FYI for "The Shinkai films" it's Your Name and 5 Centimeters Per Second.

The first is the second largest domestic box office ever for Japan (after Spirited Away) while also being critically acclaimed.

The latter is quite well received critically, but was less popular (without spoiling anything, the ending is somewhat divisive). Still at a 63 minute runtime it's well worth watching, IMO.

Also, I'll second the Wolf Children recommendation. Everybody in my family liked it, and that's rather rare for a film.

Thanks, Wolf Children is a good place to start I think!
