Madhouse released an original anime film in theatres called Kimi no Koe wo Todoketai on Friday. I don't think I have even seen anyone mention it. Was it a total flop or something?

Apparently all the voice actresses for the main girls were rookies with no previous experience selected from auditions of over 3000 participants.

The review score on Yahoo! Movies JP is currently extremely positive though 4.07/5.

It's not a big hit since it didn't rank in top 10 box office but it should make some profit after all's said and done.

With that title, idiots probably assumed it was a ripoff of both Your Name and Silent Voice.

I was just having a look at 2ch and they're comparing it to Poppin Q at the moment. Looks like it had virtually no publicity and was targeting an audience of normal people.

I did think it was an unfortunate title when I saw it. I'm guessing it was decided before both of those came out but they could have changed it.

Guess it won't fare well on /a/ then.

Most films of this kind do fine with people on /a/. There will always be the vocal minority who complain though about it not being otaku bait I suppose.

>Poppin Q
That was bland mix of mahou shoujo and isekai,subs never

The story of this is about the six girls starting a radio station after they find all the equipment abandoned in a building. The main girl believes that you can bring about change in the world through the power of voice in a mystical/magic kind of way.
There is a documentary about it from NHK

ah the animation for the faces looks so weird
i thought it looked nice from the poster but the trailer makes it look bad
>>161676442
I feel like that should have been a TV series considering the cast of characters
torrents when?
