2016's Your Name is not only the most successful anime film in history, it also cemented director Makoto Shinkai as one of the greats in modern-day anime.

Now, Shinkai has finally announced his long-awaited follow up to his iconic anime. And yes, it is being released internationally.

Back in 2016, Your Name creator Makoto Shinkai directed, edited and storyboarded a short commercial for an educational service. A recent Korean political ad has been accused of ripping it off.

The mega hit anime Your Name is going to be a Hollywood movie. What does Your Name creator Makoto Shinkai think about that? It's kind of like your children leaving home.

A big part of Your Name takes place in Tokyo. Over on Tofugu.com, Kanae Nakamine visited the real-world locations depicted in the movie. 

J.J. Abrams and Paramount Pictures are developing a live-action remake of the hit anime movie Your Name. Wonder what it will be like? On Twitter in Japan, people are already predicting just that.

Your Name, which is not only a very good movie but also the highest-grossing anime feature of all time, is being given the live-action treatment by J.J. Abrams' Hollywood studio.

Your Name is one of the most successful anime movies ever released in Japan. Not only has it made a bunch of cash, but it's also a great film. However, a new YouTube clip alleges that Your Name lifted several sequences from other anime movies.

If you are looking for outfits for a Your Name cosplay (or ways to express Your Name fandom), look no further!

Yoshiharu Sato has an impressive resume: Animator on Porco Rosso, key animator on Kiki's Delivery Service, and supervising animator on My Neighbour Totoro -- among others. Recently, he's been focusing on commercials, and they're terrific. But he's hardly alone at making great anime ads.

Tell me you didn't see this coming?

There is a new anime box office champ. It's Your Name, one of the best animated films I've ever seen.
