Weekend Forecast (07/12-13)

01 (01) ¥526 million ($5.2 million), -24%, ¥1.85 billion ($18.2 million), Maleficent (Disney) Week 2
02 (02) ¥182 million ($1.8 million), -30%, ¥850 million ($8.3 million), Edge of Tomorrow (Warner Bros.) week 2
03 (--) ¥165 million ($1.6 million), 0, ¥165 million ($1.6 million), Say, "I Love You" (Shochiku) NEW
04 (03) ¥147 million ($1.4 million), -20%, ¥24.95 billion ($244.8 million), Frozen (Disney) Week 18
05 (04) ¥85 million ($830,000), -28%, ¥1.10 billion ($10.7 million), Mission Impossible: Samurai (Shochiku) Week 4
06 (06) ¥59 million ($570,000), -18%, ¥160 million ($1.5 million), Anpanman: The Appleboy and Everyone's Wishes! (Tokyo Theaters, Co.) Week 2
07 (05) ¥49 million ($480,000), -34%, ¥475 million ($4.6 million), Thirst (Gaga) Week 3
08 (07) ¥42 million ($410,000), -40%, ¥320 million ($3.1 million), The Grudge: The Beginning of the End (Showgate) Week 3
09 (--) ¥35 million ($340,000), 0, ¥45 million ($440,000), Divergent (Kadokawa) NEW
10 (08) ¥29 million ($280,000), -43%, ¥390 million ($3.8 million), Transcendence (Shochiku/Pony Canyon) Week 3

The weekend should have some strong holds with just one notable opener, and most holdovers are maintaining the same screen counts/showtimes as last weekend or seeing increases (Maleficent is even receiving a screen and showtime bump despite already playing very wide) because of this.

Saturday attendance may be a little subdued from people staying indoors from the Super Typhoon that hit the southern regions of Japan this week (its currently a Tropical Storm moving away from Japan), but Sunday should recover.

>Maleficent should be able to stay above ¥500 million ($5 million), though if it misses, it'll just barely do so. A drop over 30% looks pretty unlikely.

>Say, "I Love You" will easily be the top debut of the weekend with only Divergent (Which will bomb ala Twilight/The Hunger Games/all YA) as competition. Pre-sales looked decent, but they kinda slacked off heading into Saturday. It's probably going to fall below ¥200 million ($2 million) for the weekend, but I hope it can manage to reach the mark since Sota Fukushi is quite hot.
Spoiler: show

>Also, The Documentary of AKB48: The Time Has Come debuted in 10th place last weekend with ¥44 million. I see that some stage greetings are either taking place on Friday or Saturday, and if the are occurring on Saturday, then it'll definitely stay in the Top 10 by barely decreasing or likely seeing a small increase.

Alright, so the stage greetings are taking place today (Saturday) so take Transcendence out of the Top 10, and AKB48 should rank 8th-10th in its second weekend.

Algren pretty much picked the next films in line, though One Piece Film Z and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 are above Bayside Shakedown: The Final. ;) All those films, except Bayside Shakedown: The Final, are between 5.58-5.86 million admissions.

But it's Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides (5.86 million), followed by Umizaru 4: Brave Hearts (5.75 million).

Weekend Estimates (07/12-13)

01 (01) ¥553 million ($5.4 million), -20%, ¥1.85 billion ($18.3 million), Maleficent (Disney) Week 2
02 (--) ¥220 million ($2.1 million), 0, ¥220 million ($2.1 million), Say, "I Love You" (Shochiku) DEBUT
03 (02) ¥184 million ($1.8 million), -29%, ¥860 million ($8.4 million), Edge of Tomorrow (Warner Bros.) Week 2
04 (03) ¥129 million ($1.2 million), -29%, ¥24.90 billion ($244.3 million), Frozen (Disney) Week 18
05 (04) ¥80 million ($790,000), -32%, ¥1.09 billion ($10.7 million), Mission Impossible: Samurai (Shochiku) Week 4
06 (07) ¥66 million ($650,000), -05%, ¥340 million ($3.2 million), The Grudge: The Beginning of the End (Showgate) Week 3
07 (05) ¥52 million ($510,000), -29%, ¥490 million ($4.7 million), Thirst (Gaga) Week 3
08 (--) ¥49 million ($480,000), 0, ¥65 million ($630,000), Divergent (Kadokawa) DEBUT
09 (06) ¥44 million ($430,000), -32%, ¥140 million ($1.3 million), Anpanman: The Apple Boy and Everyone's Wishes (Tokyo Theaters, Co.) Week 2
10 (08) ¥23 million ($220,000), -54%, ¥380 million ($3.6 million), Transcendence (Shochiku/Pony Canyon) Week 3

>Maleficent holds strong, achieving a second weekend above the ¥500 million mark. Second weekend drops in the 20% range is common for bigger openers, and they tend to have healthy legs for the remainder of their runs. The film should be near ¥1.9 billion ($18/19 million) now after 9-days, which should get it to ¥4.5 billion-5.0 billion ($45-50 million).

