Line 15:
** Your loved one goes missing and you never get closure even years later.
** Your loved one apparently runs away from home and refuses to explain in any detail.
** The [[Invisible to Normals]] nature of the worm, while obviously fantastic, reflects a very real possibility overlapping with [[Paranoia Fuel]] that danger could be lurking around the corner at any moment with you not knowing until it's too late.
** You lose someone right before your eyes, helpless to do anything.
* [[The Alleged Car]]: Serizawa's fancy-looking convertible doesn't have a roof that can close properly, which becomes troublesome when it starts raining.
Line 38 ⟶ 39:
* [[Glowing Eyes of Doom]]: Daijin demonstrates this when it appears in darkness.
* [[The Gump]]: In an antagonist variant, the worm's escapes are responsible for various historical disasters. The [[wikipedia:1923 Great Kantō earthquake|1923 Great Kantō earthquake]] is explicitly said to be one of those.
* [[Heroic Lineage]]: Sōta is the latest in a line of Closers tasked with closing doors across Japan before the worm can escape.
* [[Homage]]:
** {{spoiler|Suzume falling from the Tokyo sky}} resembles the similar occurrence in ''[[Weathering with You]]''.
** {{spoiler|Sōta and Suzume parting ways at a train station at the end is very similar to Takaki and Akari doing the same}} in ''[[5 Centimeters per Second]]''.
* [[Implausible Deniability]]: Suzume's attempts to explain to Tamaki where she's going get increasingly thin.
* [[In a Single Bound]]: Both chair!Sōta and Daijin make blatantly superhumanly massive jumps.
Line 73 ⟶ 75:
*** Both Mitsuha and Suzume have epiphanies that lead to them realising that their seemingly fantastic experiences were [[Real After All]].
*** A phenomenon that allows {{spoiler|people separated by time to interact}} plays an important role.
*** A shot of a sliding train door is identical to how that's depicted in the earlier film.
* [[Slice of Life]]: The main part of the film opens this way, starring the journey of an [[Ordinary High School Student]] biking to school. Fantastic sequences of closing the doors are also contrasted with mundane life with the people that Suzume encounters.
* [[Soft Water]]: Justified in the case of {{spoiler|Suzume falling from the Tokyo sky as Daijin takes on a giant form that covers and cushions the impact.}}
