Ten years ago, Makoto Shinkai premiered what could be argued is his magnum opus, Your Name, at Anime Expo in Los Angeles, where it became an instant classic. The first film in the legendary anime director's "disaster trilogy" was met with widespread praise for its unique, emotionally heavy take on a body-swap story that has already had a massive influence on the medium. Beyond all the acclaim and awards spanning from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association to the Japan Academy, it managed the unthinkable and dethroned one of Studio Ghibli's all-time classics, Spirited Away, to become the highest-grossing original Japanese animated film of all-time with a worldwide haul of $400 million. Now, once more during Anime Expo, Collider can exclusively reveal that Mitsuha and Taki's story will soon be retold in theaters with a new 4K remaster on August 14 courtesy of GKIDS.
