With You Our Love Will Make It Through Gets English Dub

Crunchyroll has confirmed that the English dub for With You, Our Love Will Make it Through is on the way. The streamer revealed on Monday that the dub for the television anime, based on Chihiro Yuzuki’s manga, would start the very next day.

Helena Walstrom is directing the dub, with Samantha Herek producing and Dallas Reid adapting the script. Rickey Watkins is handling the mix and Seth Aulds is the engineer. The anime itself first aired on October 14 on Tokyo MX, and the series has been streaming as each new episode goes out in Japan.

Behind the show are co directors Shin Itagaki and Hiromi Kimura at studio Millepensee. Itagaki is also overseeing and writing the scripts, while Kimura takes on character design, and Akiyoshi Yasuda is composing the music.

The story follows high schooler Mari, who bumps into a fellow latecomer at school and realizes he is beastfolk. In this world, beastfolk and humans live side by side, though it is still uncommon and not free of prejudice. Mari is nervous at first, but the more she gets to know him, the more his steadiness and kindness win her over.

Yen Press is publishing the manga in English. Yuzuki launched the original on Shueisha’s Manga Mee shojo website in May 2019, and it is still running, with the tenth volume already out in Japan.

My take: A gentle romance about looking past appearances is exactly the kind of warm, low stakes story I like to keep on in the background, and a quick dub turnaround means more people can enjoy it right away.
