The official English website for The Anthem of the Heart (Kokoro ga Sakebitagatterun Da.), the original anime film from the anohana (Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae o Boku-tachi wa Mada Shiranai.) and Toradora! anime staff, posted the English-subtitled version of the film's second trailer. The same video debuted at the anime's AnimeJapan 2015 stage event on March 21.
In addition, the English website also updated with English translations of the previously announced staff and characters, as well as the film's story.
The main cast and characters are:
The film reunites staff members from the anohana and Toradora! anime. Tatsuyuki Nagai (A Certain Scientific Railgun, Waiting in the Summer) is again directing the film at the studio A-1 Pictures. Mari Okada (M3 the dark metal, Hana-Saku Iroha) is writing the script, and Masayoshi Tanaka (Highschool of the Dead, Joshiraku) is designing the characters. Like the anohana anime, the story of the new film will be set in Chichibu.
Aniplex of America announced in February that it has licensed the film. The film will open in Japan on September 19, and participating theaters will begin offering advance tickets with an Egg Fairy mascot mobile phone strap on March 28.
