An official teaser website launched for an original anime film titled Kimi wa Kanata on Tuesday. The website also revealed two cast members as well as a teaser visual (pictured above). The film takes place in Tokyo's Ikebukuro district and will debut in Fall 2020. Additionally, a novel published by Kadokawa is set to be released alongside the movie.

Synopsis
Mio has feelings for her childhood friend Arata, but can't convey her feelings. One day, as they continue their delicate relationship, the two fight over something trivial. After letting tensions settle, Mio goes to make up with him in the pouring rain. While on her way, she gets into a traffic accident. When she regains consciousness, a mysterious and unfamiliar world appears before her eyes.

Cast
Mio: Honoka Matsumoto (You to Bakemono ni Naru Chichi ga Tsurai live-action drama)
Arata: Toshiki Seto (Kamen Rider Ex-Aid live-action drama)

Staff
Director, Screenplay: Yoshinobu Sena (Kushimitama Samurai)
Studio: Digital Network Animation (Sakkai Eightraid)
Production, Planning: CUCURI (Sakkai Eightraid)
Distribution: Rabbit House, Elephant House

The film is Yoshinobu Sena's first feature-length animated movie. In 2014, he won the Yamagata Prefectural Governor's Award at the tenth Yamagata International Movie Festival for Kushimitama Samurai. This movie is also Toshiki Seto's voice acting debut.

Looks interesting, might give it a watch. And we also have a new voice actor. Did a quick search and apparently he's already an actor, so hopefully his voice acting will be good.

Oh lOoK "Parallel Worlds" mixed with "another world" in the most ambitious rip-off this year. Audacious.

i agree this does remind me of Sakasama no Patema (at least the cover art does). Hopefully the romance in it is good, which it seems like it could be. Interesting to see how this new director holds up
