If you can't get enough of Life Is Strange
For those who haven't know it yet. There's a Japanese anime film called "Your name.", the script isn't rip off at all, but with similar vibe.
I won't spoil anything here, but I have to say if LIS is the most beautiful game I've ever experienced, then this film is the most beautiful movie I've ever seen.
It'll be released in North American theaters in April, though might need to watch it few times to understand everything and support the makers then. Enjoy :)

Your Name (Japanese: 君の名は。 Hepburn: Kimi no Na wa.?) is a 2016 Japanese anime romantic fantasy drama film directed, written, cinematographed, and edited by Makoto Shinkai, based on his own novel of the same name published only a month before the film's premiere.[2] It tells the story of a young man living in Tokyo and a young woman living in the countryside who suddenly start switching bodies on a regular basis.

Yeah it isn't a rip-off at all. It does involve time-travel and there is one element of the plot beyond that which has some slight similarity to LIS but not much really.

Worth noting is that the other works of "Your Name" director Makoto Shinkai are good as well. He's Christopher Nolan of anime industry. :)

When your being described as the new Hayao Miyazaki that does suggest he's probably doing something right.

I was excited until I saw "story of a young man"... :2016imnotcrying:

Anyways, Makoto Shinkai is an amazing director, and all his works are visually stunning. I need too see this one.

I saw that movie. Really interesting. And funny. XP
If we compare it with LIS did that, seems to you familiar?
