Children Who Chase Lost Voices (星を追う子ども, Hoshi wo Ou Kodomo, lit. "Children Who Chase Stars"), also known as Journey to Agartha,[1] is a 2011 Japanese anime fantasy film written and directed by Makoto Shinkai and produced by CoMix Wave Films. Following his previous work 5 Centimeters per Second, this film is described as a "lively" animated film with adventure, action, and romance centered on a cheerful and spirited girl on a journey to say "farewell". The film was released in Japan on May 7, 2011.[2][3] It was released on DVD and Blu-ray in Japan on November 25, 2011.[4] The film was previously licensed by Sentai Filmworks in North America and released on DVD and Blu-ray in November 2012.[5] On May 9, 2019 it was announced that Sentai had lost the North American license, causing the releases to go out of print.[6] On March 10, 2022, GKIDS announced that they have licensed Children Who Chase Lost Voices, along with three other works by Makoto Shinkai, and will re-release the film on home video in 2023.[7]
