History Anime / TheGirlWhoLeaptThroughTime

Poor Makoto. She's officially having her worst day ever! It's not enough that she overslept and barely made it into school on time, she also flunked a math quiz, got flattened by two rambunctious boys at lunchtime, accidentally set the home economics room on fire, and then had this really weird accident while cleaning the science lab. Then to top it all off, she just had to crash her bike into this really crabby lady on her way home...and that wasn't until ''after'' she'd already been hit and killed by the train!

* BettyAndVeronica: Kousuke (Betty) and Chiaki (Veronica) for Makoto.

No relation to ''Anime/SoraOKakeruShoujo" ("The Girl Who Leapt Through Space"), whose title was inspired by and a reference to this work.

* ClingyJealousGirl: Makoto starts falling into this trope when her friend Yuri starts getting a little too friendly with Chiaki about midway through the film. She displays it subtly though, such as eating all the rice their family was supposed to have for dinner, and sulking about it. To be fair, she was totally at fault here, constantly trying to change the subject when he did try asking her out, and then her constant avoidance of him gave signs that she wasn't interested in him.

* HeyItsThatVoice: Makoto's teacher is [[NeonGenesisEvangelion Gendo Ikari]].

* FourIsDeath: At 4:00, Makoto nearly gets hit by the train before time leaping. [[spoiler: Kousuke and Yuri ''did'' get hit by it at the same time, in a different timeline.]]

->''Time waits for no one.''

* {{Bokukko}}: Makoto.

!!Contains examples of:

* ArcWords: [[TheRollingStones "Time waits for no one."]]

* GenreSavvy: Makoto's aunt, who was either trolling her with her advice, or giving the best she could given the circumstances, such as if she ever considered that maybe her time traveling is ruining someone else's life in the process of her trying to fix something else.

* SceneryPorn: Especially at one point when time is frozen

No relation to ''SoraWoKakeruShoujo" ("The Girl Who Leapt Through Space"), whose title was inspired by and a reference to this work.

* RailroadTracksOfDoom: At precisely [[FourIsDeath 4:00]] no less.

* GratuitousEnglish: "Time leap."

* MeetCute: Makoto arranges one for Kousuke and Kaho [[spoiler:It turns out well at first, but ultimately results in both of their deaths.]] It takes her at least four tries to get it right. Good thing she can time-jump.

[[spoiler:-->'''Chiaki:''' I'll be waiting in the future.\\

** What makes it worse is that by the end, [[spoiler:the first hints of that future are only beginning to show]].

* [[spolier: SixIsNine: The '90' tatooed on Makoto's is actually a '06', it's the number of leaps she has left.]]
