Writer-director Makoto Shinkai\u2019s beloved 2016 anime film Your Name<\/a> has been remastered in 4K for a North American theatrical re-release next month.<\/p>\n

GKIDS will release the 4K remaster of Your Name in theaters nationwide starting August 14 in both its original Japanese language and English dub versions. IGN can exclusively reveal the trailer for the re-release, which can be watched via the player below.<\/p>\n

Animated by CoMix Wave Films, Your Name became a global phenomenon upon its release in 2016. With a worldwide box office haul north of $400 million, Your Name remains the highest-grossing original Japanese animated feature of all time. <\/p>\n

Described by GKIDS in their official announcement as \u201ca breathtaking love story across time,\u201d Your Name follows \u201crural schoolgirl Mitsuha and city kid Taki [who] awaken to discover that they\u2019ve switched bodies. The total strangers struggle to navigate each other\u2019s lives, walking tightropes of intimacy and distance. But when they finally resolve to meet, the true nature of their connection threatens to seal their fate.\u201d<\/p>\n

In her Your Name review<\/a>, IGN\u2019s critic Jenna Busch wrote \u201cthe animation is absolutely gorgeous and the story will grab your heart and squeeze. Your Name doesn\u2019t quite match the feel of a classic Miyazaki film, but it\u2019s still a lovely story that actually manages to make the time travel mostly understandable\u2026 This is definitely worth a watch.\u201d<\/p>\n
