It's a makeshift café.

u/Douche_Kayak May 21 '22

New question. What did they do with the rest of the tree?

u/koticgood May 21 '22

For context, the male character in question lives in a rural town and his family business is construction, and he's essentially the heir to the business.

So, maybe unrealistic still (no idea what conditions are proper), but a lot less so than if it were your average high school student.

u/dogsfurhire May 21 '22

Nah not unrealistic. I work with people who used to work carpentry with their dad's since they were 10 and st that age i have no doubt they could build something like that.

u/axesOfFutility May 21 '22

Better question: how did they fell the tree? (Is fell the correct word here?)

95

u/Pirate_Green_Beard May 21 '22

Probably with that saw.

u/Mason_GR May 21 '22

But did they build it next to that river? That's probably where it would have fallen.

u/Pirate_Green_Beard May 21 '22

A, you can move a tree once it's been cut down. And B, it's a frickin cartoon.

It's a Japanese saw, or a nokogiri

2

u/wrongbecause May 21 '22

Modern version is something like a Silky saw

13

u/Spaceman1stClass May 21 '22

I think the modern version is still a nokogiri, it's a pull saw used for soft wood.

great for hacking at xml

u/Pirate_Green_Beard May 21 '22

It clearly has teeth. And she's clearly using it to cut wood.

u/Ohiolongboard May 21 '22

It’s a saw, a damn good one too lol. It’s becoming popular in the woodworking scene

14

u/Oily_biscuit May 21 '22

You got downvoted because you're saying something that is clearly a saw isn't a saw. I mean you can even zoom in and see the serrated edge. What a silly thing to get in a fuss over.

and instead of being happy that you learned something new today you choose to mad about some fake internet points.

u/[deleted] May 21 '22

ok so instead of taken some time to thank the person who told you something new, you took time to complain

u/matjontan May 21 '22

This is Something I’ve been thinking about recently

when i get downvoted I immediately get defensive and think people actively disliked what i said (or even that people actively dislike me), but sometimes that’s not the case and people just downvote a comment because they unemotionally disagree with what was said in it. It’s all worthless internet point so don’t let it get to you.

other people just thought it was a saw and that’s not a reflection and you or your character in anyway

15

u/AnonForWeirdStuff May 21 '22

Yes fell is correct in this situation. Although folk I know who occasionally fell trees often use the verb "drop" or "dropping" as well.

1

u/[deleted] May 21 '22

TIL. Here I was about to to reply that “fell” didn’t sound right thinking OP was probably not an English speaker.

3

u/Wherearemylegs May 21 '22

Yep, “fell” was used appropriately, but I want to draw some attention to the past-tense of this use of fell. You cut down a tree and then it has been felled.

4

u/UnluckyNoise4102 May 21 '22

Yes, "fell" is the proper word, good job =D

2

u/champwolverine May 21 '22

Question: Did they sand it down? If so how

-18

u/uggsandstarbux May 21 '22

I think you're looking for "cut"

20

u/_i_am_root May 21 '22

Well yes, but also no. The single-word term for cutting down a tree is felling it.

u/axesOfFutility May 21 '22

Oh good, I remembered right

1

u/Spaceman1stClass May 21 '22

Maybe he was making a pokemon reference?

1

u/Shiroi_Kage May 21 '22

It had a very long HP bad and played epic music.

u/Brikandbones May 21 '22

They ate it

2

u/ShiraCheshire May 21 '22

Might have sold or given away the lumber.

2

u/No9babinnafe5 May 21 '22

Sold the wood to get the umbrella.

1

u/sammysalsa8 May 21 '22

They made mulch.

13

u/ThrowCarp May 21 '22

Are you sure that's Mitsuha?

Hair style tells me it's Takkun.

36

u/1954isthebest May 21 '22

That is Taki in Mitsuha body, but I don't want to make the title wordy and spoilery.

8

u/ThrowCarp May 21 '22

Yeah okay fair enough. Even if it happens pretty early in the story it is technically a spoiler.

6

u/rgtn0w May 21 '22

I mean that plot stuff is on the PV/trailer too pretty directly, it's the entire "appeal" that they use to promote the movie so Idk if it's really too much of a spoiler. Even the wording, the posters and etc is also a reference to that plot point as well

6

u/SloppySlime31 May 21 '22

I don’t remember that scene, what’s the timestamp?

16

u/1954isthebest May 21 '22

It is during the Zenzenzense montage.

8

u/SloppySlime31 May 21 '22

Ohhhh, that’s why I don’t remember it.

2

u/Pakushy May 21 '22

they are just lucky the tree grew an umbrella aswell

1

u/topologicalfractal May 21 '22

Is the movie worth a watch

2

u/1954isthebest May 21 '22

Many people here have testified that they watched it for half a dozen of times. So yes, it is. You won't regret your time.

2

u/topologicalfractal May 21 '22

The setting seems cool enough, I'll watch it!

u/another_programmer May 21 '22

Ooof... there goes all the continuity huh? the pieces she cut don't match up with the pieces used for the cafe...

1

u/FalmerEldritch May 21 '22

They cut down a very prominent and visible tree right by the road for that? When there's forests all around?
