New Year's Eve is the weakest day during the Christmas/New Year holidays, so this is an expected result. New Year's Eve is the biggest holiday in Japan, and they have many celebrations. Don't want to see any "but why isn't it bigger?" comments.

but why isn't it bigger?

My 34.5 billion prediction by the end of the week is looking pretty good.

Happy new year (asia time)

yes probably more even Friday > Wednesday. This Friday will be big.

Oh no, will these small Friday and Sat PS put its chances of passing SA in Jeopardy

Just worried if trend is so downward that following days see negative collection.

Happy New Year everyone
Imma still very happy with the holiday's results of KnY nonetheless

I don't think anyone is really worried it's just that we always want more and sometimes we want a little too much, we are greedy.

Note: Mon.-Fri. are rounded estimates (excluding Holiday Mondays), therefore adding up each day won't equal the actual total.

So this weekend is the last weekend at #1 ? The number of weekends # 1 consecutively is one of the only records Demon Slayer will not break, but understandably Titanic is unbeatable on this subject.

Is there any promotion/Advertisement for this movie in Japan?

I mean, the original Train to Busan didn't do well back in 2017, but after the success of Parasite, perhaps...

I'm not really sure to be honest. I don't know much about the film. I see that reviews are very mixed, and it doesn't have an impressive box office anywhere (understandable, of course), so it probably didn't generate much interest based on this. And from the images I've seen, it looks fairly violent. Generally violet films with gore and such don't do well, as the Japanese tend to favor more suspenseful and/or thriller themed horror films.

And quick note about today: Some theaters open later on New Year's Day (10/11am), so the early morning sales will appear "low", so wait until at least 1/2pm to get an idea on how the day may progress.

Is that a confirmation of anime?

What is that ?

Just a Happy New Year message.

finger gross if the sudden rise in COVID cases in these recent days will affect the box office really........

Unlike you I hope it does not impact BO

Happy New year everyone on this thread. Thanks for joining the forum and making this thread so lively and special thanks to Demon Slayer for keeping the BO fire alive.

Its already near 3 months after the release so the average point for the movie in almost websites more or less fixed, won't change anymore, so we have:

Filmarks :4.1/5
Yahoo Japan Movie: 4.03/5
Eiga: 4/5
Kinetone: 80.6/100

I would say these average points are in the range good-very good.
The impressive thing here is that DS is the movie which got most reivew times there (make sense since it is the highest grossing movie in Japan now) and has still maintained the average point that high. Because the more review times a movie got, the average point tends to be lower and lower.

Averaging a 4+ is great. 4.5 is pretty much as high as anything can achieve.

Which time can be mid point of today (Friday) ?
