'The Boy and the Beast'

June 09, 2016

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time and Wolf Children's director Mamoru Hosoda's latest: The Boy and the Beast is getting released in two editions. Type A is a special edition which will include a Digipak + 3 books. Type B will be released as one of the Plain Archive releases.

Please note that the Japanese distributor did NOT allow us to include an English subtitle due to region right issues. And because of this, we don't think we would sell The Boy and the Beast internationally.

BUT if you still would like to purchase, please let us know by commenting below. We're open to taking pre-orders even for a small number of people.
