GKIDS Acquires Rights to ‘Lonely Castle in the Mirror’ for N. America Summer Release

GKIDS has acquired the rights to Lonely Castle in the Mirror and plan to release the film in theaters this summer.

GKIDS announced earlier this week that they’ve acquired the rights to the anime film Lonely Castle in the Mirror and will be releasing the film in North America later this summer. The film is adapted from Mizuki Tsujimura’s novel of the same name and was originally released in Japan on December 23, 2022.

To celebrate this announcement, GKIDS released a trailer to promote the film:

Lonely Castle in the Mirror is summarized as follows:

Shy outcast Kokoro has been avoiding school for weeks when she discovers a portal in her bedroom mirror. She reaches through and finds herself transported to an enchanting castle where she is joined by six other students. When a girl in a wolf mask explains that they have been invited to play a game, the teens must work together to uncover the mysterious connection that unites them. However, anyone who breaks the rules will be eaten by a wolf.

An exact release date hasn’t been given as yet, but Lonely Castle in the Mirror will premiere in the U.S. sometime this summer.
