The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (時をかける少女 Toki o Kakeru Shōjo), also referred as TokiKake for short, is an animated Japanese film produced by the animation studio Madhouse and distributed through Kadokawa Herald Pictures, first released in theaters in Japan on July 15, 2006. The film was later released on DVD on April 20, 2007 in Japan in regular and limited editions. A German RC2 DVD (with German and Japanese dub and German and Polish subtitles) was released on September 24, 2007 by Anime Virtual/AV Visionen. A manga story, set as a prelude to the film, was serialized in Kadokawa Shoten's Shōnen Ace manga magazine between April 26, 2006 and June 26, 2006; the chapters were later collected into a single bound volume which went on sale on July 26, 2006.
On December 9, 2007, Bandai Entertainment announced that the anime film will be released as a region 1 DVD in the United States for the first time. The scheduled release date will be November 18, 2008. Bandai released it theatrically in New York City on June 13, 2008.[7]
Yasutaka Tsutsui's novel is used as the basis of the film, but it is not a direct adaptation. Instead, the film is set as a continuation of the book in the same setting some twenty years later. Tsutsui Yasutaka praised the film as being "a true second-generation" of his book at the Tokyo International Anime Fair on March 24, 2006.[8]
