>Bakuman, the live-action adaptation of the popular manga/anime series, debuts atop the box-office over the first weekend of October.

The film, starring Takeru Satoh and Ryunosuke Kamiki in the lead roles, sold 184,263 tickets across 325 screens over the weekend. The opening is decent, in-line with expectations, and fair for an October release, which is one of the weakest months of the year (June being the other). It'll have little trouble achieving the ¥1 billion milestone, and should be able to exceed ¥1.5 billion ($12 million+) as well.

>No Longer Heroine remains strong over its third weekend, selling an additional 148,356 tickets. Warner Bros.'s live-action adaptation of the shojo manga is well on its way to reaching the ¥2 billion milestone, and will likely become their biggest release of 2015.

>Arpeggio of Blue Steel - Ars Nova Cadenza was the only other weekend opener to make the top 10, and of the other candidates, it did so on the fewest screens.

The second Arpeggio of Blue Steel film sold 42,170 tickets on just 60 screens in its opening weekend, resulting in an extremely high avg. ticket price of ¥1,601. That's a good 5% higher than a typical 3D/Imax release with a favorable share in the premium formats.

>Jurassic World didn't hold on as well, or increase, as I was anticipating with the addition of 4DX showings, but is still hanging in there in its ninth weekend of release. It's on the cusp of reaching the ¥9 billion milestone and should do so before the upcoming weekend. The film is also within 1,000 admissions of hitting 6 million admissions.

>Outside the Top 10 - The Empire of Corpses came in 13th over the weekend in its debut on 72 screens, while Fathers and Daughters settled for a 14th place debut on 118 screens.

>Library Wars: The Last Mission is the second live-action adaptation of Hiro Arikawa's light novel series based on the Statement on Intellectual Freedom in Libraries, that went into effect in Japan in 1954 before being amended in 1979. The light novels are quite successful, and have spawned not only two live-action films, but also adaptations in nearly every other medium, including anime and manga releases.

The first film, released in April 2013, opened to ¥216.8 million (and finished with ¥1.72 billion), so the second film should be aiming for a debut above that figure, but probably not significantly higher.

>Fantastic Four will likely disappoint, I'm thinking a sub-¥200 million weekend, and possibly debut in third place or lower. The mediocre seating/showtime count is an indication that theaters are aware of this fact, too.

>The Intern is receiving a wider release than I was expecting and online signs are decent. I'd consider a debut above ¥100 million a success, and that's looking doable at the moment.

>And finally, the potential darkhorse of the weekend, is Gamba & His Friends.



It's the first Gamba film since 1991, and this new CGI 3D film has had a very long production, 10+ years, and carries a very high budget of ¥2 billion (3x the average budget). The budget can certainly be seen in the footage, but with a budget that high, it better hope for the best over the weekend.

>Library Wars: The Last Mission will debut atop the box office quite-handily, and pre-sales and morning/afternoon showings suggest it could even reach ¥300 million ($2.5 million) over the weekend. Not only would this be very good for a October release, but it'd also be nearly 40% above the opening of its predecessor, too.

>The Intern was looking good prior to the weekend, and its pre-sales/morning ticket sales confirms it's indeed doing pretty well. There's a possibility it'll debut in second place, but I don't want to go that far yet as it could be skewing toward an older audience, which would mean its evening business will be weak.

>Fantastic Four is a dub, and it's easy to already call it such due to its poor Friday opening (second place with maybe ¥30 million ($250,000)) and very lackluster pre-sales going into the weekend. I'm actually doubting its chances of reaching the ¥100 million mark over the weekend, which would be embarrassing.

>Gamba & His Friends is, unfortunately, not looking too good. I'm sure its Sunday will greatly outpace its Saturday business, as most animated films follow this trend (especially if they skew very young), but it's still going to have a poor opening. There's going to be a lot of money lost on this film, unless it garners international success somewhere...

>And finally, The Laws of the Universe - Part 0 might crack the Top 10. I hadn't considered it having any potential until I saw that it's playing on 170 screens. That's low, but above the standard for these types of anime films. And the pre-sales are also decent enough that it might bump Unfair: The End out of the Top 10.

This Monday is a National Holiday (Health and Sports Day), so weekend actuals will be delayed until Tuesday.

>Strong first day for Library Wars: The Last Mission. It should clear 200,000 admissions over the weekend frame without any issues, and could come in closer to 250,000. It's likely to clear the ¥300 million ($2.5 million) mark as a result, very good for a October release, and a 40% increase over its predecessor's opening is looking good.

>The Intern is also doing well, and might manage a ¥150 million+ ($1.3 million) debut. That would increase the chances of it possibly becoming a ¥1 billion earner, a milestone that few expected the film to even have. Quite nice.

>Fantastic Four bombs, and is very unlikely to even open to ¥100 million (more like ¥80/90 million, or $700,000).

That is pretty amazing how The Intern, a ten-to-a-dozen comedy drama, is looking to gross 10x as much as blockbuster superhero movie, Fantastic Four.

