Following Your Name. and Weathering With You, the Suzume anime film is the third collaboration between director Makoto Shinkai and RADWIMPS, who worked on the soundtrack along with composer Kazuma Jinnouchi (Star Wars: Visions, Detective Pikachu). As we prepare for Suzume to make its North American debut on April 14, Anime Limited announced that it has acquired the physical distribution rights to the film’s soundtrack for North America and Europe.

 

Pre-orders are going live today for the Japanese import version of the Suzume Motion Picture Soundtrack Limited Vinyl Edition for North America, UK and Ireland via AllTheAnime.com and for mainland Europe via AllTheAnime.fr.

 

The international edition will be released on vinyl and CD in the same territories later this year, with additional information and pre-order details to follow in February. In the meantime, all 29 tracks are available to stream or download now via Apple Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, iTunes, Spotify, Tidal and YouTube Music.

Crunchyroll describes the Suzume movie:

 

On the other side of the door, was time in its entirety—

 

“Suzume no Tojimari” is a coming-of-age story for the 17-year-old protagonist, Suzume, set in various disaster-stricken locations across Japan, where she must close the doors causing devastation. 

 

Suzume’s journey begins in a quiet town in Kyushu (located in southwestern Japan) when she encounters a young man who tells her, “I’m looking for a door.” What Suzume finds is a single weathered door standing upright in the midst of ruins as though it was shielded from whatever catastrophe struck. Seemingly drawn by its power, Suzume reaches for the knob… Doors begin to open one after another all across Japan, unleashing destruction upon any who are near. Suzume must close these portals to prevent further disaster.

 

—The stars, then sunset, and the morning sky.

 

Within that realm, it was as though all time had melted together in the sky…

 

Never-before-seen scenery, encounters and farewells… A myriad of challenges await her on her journey. Despite all the obstacles in her way, Suzume’s adventure shines a ray of hope upon our own struggles against the toughest roads of anxiety and constraints that make up everyday life. This story of closing doors that connect our past to the present and future will leave a lasting impression upon all of our hearts. 

 

Drawn in by these mysterious doors, Suzume’s journey is about to begin.
