Suzume will be available internationally for streaming soon, according to Crunchyroll. Makoto Shinkai’s latest box office hit will be available exclusively on the service from November 16, 2023 at 5pm PT/8pm ET.
The international streaming debut of Suzume has been a long time coming. Suzume no Tojimari originally released in Japan in November 2022, before releasing in theaters internationally as Suzume in April 2023. The movie has been a phenomenal success. Its debut in Japan broke records, earning 1.88 billion in three days, and beating the opening weekend of Shinkai’s previous works, Your Name and Weathering With You. Internationally, it’s now the fourth highest grossing anime movie of all time.
Suzume is the story of a teenage girl swept up in a journey across Japan, seeking to close doors that cause destruction. She is accompanied by Sota Munakata, a mysterious man who gets turned into a chair. Along the way, Suzume gets to befriend a variety of characters as she attempts to catch a mystical cat and prevent disaster. It is Makoto Shinkai’s seventh feature length movie.
Suzume will be available for streaming exclusively on Crunchyroll from November 16, 2023 at 5pm ET. It will be available in the Americas, Europe (except France), Africa, the Middle East, Oceania and the Commonwealth of Independent States.
