OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders celebrates the 40th Anniversary of the Kamen Rider franchise, easily taking first place this weekend.  

Let's Go Kamen Riders opened on 273 screens, pulling in 261,502 admissions for the 2-Day weekend to gross 304,862,900 yen ($3.7 million).  Additionally, the film grossed an estimated 92,000,000 yen ($1.1 million) on it's opening day, Friday, to bring it's 3-Day total to an estimated 397,000,000 yen ($4.8 million).

After spending three consecutive weeks on top, SP: The Motion Picture - Revolution gets bumped to second place.  After 23 days in release, the police drama exceeded the 2 billion yen ($24 million) milestone

Doraemon: Nobita and the Steel Troops - The New Age continues to hold well, and isn't far from the 2 billion yen milestone itself after 30 days in release.  The children's favorite will remain strong until the latest Detective Conan and Crayon Shin-chan films open later this month.

Opening with less than 100,000 admissions and 150,000,000 yen ($1.8 million), Tangled has rebounded better than any film this past month in terms of percentage increases and decreases.  

And with a multiplier now over ten, Walt Disney's 50th Animated Feature Film achieved two milestones this weekend hitting the 1 million admission mark, as well as crossing 1.5 billion yen ($18 million).  

 The Tourist also hit 1.5 billion yen ($18 million) this weekend after 30 days in release.  

And not to be left out in the achievements before it falls out of the Top 10, The King's Speech broke the 1 billion yen ($12 million) mark.

Sadly, the weekend did have one disappointment in High School Debut.  The romantic comedy based on the manga by Kazune Kawahara failed to open in the Top 10.
