The purpose of this study is to analyze the animation of Hosoda Mamoru, who leads the market of animation to the world in a style different from that of the West. He is walking in a different direction than the world of Hayao Miyazaki by designing the new space-time to arrange events and adjust relations with character in his own film language style. Thereupon the aim of this study is to present the direction of animation in the near future based on the characteristics of the works of Hosoda Mamoru who opened the era of the new anime.

The difference between story time and discourse time is divided into actual time, screening time, time frame. And then I comprehensive analyze the works of Hosoda Mamoru's「Time Traveller: The Girl Who Leapt Through Time」,「Summer Wars」and「Wolf Children」.