Well, superhero films are rarely successful in Japan. Only Spider-Man, and the most recent Iron Man and The Avengers films can be considered hits (excluding 80's Batman and Superman II).

Imported-comedies are also an unpopular genre, but The Intern does have some star power, with Anne Hathaway and Robert De Niro, to help propel it. Star power still plays an important role in the Japanese market.

Hathaway is somewhat popular in Japan thanks to roles in The Devil Wears Prada, Alice in Wonderland, and Les Miserables. She is also featured in Japanese magazines and commercials from time-to-time. And De Niro is known for a wide array of roles throughout his career.

Also, there was an issue collecting admissions data from Toho Cinemas on Sunday, and without them, it makes gathering weekend estimates difficult/inaccurate, so I didn't bother yesterday. And since Monday was a national holiday, weekend actuals have been delayed by one day. I'll post the weekend results and 2015 charts either late tonight, if actuals come in during the early morning, or tomorrow.

I'm a bit late reporting this, but Paramount Pictures has entered an agreement with local distributor Toho-Towa to begin the distribution of their films in Japan beginning on February 1st, 2016,

Toho-Towa also distributes Universal's films, ever since 2007, and now they'll be handling Paramount's films, too.

Toho-Towa, founded in 1928, is the subsidiary company of Japan's leading film distributor, and second largest cinema chain operator, Toho.

Yeah. Universal did the same in 2007, and that was definitely for the best since Toho-Towa has made many of their films hits or blockbusters in the market.

Japan's become a rough market for non-local studios in recent years. I don't think they know how to effectively market/release their films in the market anymore. Disney is honestly the only one that's remaining competitive.

Warner Bros. has also had major problems distributing their imported films since Harry Potter ended (Gravity is their only real imported success since then), but rather than end their distribution in the market, they've shifted their focus toward the release of more local films, which has proven key to their recent success in Japan. If No Longer Heroine passes American Sniper, which is looking likely, 2015 will be the fourth-consecutive year a local film they've distributed was their top earner in the market.

>Library Wars: The Last Mission delivered the easy weekend victory, opening 52% higher than its predecessor from two years ago.

The second live-action adaptation based on Hiro Arikawa's light novel series sold 246,395 admissions over the weekend frame across 323 screens. Not only is the initial growth over its predecessor quite impressive, but this level of a debut is also fairly strong for a October release. There's a good chance it'll manage to reach the ¥2 billion milestone which is, again, nice for this time of year.

>Bakuman held a lot better than I was expecting heading into the weekend, and even throughout the weekend. The live-action adaptation of the popular manga/anime sold a further 155,656 tickets over its second weekend, exceeding 500,000 after nine-days in release.

A sub-20% drop is impressive, and proves that it'll be a weekend film since its weekdays were somewhat weak. It'll probably reach the ¥1.5 billion mark, but not much more.

>The Intern appeared to be heading for an impressive second place debut, but had to settle for third place instead.

However, its third place ranking doesn't take away from the success of its debut. Playing on 272 screens, the Hathaway/Niro lead comedy sold 138,771 admissions over the weekend. It's rare for imported-comedies to find an audience in Japan, so this opening is certainly a success for Warner Bros. and could result in another ¥1 billion earner for them this year.

>While the Library Wars sequel delivered an impressive debut, The Laws of the Universe - Part 0 was definitely the biggest surprise this weekend. I really, really underestimated the potential it had going into the weekend.

Opening on 172 screens, the anime film sold 85,495 tickets over the weekend, earning itself a Top 5 debut. Bravo.

>And as a result, Fantastic Four actually missed the Top 10 in its opening weekend...

The superhero reboot bombed, selling only 70,761 tickets over the weekend frame on 639 screens. It's going to be lucky to even reach ¥500 million, if it can stay in the Top 10 long enough to maintain a sufficent enough of screens/showtimes.

>Gamba & His Friends also got off to a poor start, which is certainly disappointing for everyone involved in film's very long production (10+ years).

The 3D animated film, and the first Gamba film since 1991, sold a measly 58,740 tickets across 596 screens. It also cost a reported ¥2 billion, meaning it'll need to find significant success overseas to recover any of that.

Corpse, do you have box office track record for Sora Aoi? I know she did some non-porn movies, and wondered if they got released in cinemas...

I'll respond to this later this week, possibly tomorrow. I know that several films starring her, in non-porn roles, have received theatrical releases. However, I only noticed two or three from non-independent studios, so box office numbers are likely to be scant.

The only film that I can find any box office numbers for starring Sora Aoi is 2006's critically acclaimed Memories of Matsuko, directed by acclaimed director Tetsuya Nakashima, which earned a nice ¥1.31 billion ($11.5 million) in 2006.

I'm not sure what her role was in the film, but it wasn't leading or a notable supporting role either. I haven't seen the film, but there were some models cast, so I'm assuming she was a model or something in the film.

But she has been in many theatrically released films, some bordering on porn like Big Tits Zombies, and others being your more traditional releases.
