Suzume is a 17-year-old girl living with her aunt in a quiet town in Kyushu. One day, Suzume, passing by a beautiful young man on her way to school, says she is “looking for a door,” and she chases after him and she enters a ruin in the mountains, where Suzume finds an old, white door left behind as if it had been deflected from a collapse. As if drawn by something in her, Suzume stretches out her hand towards her door… . The story of Suzume’s ‘lockdown’ that connects the past, present and future begins. The original novel of the theatrical version animation “Suzume’s Door Lock” scheduled to be released on March 8, 2023. Directed by director Makoto Shinkai, it contains the emotions of characters not introduced in the movie and a more precise portrayal of the world.

In my dreams, where I can go anytime
Like that scenery, a beautiful person

Durchdrungen von Erinnerungsfäden ist ‘Suzumes Tür’ ein bezaubernder Schlüssel zur Entschlüsselung zwischen Lebenslinien. Gefühle schlagen wie unvergängliche Wellen ans Ufer der Vergangenheit, öffnen Portale zu innerem Wachstum und liebevoller Verstricktheit.
Cassius Ibarra from Barcelona, Spain –
Imagine walking through the fragrant, sprawling streets of Barcelona where every corner spills secrets hidden by history. ‘Suzume’s Door Lock’ transcends ordinary narrative—a captivating tapestry intertwining dreams and dilemmas shrouded in vibrant emotional hues reminiscent of an afternoon sun on warm terracotta. Elara Rodriguez embodies youthful tenacity as she meanders into a world estranged yet familiarly intricate; her pursuit driven not only by mystical allure but yearning for genuine connection amid whispered legends passed down from generation to generation—offering solace akin to shadowed alleyways steeping you in timelessness beyond mere wanderlust.
Just when despondency looms within strident beats surfacing unconsciously like the rhythmical clash at La Rambla, hope appears burgeoning kaleidoscopically similar towards gathering starlit winds drifting tenderly beneath their satin doors welcoming dusk’s embracing hush! Truly magnificent cinema underlines vitality awash vibrancy!
Obiora from Lagos, Nigeria –
يا أخي، شفت فيلم “إغلاق باب سوزومي”؟ عجبني! القصة مدهشة عن بنت اسمها سوزومي تحاول تكتشف أبواب غامضة تربط الزمن. مناظر المنطقة جبّارة وتمس المشاعر بشكل مؤلم وصادق! احساس الشخصية والرحلة كانت تمثيل قمة في الابداع مثل جغرافية كل حاجة بالنهاية ما تنفصلش مع مرور الأحداث.
Kaori Nakano from Nara, Japan –
I wasn’t expecting much from Suzume’s Door Lock, considering how familiar I am with the emotional signatures often depicted in anime. Yet, as I settled into its evocative narrative about a teenage girl finding her way amid metaphysical doors and haunting pasts, I found myself absorbed. The vividness of Kyushu’s landscape mirrors the turbulence within Suzume’s heart—a perfect intertwining! It felt different; it bridged ages—every door she encounters transforms both space and time like beautiful origami unfolding before us. Makoto Shinkai isn’t merely crafting stories; he shapes soul connections across generations.
Léa Norrisseau from Montréal, Canada –
Dans ce roman captivant, Shinkai fusionne émotion et imagination. La quête de Suzume devient un voyage métaphysique, résonnant profondément avec les attentes des lecteurs modernes.
Haruto Kinoshita from Fukuoka, Japan –
Reading ‘Suzume’s Door Lock’ feels like stepping into an untouched memory. It echoes the gentle whispers of Kyushu’s mountain winds, pulling at my heartstrings as if Shinkai himself painted this vibrant tapestry.
Luca from Milan, Italy –
An engaging read with vivid descriptions and heartfelt moments. Shinkai’s storytelling shines through every page.
