The latest anime film from director Naoko Yamada is Kimi no Iro, and last time we checked in on the project it had been pushed back to 2024, scratching its initial fall 2023 premiere plans. Now a date is in place, and it turns out the film will launch just about a year later than originally scheduled. The new date has Yamada’s film slated for an August 30, 2024 opening, as reflected in a new trailer and key visual.
Cast members were also unveiled, including Sayu Suzukawa as Totsuko Higurashi, Akari Takaishi as Kimi Sakunaga, Taisei Kido as Louis Kagehira and Yui Aragaki as Sister Hiyoko. You can meet the anime film’s various characters in the special trailer below.
Kimi no Iro follows Christian Academy high schooler Totsuko, who sees people’s hearts as colors. Thus, Totsuko carefully reads the room so as not to darken the colors of her family and friends. Totsuko eventually meets a music-loving boy and a beautiful girl who radiates striking colors in a used bookstore, and the trio team up to form a band and make music reflecting their youth.
In addition to Naoko Yamada directing and coming up with the original concept, Kimi no Iro features a script by Reiko Yoshida (K-ON!, A Silent Voice) and music by Kensuke Ushio (Chainsaw Man) at production house Science SARU.
