There are no English subtitles, but it should give you a good idea of what to expect from the movie. It’s set to open in Japan on June 8.
Hal features the directorial debut of Ryoutarou Makihara, who previously worked on storyboard and episode direction on anime like Guilty Crown and The Tatami Galaxy. Attack on Titan‘s Wit studio is producing the film, with an original screenplay by Q10‘s Izumi Kizara.
The “near-future romance” story follows Kurumi, a girl who lost a boy she liked, Haru, in a plane accident. In his place now is a robot, “Robo Hal.”
