Makoto Shinkai’s fan rejoice! In celebration of the DVD release of Makoto Shinkai’s Byousoku 5 centimeter. The company has decided to stream his 2 previous works for free online!
Anyway, they will be streaming Hoshi no Koe for a month from 2nd July 2007 till 30th July 2007. One whole month! As for Kumo no mukou, yakusoku no basho, it will be streamed online for a week, lasting from 11th July 2007 till 18th July 2007.
But theres a catch! You’d need to have a Japanese IP address. T-T
