So excited for Koe no Katachi movie. KyoAni has done absolute justice to the character designs and the overall feel of the series in the PV. Moreover, voice acting sounds on point.

I'm also excited but then I remember there will be months of agonized waiting before the bluray is released. I'm finding it hard to cope with waiting to watch Kimi no na Wa already, can I manage the time until Katachi is available or will I snap?

You don't watch Kyoto Animation movies in not HD. I will agonizingly wait for the HD version. No matter what! I am doing the same with Kimi no Na wa. I only watch Shinkai movies in HD.

Yup, gotta agree with that one. As it's said “Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.” So gotta wait for them ultra HD mouth watering visuals. You can't just risk one of the main attractions of the shows like that.
For now settle it with the extended PV. It got a 94% from audience on that.

Very true, anime is a visual medium after all and both Shinkai and Kyoani are at the forefront of animation and art.
RedaJaNai said: Noob question: has KyoAni ever treated a subject as heavy as bullying? If so, were they successful?
I'm very big Kyoani Fan and I haven't seen any subject like this, I think it's their first time adapting something like this.
Yeah from what I've seen (which is only a part of KyoAni's works, obviously) many of their series are light-hearted. I hope they won't screw up the atmosphere. Thanks for your answer!

You can rest assure, its director Naoko Yamada is the absolute best in the medium at conveying characters' emotions and maximizing emotional impact.

In Kyoukai no Kanata violence more than is necessary for the adaptation of this manga. Their adaptation of Clannad so in general still has one of the highest ratings here. So everything will be fine.

Showcasing violence has nothing to do with being able to treat heavy subjects correctly and well MAL ratings... lel. But wait and seeI guess.
