Encore Films began streaming an English- and Chinese-subtitled trailer on Tuesday for The Colors Within (Kimi no Iro), a new anime feature film by Science SARU and director Naoko Yamada. The trailer reveals that Encore Films will open the film in Singapore on December 5.
The anime opened in Japan on August 30. It earned 97,739,500 yen (about US$680,200) in its first three days. The film was originally slated to open in fall 2023, but it was then delayed to 2024.
The story centers on Totsuko, a high school girl who can see the "colors" of the emotions in people's hearts. She attends a mission school in Nagasaki. In order to keep her friends and family from feeling dark feelings, she worries, reads situations, and even lies to smooth things over. At an antique bookshop in the corner of town, she meets a beautiful woman with an incredibly beautiful color and a music-loving boy trying to put together a band. The story follows these three sensitive people who gather together to play in a band.
Yamada directed the film at Science SARU. Story Inc. is credited as planner and producer. Reiko Yoshida (K-ON!, Girls und Panzer, Ride Your Wave, Violet Evergarden) penned the script, and kensuke ushio (Space Dandy, A Silent Voice, Liz and the Blue Bird, Chainsaw Man) composed the music. DaisukeRichard drafted the original characters, and Takashi Kojima designed the characters and also directed the animation. Mr. Children performs the theme song "in the pocket."
