Where to Watch Your Name in the US

Skip the Crunchyroll result even though it ranks prominently: the current page explicitly says the film's videos are unavailable. Treat Netflix as an account check rather than a confirmed US route because its catalog varies by country.

We checked public official service, distributor, storefront, catalog, and help records on September 17, 2026. We did not sign in, press play, buy the film, or test a paid plan. Confirm the exact title, edition, language, price, and entitlement in the account that will watch it.

Where to watch Your Name in the US

The title is unusually easy to misread in a search result. Verify that the page identifies Makoto Shinkai's 2016 animated film about Mitsuha and Taki, rather than a television episode or a different work that happens to contain “Your Name.”

For a wider film-first workflow, use our legal anime movie viewing guide after checking this title-level answer.

Pick a route by the kind of access you want

The shortest useful decision is not “which service ranks first?” It is “do I want temporary subscription access or a copy I can keep?”

Choose Hulu when

• You already subscribe and the movie opens in your US profile.
• HD playback and the language shown on the exact movie page meet your needs.
• You want to watch once without creating a separate digital library.

Hulu's public page identifies Your Name. as a PG animated fantasy movie from 2016, directed by Makoto Shinkai. It displays HD, 5.1, and multilingual labels. Those page-level labels are useful discovery evidence, but the final audio and caption choices should be checked inside the player before a group watch.

Choose HBO Max when

• The title is visible in your current HBO Max account.
• Your plan supports the picture quality you want.
• You prefer a subscription route that also carries other anime films.

Warner Bros. Discovery's catalog announcement listed Your Name. with a 4K streaming debut for premium subscribers. The publisher also warned that its monthly list could change and was not comprehensive. That is why this guide pairs the announcement with the current HBO Max movie page and still asks you to confirm the account state.

The 4K label is plan-specific evidence, not a promise that every subscriber or device receives 4K. Your plan, device, connection, display, and the current title record all matter.

If you are comparing catalogs beyond this film, our anime streaming service comparison separates title evidence from general platform features.

Choose digital on demand when

• You want access independent of a rotating subscription catalog.
• You need a specific English or Japanese version.
• You prefer a digital library over a disc.

GKIDS currently links Apple TV and Prime Video from the film's official page. Apple's US storefront record lists a 1-hour-46-minute runtime, English and Japanese among the original audio choices, and English closed captions. Prime Video's ranked record is labeled “Original Japanese Version.”

Do not assume that Apple TV means Apple TV+ subscription inclusion, or that a Prime Video record means Prime membership includes the film. “On demand” can mean rent, buy, or another transaction shown at checkout. Inspect the button and receipt terms in the intended account.

Choose the physical edition when

• You want a copy that does not depend on a streaming catalog.
• The new 4K remaster is the reason for the purchase.
• Bonus features, packaging, or shelf ownership matter.

GKIDS labels the 10th-anniversary new 4K remaster “out now” on 4K UHD Steelbook and Blu-ray. Its page lists bonus material including a Makoto Shinkai interview, behind-the-scenes material, a filmography, a television special, textless opening credits, teasers, and trailers.

The format distinction matters. A 4K UHD disc requires compatible hardware; a Blu-ray listing is not automatically the 4K disc. Check the product title, included discs, region compatibility, audio, subtitles, seller, and return policy before ordering.

Why the Crunchyroll result is a dead end

Crunchyroll announced Your Name. for its movie catalog in 2022, which explains why old recommendations and its official title page still appear in search. Current availability controls the answer, however. The live page now says “Videos Aren't Available” and directs visitors toward similar shows.

That creates a classic search-result trap:

1. The result comes from an official anime service.
2. The title and artwork match the film.
3. The landing page loads normally.
4. No playable video is available.

A loaded title page is not the same thing as licensed playback. The useful signal is the availability message on the page today. If Crunchyroll restores the film later, confirm the audio, subtitles, account country, and play state before treating it as another route.

This distinction is also useful when browsing the where-to-watch hub: official pages can document a title while simultaneously proving that a route is unavailable.

Why Netflix needs an account check

Netflix's generic title page for Your Name ranks at the top of both observed result sets. It correctly identifies the 2016 anime movie and Makoto Shinkai, but that does not establish universal United States playback.

Netflix's help documentation says each country has its own catalog. A public result can also be rendered for a different market than the person reading it. Use this verification sequence:

1. Sign in to the US profile that will watch the film.
2. Search for Your Name and open the 2016 Makoto Shinkai movie.
3. Confirm that a Play control appears rather than an unavailable notice.
4. Open Audio & Subtitles and check the intended language.
5. Record the date because catalog rights can change.

Until those checks succeed, Netflix belongs in the “verify” column, not the recommendation column.

English dub, Japanese audio, and subtitles

The Apple TV US record gives the clearest public language receipt among the reviewed pages. It lists English and Japanese original audio, English closed captions, French subtitles, and Latin American Spanish subtitles. Prime Video separately labels one record as the original Japanese version. Hulu marks its page multilingual without exposing every track in the public text.

Use a three-part language check on any service:

Storefront language lists can differ by country, edition, or transaction. A service-level “multilingual” badge is broader than an item-level promise. Check the exact film page again immediately before watching or buying.

Is the 10th-anniversary version a different movie?

It is a new 4K remaster of the same feature, not a sequel. GKIDS presents the anniversary release as a new home-video edition and continues to describe the same Mitsuha-and-Taki story.

Choose the remaster for image format, packaging, or extras. Choose Hulu or HBO Max for convenient subscription viewing. Choose Apple TV or Prime Video for digital on-demand access. None of those access formats changes the story order.

Save a viewing receipt

Streaming answers become stale because they often omit the conditions that made them true. Save a small receipt before subscribing or purchasing:

For example: “Hulu, US account, September 17, 2026; 2016 movie visible; Japanese audio and English subtitles confirmed; playable under current plan.” That statement is more useful than “it is on Hulu” because another reader can reproduce the check.
