''[[Voices of a Distant Star]]'' is [[Makoto Shinkai]]'s first major work. This short film was released in 2003 and is considered one of the most poignant [[Anime]] romances around. However, it is better known for the the fact that Shinkai [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|scripted, drew, animated and produced the entire movie]] ''[[One-Man Army|on his own]]''.
 
Fourteen-year-old Nagamine Mikako Nagamine and her friend Noboru Terao had looked forward to attending high school together, but when humanity declared war on the mysterious alien force known as the Tarsians, she was drafted by the UN Space Army to serve as a [[Humongous Mecha|Tracer]] pilot in the task force assigned to the ''Lysithea''. Mikako leaves Noboru behind on Earth as the UN Forces pursue the Tarsians deeper into space.
 
During their separation, she communicates with Noboru via email, but as the fleet travels farther from the Earth, the transmission time grows increasingly longer, until eventually Noboru must wait years for any word that Mikako is even still alive.
