Aniplex opened an official website for an anime film adaptation for Yoru Sumino's Kimi no Suizou wo Tabetai (I Want to Eat Your Pancreas) novel on Monday. The film is set to premiere in 2018.

Synopsis
One day, I—a high schooler—found a paperback in the hospital. The "Disease Coexistence Journal" was its title. It was a diary that my classmate, Sakura Yamauchi, had written in secret. Inside, it was written that due to her pancreatic disease, her days were numbered. And thus, I coincidentally went from Just-a-Classmate to a Secret-Knowing-Classmate. It was as if I were being drawn to her, who was my polar opposite. However, the world presented the girl that was already suffering from an illness with an equally cruel reality... (Source: MU)

Sumino launched the original novel on the Shousetsuka ni Narou website and Futabasha published the series with illustrations by loundraw in a single volume in June 2015. The novel has a cumulative 2 million copies in print.

A manga adaptation by Idumi Kirihara was serialized in Monthly Action magazine between August 2016 and May 2017. The novel inspired a live-action film by the same title, which premiered on July 28.

A more crueler version of Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice)? Bro, just reading the synopsis alone and I think this will probably hit me harder than Silent Voice and that movie made me depressed for like 3 days.

I actually read the first chapter of it funny enough Lol. It was pretty good so far from what I read.

Getting an animated film sounds like a good idea and from what I aware of it fits in the format the most imo. Base on what I read which is miniscule.

I just read the first chapter of the manga, and the pancreas eating factor came from an old belief that when one of their organs get sick, if they eat the same organ from an animal. Something like bad pancreas, eat a pancreas.

This is one of those overrated movies that will get a +9 score because "the feels"?

Most likely not depending who take it. But it can, but it'll only be depended on the studio alone rather than the staff.

Hopefully a good staff is taken though... even tho I need to read more when it's available.

I see, that makes a lot more sense than the cannibalism type of shit that initially came into my mind when I first read the title.

While the title seems pretty silly, the PV looks pretty nice. I have a feeling it's animated by Troyca from the looks of the PV.

So it's safe to say that the title is in the girl's perspective..

I read the novel... And it's OUTSTANDING.... ^_^

IDK why people got mislead by the title but.. the premises are way too deep to be followed up with.

Still gonna figure out who's Secret-Knowing-Classmate-kun supposed to be xD

Eating someone's pancreas reminds me more of The Silence of the Lambs than A Silent Voice. Anyway it seems interesting enough to give it a try.

You have no right to say that, when your score rating is, Tsundere = 0/10, Hanazawa = 10/10

This reminds me of A Silent Voice but instead of someone who's deaf it's someone with a life-threatening disease (btw it's pancreatic cancer). I think the feels are going to be much worse than the A Silent Voice... From the PV, the art looks great and the music seems alright too. But the title tho...
Going to attempt to read the novel before the film comes out.

guys, rather than koe no katachi, it's more similiar with tokidoki (one shot by komi naoshi, nisekoi author) if anything...

Both Koe no Katachi and Your Name are good movies. Your Name is a little overrated, but KnK is not. Plus, they are rated highly for many reasons.

The anime to best compare it to is

Well, it's not that the anime is very depressing. It's just that it's disappointingly not as good as many people claim it to be. So I hope this one is will be a solid anime.

You may have found it disappointing but A Silent Voice has been generally very well received. Different tastes and all that stuff. :)

Personally I thought they did an excellent job with A Silent Voice. They pared the story back a bit to remove some of the cruft and finished it in the best place IMHO. The only comment I would make is that Kawai and Mashiba suffered a bit much from the trim but I never found Mashiba that much of an interesting character and yeah Kawai is just a nasty piece of work.

Yeah. Some people have really strong preference towards drama even without any/well-written build up & pretty visuals. I understand. So, again, I hope this one will be a solid anime, especially in term of writing & build up for drama.

I've started reading the novel, and it says that the girl said that (the title) because apparently if you eat the organ of an animal which is the same as the one that caused the illness you kind of get cured? Don't know if that's true anyway... I've only started it. Reminds me of that Ienaga from Golden Kamuy...

Looks like reference from old legend, but i think i understand why the author gave the title.

Definitely excited about this one. Seems like the art and animation are fine; character designs are on the simpler side but that's understandable. Since people are comparing them, having read the novel (and manga) I daresay this is going to be far superior to Your Name and Koe no Katachi in terms of plot. I hope the anime manages to improve on the less-than-satisfactory manga adaptation on the ending part.
