It’s time to go back to the past in a big way as Crunchyroll is now streaming the anime feature film A Wind Named Amnesia. Their acquisition of streaming rights comes from Discotek Media so the availability for it is somewhat limited as it’s open to viewers in the US and Canada only. And because it’s a much older license that was parceled up years ago. The film was originally brought to North America by Central Park Media.
Check out our review of the original novel.
Plot Concept: Are we shackled by civilization? What is a human being, when freed from the pressures of society? A Wind Named Amnesia explores Earth after a mysterious wind blows away all of humanity’s memories and reduces people to a more primitive state. Through certain circumstances, Wataru has relearned how to speak and think, and now is determined to find out just what remains in the wake of the wind. Joined by a strange woman named Sophia, the two of them set out on a journey across what was once known as the United States of America. Along the way, they will witness the true nature of man, and just what it means to be human.
