To You in the Beyond Anime Film Introduces Theme Song and Cast with New Trailer
The highly anticipated anime film To You in the Beyond has revealed both its theme song and new additions to the voice cast with its latest trailer. The film is set to premiere in Japanese theaters on October 9, 2026.
The most striking aspect of the trailer was the announcement of four new cast members, including singer and voice actress Sumire Uesaka. Alongside Uesaka, Wataru Hatano, Nobuhiko Okamoto, and Yoshitsugu Matsuoka have joined the cast. While it has not yet been revealed which characters these names will portray, fans hearing familiar voices has heightened excitement.
It is currently unclear whether the film is an original production or an adaptation of a manga. However, the magnificent backgrounds and action-packed scenes seen in the trailer indicate that it is a high-budget and visually ambitious work. Especially Sumire Uesaka's experience in both voice acting and music hints that the film's songs will be impressive. The name and artist of the theme song played in the trailer have not yet been officially announced, but the epic tone of the piece matches the film's melancholic and fantastical atmosphere.
The first visuals and teaser poster for To You in the Beyond released earlier this year promised a story themed around a 'journey to the beyond, the unknown.' While the production studio and director have not yet been announced, the animation quality in the trailer bears the mark of a major studio. If the film achieves the expected success, it would not be surprising to see it turn into a series or receive a sequel. As the release date approaches, more character reveals and additional visuals are expected.
