Cross-Check Global Announcements with Local Listings When Planning to Watch
The basis of this news is Netflix's announcement of the global streaming date. The 12/11 date is the scheduled streaming release, not an announcement of theatrical screenings in Japan. Once the official local title page and trailer are updated, please check the local title, subtitle/audio options, and release time displayed there.
When looking up the director's past works, keep in mind that works by the same director are not necessarily available at the same time or in every region. Separating trailers for the new film from older titles already available to stream will help avoid the misconception that the new film is already out.
