Kono Sekai no Katasumi ni (In a Corner of this World)
from wikipedia Quote:
This successor of the long selling Heisei classic “Town of Evening Calm, Country of Cherry Blossoms” is a family drama set in Hiroshima's military city Kure during the war. Protagonist Suzu marries and moves from Hiroshima City to Kure, where she encounters uncertainty in her new family, her new city, and her new world. However, she manages to live each day healthily and happily. MAPPA will adapted this manga into movie. And the event was held today. http://www.mappa.co.jp/news/news_2015.html Quote:

The manga is licensed into English by JManga in digital version and never physically published. And now JManga is shut down, with all their translation, so it's impossible to find / buy from amazon. http://www.comicsbeat.com/jmanga-shu...ought-with-it/ Also, they will open the crowd funding event tomorrow : Quote:

The crowdfunding campaign for the anime film of Fumiyo Kono's To All The Corners Of The World (Kono Sekai no Katasumi ni) manga reached its goal on Wednesday. The campaign launched in Japan on March 9.
The campaign's goal was to reach 20 million yen (about US$164,873) in funding, and as of press time the campaign had raised 20,354,000 yen (US$167,788) from 1,736 backers. The crowdfunding campaign offers six tiers of rewards from 2,000 yen (about US$17, with a member's pin badge and a letter from the lead character Suzu) to 1,000,000 yen (about US$8,000 with the badge, the letter, an invitation to one of three production support member meetings in July, and a name listing in the ending credits). The campaign will end on the Makuake website on May 29. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...ng-goal/.86086 |

These are few images of the event held on May, 5th. http://konosekai.jp/news/?tag=%E3%82...83%BC%E3%83%88 Yeah, MAPPA will be the studio that handles the animation. And seems this anime is one of Maruyama's ambitious project. I hope he and MAPPA will make more movies, like Yume Miru Kikai / Dreaming Machine or Pluto. Quote:
Recently I got some scan of the manga but unable to read it I hope Viz or other publisher can take the license from JManga and publish the printed version. |

I just learnt about this crowdfunded project, completely by chance. I was immediately captivated by its visuals, and especially by its theme song.
It turns out that Kanashikutte Yarikirenai ( 悲しくて やりきれない , "This Unbearable Sadness") is an old tragic song that's been covered by several artistes over the years. The movie's version was adapted and performed by kotringo, who interestingly chose to give the song a brighter, more positive spin. This is most probably meant to reflect how Suzu endured her hardships with pluck and determination. The lyrics are below, with my stab at a translation: Quote:

In the quoted interview above it mentions a (I presume Japanese?) company that will distribute this film "globally".
I think that is about the extent that I have heard regarding an English release up to now, though.... Definitely is one I am looking forward to checking out, though.

Download link Doc: http://americanfilmmarket.com/wp-con...-11.07.16.docx. "A theatrical launch is slated for this summer, followed by distribution on other platforms." per: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...canada/.111655 Update. Monday, February 13, 2017: Fourteen weeks into its release and with 68 "screens" the film again remarkably maintained a spot in the top 10 for this weekend's listings, dropping one spot to #8. According to the http://eiga.com/ranking/ for the previous weekend and the most recent weekend*. The level of detail for the creation of the protagonist's voice was mostly lost on me but is perhaps interesting to mention. Spoiler:
