The Comet and Timeline 1

During the events of Mitsuha’s switching, there is a comet that is passing by. Is the comet causing this rift in timelines to happen? While in movies like Coherence it is shown to affect timelimes, in Kimi No Na Wa, the switching is shown to be something native to the Miyamizu family and the thread controls flow of time. A town’s festival is on the same day as the Comet’s closest proximity to Earth. Mitsuha cuts her hair to match the length of Taki’s as she’s now clearly grown very fond of him. She’s dressed in a kimono and meets with Teshi and Sayaka. They are surprised to see her with short hair. They head to a vantage point to see the comet clearly. Unfortunately, the comet splits and one fragment drops into Earth. It happens strike and kill hundreds of people in the town. Mitsuha, Teshi and Sayaka die too. The school is left unharmed and so is the shrine. This is how it ends for Mitsuha in Timeline 1. She dies.
