5 Centimeters Per Second Redubbed

Bang Zoom! Entertainment has announced its completion of a new English language dub for the 2007 anime film 5 Centimeters Per Second. The new English dub stars Johnny Yong Bosch as Takaki, Erika Weinstein as Akari, and Kira Buckland as Kanae. Bang Zoom was commissioned to produce a new English dub for the film by its original Japanese distributor CoMix Wave Films. Bang Zoom’s English language translation of the film will premiere on Saturday, February 28, when it will stream on Crunchyroll for 24 hours to commemorate Global Shinkai Day – a day of recognition for the film’s auteur creator/director Makoto Shinkai.

ADV Films released its English dub of 5 Centimeters Per Second in March 2008. ADV formally ended its distribution of the film in July 2008.
