the two conflicts - the adult world's ignorance of the inner struggle of young people, and at the same time It is also senseless; young people's shouts appear as meaningless noise in the adult world, and they have never even happened.

From the perspective of the adult world, the protagonist's troubles are childish and ridiculous (adults don't care if you save the world, they just want you to go back to school), but to the protagonist, it is the same as life important. Therefore, there is a very eye-catching prop in the movie - a gun. This element is very abrupt for Makoto Shinkai's movie. However, it is this gun that adds a very powerful force to the protagonist's choices - you should not think that I am just a kid wandering around, this is a matter of life and death, I can die for this, or I can Kill you. As Baudrillard said, "The real key is irresponsibility, the resistance of those people who have been deprived of the right to speak or have never had the right to speak."

If the film's "irresponsible" theme constitutes It is a rebellion against the tradition of "ordinary teenagers cannot escape their fate and choose to save the world after gaining superpowers". Then when this "irresponsibility" is not only expressed in the form of passive escape, it eventually becomes a positive and real , life-threatening actions, this is "irresponsibility" at the cost of my life, and its radicalism goes far beyond what we can imagine in animated movies.

Shinkai's political radicalism also manifests itself in the protagonist's refusal to reconcile his answers to key questions. When asked to choose between the world and his lover, the hero's attitude is highly consistent with the leftist's consistent position: If the normal operation of the world is based on such cruel sacrifices, then I would rather not! More radical is the protagonist's second answer - when he is faced with the question "The world will not be in chaos/Tokyo will be flooded", he shouts the most shocking key line in the movie, - " Then let’s make it confusing!” So I think it's because of different feelings.
