Great. I agree dubbed versions ruin the overall experience

Is there possible to have a movie which beat Spirited Away (¥30B/$250M/23.5M atmits) in the future?

It'll probably be beaten eventually, but I don't believe it'll be anytime soon. However, if it's not beaten in the next 10-years, it could hold onto the record for a very, very long time, basically for the foreseeable future (40+ years from today, or for most of our lifetimes). The declining population in Japan will likely impact the box-office at some point.

The Japan box-office has been seeing growth in recent years (2019 was the biggest ever, with the highest admissions since 1971) despite the declining population, but there may come a time in the next 10-20 years where the box-office does begin to suffer as the population decline accelerates. If nothing changes, the population is expected to decline by around 1 million people every year beginning this decade and lose 15-20 million people by 2040. Japan's population declined by 512,000 in 2019, with the lowest birth rate since 1874.

How do you live? is not exactly the kind of movie that will make a lot of money. But if somehow Hayao Miyazaki can exceed himself, and get full government support, and win win Oscars best animated feature, best foreign film, and nominated in best picture, I could see that as a chance to beat Spirited Away.

Estimated figures. First place in the 6th week of release, "Parasite Semi-Underground Family" admitted 259,000 people on Saturdays and Sundays and earned 372 million yen. Total number of admissions exceeded 1.78 million by 2/16 & gross nears 2.5 billion yen.

Superb numbers for Parasite, very strong holds incoming and a great finish is on the cards.

Estimated figures. Coming up second, 1917 The Tomorrow's Commander admitted 124,000 people on Saturdays and Sundays and earned 181 million yen. 178,000 people admitted for a total of 3 days of opening, revenue 253 million yen.

Solid numbers for an older-skewing flick, should finish solidly.


"Anna and the Snow Queen 2" has surpassed 10.34 million admissions and 13.211 million yen in revenues as of 2/16. Theatrical screening was announced to end on 3/12.

Drop this week helped by the first Oscar performance of a Japanese singer who voiced the animated protagonist this past week. Still, this is overall an embarassing decline from Anna and the Snow Queen back in 2014, Disney should rethink how they do the musical numbers for Anna and the Snow Queen 3 in the future or face a further humiliating decline in this market. This would be a great number for most franchises but for this one, sequel to a true American pop culture phenomenon in Japan, this is sad and underwhelming.

>Parasite rises to the top of the box-office in its sixth-weekend of release, experiencing a huge weekend increase following its incredible Oscar wins and an expansion as a result. The Best Picture winner sold 178,000 admissions over the weekend frame across its new screen count of 277, bringing its cumulative admissions up to 1.78 million. Expect another strong week at the box-office, with the possibility of another weekly increase in its seventh week of release. We'll have to wait a few more weeks to see when it peaks and begins to decline before giving an accurate total projection, but a finish around ¥4 billion ($35-40 million) is likely, but it could go higher.

>1917 had to settle for a second place debut, selling 124,000 admissions over the weekend across 353 screens; it sold 178,102 admissions over its first three-days in release. This is a so-so debut, one that was likely deflated by losing out on any major Oscar wins last Sunday. It'll have good weekday business due to attracting an older audience, but I also don't believe legs will be anything amazing since Parasite has really overshadowed it. It'll be aiming for a total around the ¥1 billion ($10 million) milestone.

>Howling Village held spectacularly well in its sophomore frame. Its opening weekend was impressive and certainly welcomed by distributor Toei, but this second weekend is more impressive and should allow the film to reach the ¥1 billion ($10 million) milestone now.

>Frozen II held strong in its thirteenth-weekend of release, and has now become the seventeenth-highest grossing film of all-time, surpassing Bohemian Rhapsody. Expect a total between ¥13.3-13.4 billion ($122/123 million). I know that its performance is being written off as disappointing, even "embarrassing", and I will agree that it's underwhelming, but it's far from an embarrassing performance. A 40% drop-off (giving it ¥15/16 billion) was very expected as a follow-up to a phenomenon, which have always dropped off by that much, so a 47/48% decline, while higher than expected, isn't "sad" and can certainly be attributed to its poor November release date, 6-weeks out from any holiday in the market.

>Cats experienced another rough drop this weekend, and I don't believe Japan will lay claim as its biggest overseas market (currently the U.K.) now. Still, given how poorly received and how awful its numbers were everywhere else, a total a bit above ¥1.3 billion ($12 million) is respectable in that regard. I don't think another attempt at a Cats adaptation will be in the works for quite some time, but hopefully Hollywood (or whoever) does it differently next time--there's easy money to be made from it in the market.

>My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising, now outside of the Top 15 in its ninth-weekend of release, surpassed the total of its predecessor over the weekend and has sold 1.31 million admissions.

Frozen II will likely remain in the Top 10 in its 14th week, and has a 50/50 chance I'd say of achieving a 15th week in the Top 10.

Cats performance while good in the market in comparison isn't that great specially its legs in Japan. Goes to show the reception isn't good anywhere.

And yeah Frozen 2 is still doing amazing numbers

So will Parasite become the highest-grossing BP winner here since ROTK? And where would it rank for BP winners overall?

So far I can see Titanic, ROTK, Forrest Gump, and Schindler's List above it from the last 30 years (although not sure if there is data for all the 90s winners, like American Beauty).

Seems like it could surpass Schindler's List in USD?

It's the follow-up, conclusion film set 10-years after the preceding six films in the Digimon Avdventure tri saga that were released between 2015-2018.

It's a limited release, only playing at 48 locations, but I believe it's on track to open higher than any of the six tri films. I'll go back and see how they debuted, but I remember that the last few either just barely made the Top 10 or fell a bit shy. Last Evolution Kizuna looks like it may be aiming for the Top 5 this weekend.

Someone on BOT said they think the spread of Coronavirus is going to start impacting box office in Japan.

Has there been any news about it spreading at a quicker rate in Japan now?

>Parasite will repeat atop the box-office for a second-consecutive weekend, its seventh weekend in release. It increased nearly 200% last weekend, so a 30% decline or so is perfectly reasonable. It will become the highest-grossing South Korean film in the market after this weekend as well, surpassing 2005's A Moment to Remember.

>Stolen Identity 2 looks to come in below its predecessor, but the forecast would still a decent enough start for a sequel to a mediocre performing original.

>Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna is the conclusion film to the six-part Digimon Adventure tri film saga that was released over the past five years, and fittingly given its finale factor, looks to debut higher than any of the six Adventure tri films--but not by much. Digimon Adventure tri: Part 1 - Reunion currently has the biggest opening with ¥43.6 million ($356,000), but it failed to make the Top 10 (debuting in 11th), so Last Evolution Kizuna should become the first to actually make the Top 10.
