Japanese Anime film “Kimi no Na wa.” (Your Name | 君の名は) is currently on its 11th week of showing.
The story follows two high school students, City boy Taki and Country girl Mitsuha, who are complete strangers living totally different lives yet one day find themselves switching bodies with each other.

Dub never attracted otakus. You can NEVER get the essence of an anime if it’s not Japanese audio. Viewers Choice have already confirmed it’ll be subbed on theatrical release. I totally recommend watching this even if you’re not into anime. Makoto Shinkai’s works is just amazing.
really hoping it will not be dubbed.
Though the movie is currently being showed in Singapore, and in English Subtitled – http://www.gv.com.sg/GVMovieDetails#/movie/3391/cinema/114
