The friendly folks New York Anime Festival (NYAF) and Crunchyroll announced last weeek that renowned annimator and director, Makoto Shinkai, will be at this year's NYAF to present the New York premiere of his latest film Hoshi o Ou Kodomo: Children Who Chase Lost Voices From Deep Below. Shinakai, who's famous for earlier works which include The Voices of A Distant Star and 5 Centimeters per Second, will be on hand for autographs and a Q & A session for his new film.
Children Who Chase Lost Voices From Deep Below premiered in Japan on May 7th and made it's US debut at this year's Otakon in Baltimore, Maryland. In the film, "a girl named Asuna meets a young man called Shun who comes from the faraway land of Agartha. The two quickly become friends, but then -- just as quickly -- Shun disappears. And when Asuna hears the word 'Agartha' again in school as part of a fairytale, she knows adventure and mystery lie ahead."
