Taki, a high school boy living in Tokyo, and Mitsuha, a girl living in a small mountain town in the Hida region, begin experiencing a strange phenomenon: they periodically swap bodies, despite having never met. As their lives become increasingly intertwined, a comet approaching Earth for the first time in 1200 years sets in motion events that will change their fates.

The story centers on two strangers whose lives become linked through an unexplained body-swapping phenomenon, contrasting city and countryside life through the alternating perspectives of a boy and a girl. Elements such as the treatment of time and memory, along with the mystery surrounding the approaching comet, give the narrative a puzzle-like quality. The sense of connection formed between two people who do not even know each other's names, and their relationship as they drift apart yet remain drawn together, are widely cited as reasons for the story's appeal.