>Say, "I Love You" looks to have gotten off to a nice start, though I'm kinda worried its avg. ticket price will be much lower than normal from an audiences largely consisting of couples or high school/university students. It could come in below ¥200 million ($2 million). Either an opening over/under ¥200 million should get it above ¥1 billion ($10 million) though.

>Edge of Tomorrow gets a solid second weekend that should lock up a total of ¥1.5 billion ($15 million) or better. ¥2 billion ($20 million) also remains doable.

>Divergent bombed as expected with a debut comparable to the The Hunger Games films.

>The Grudge somehow got itself a sub-10% drop after a sub-20% drop last weekend... I don't know what's going on with this film, but I may look into given its very bizarre holds.

>Anpanman also had a strange second weekend drop above 30%. The films very regularly manage second weekend drops of 20% or better (though a couple have went above 20%), and I can't recall any dropping this much before.

Good for Edge but I don't see how it reaches $20m when it's only at $8.4m coming off a $1.8m weekend.

Most films get a 2-week total multiplier of ~x2.2 , which would place Edge of Tomorrow around ¥1.8/1.9 billion ($18/19 million). Now, the film had previews which will decrease the multiplier a bit making a total of ¥1.5/1.6 billion ($15/16 million) more likely, however, that should be countered by the upcoming weeks since...

The summer box-office season hasn't begun yet in Japan. Everyone is still in school/university, and deadlines are pretty intense in the workplace right now. Next Monday (Umi no Hi), July 21st, marks the beginning of the summer season. Weekdays will start accounting for ~55-60% or better of a film's weekly figures next week through late August. The next 6 weeks are the strongest weeks at the Japanese box-office.

¥2 billion ($20 million) will be a challenge, especially since films in release prior to the Umi no Hi Weekend have trouble playing for long (a lot of big new releases are planned for mid/late July through late August), but I'm pretty sure it'll be closer to that mark than ¥1.5 billion ($15 million).

The Summer season starts a similar time as it does in the UK. But I think Edge might be a little old by that point, no?

Perhaps, and it does have to deal with a lot of major releases coming up over the next few weeks.

Memories of Marnie, Pokemon XY, Godzilla, Rurouni Kenshin, Transformers and Doraemon are all likely $30 million+ earners at the very least, and they're being released in a span of 4 weeks. And there is also 4 or 5 likely $10/15 million+ earners among them, too, so competition for screens will be tough for any film released before July 19th. I fully expect any film that was released in May or June to see severe screen loss this weekend.

Edge of Tomorrow should still benefit from being a more adult, male-oriented action film, though.

Besides I guess Godzilla and maybe Rurouni Kenshin, there's little for your average older male this Summer. Studio Ghibli films attract a 4-quadrant audience, but Memories of Marnie should have much stronger young girl/general female appeal than perhaps any of their past films given the two main characters are girls.

Weekend Ranking (07/12-13)

Image

01 (01) Maleficent (Disney) Week 2
02 (02) Edge of Tomorrow (Warner Bros.) Week 2
03 (--) Say, "I Love You" (Shochiku) DEBUT
04 (03) Frozen (Disney) Week 18
05 (04) Mission Impossible: Samurai (Shochiku) Week 4
06 (07) The Grudge: The Beginning of the End (Showgate) Week 3
07 (06) Anpanman: The Apple Boy and Everyone's Wishes (Tokyo Theaters, Co.) Week 2
08 (05) Thirst (Gaga) Week 3
09 (--) Divergent (Kadokawa) DEBUT
10 (--) K: Missing Kings (Movic) DEBUT


>Maleficent held very strong in its second week, dropping just 13% to earn ¥604,556,200 ($6.0 million) with 434,129 admissions. After 9-days, its total is up to ¥1.97 billion ($19.4 million) and 1.45 million admissions. A total of ¥4.5 billion ($45 million) is pretty much locked now, and a total above ¥5 billion ($50 million+) is looking more likely making Japan its best market overseas.

>Say, "I Love You debuted in third place (second in admissions) with ¥159,590,500 ($1.5 million) and 135,801 admissions on 246 screens. As I suspected, teens and young couples were the primary audiences with an avg. ticket price of just ¥1,175 ($11.6), about 10% below the national average. It's still a decent start and should end up a little above ¥1 billion ($10/11 million).

>Frozen slides to 4th place in its 18th-week of release, and has now grossed ¥24.88 billion ($244.2 million) and 19.55 million admissions. It is still the #3 film of all-time in revenue, but it did surpass Tokyo Olympiad (19.50 million) in admissions to become the #2 most-attended film of all-time behind Spirited Away (23.5 million).

>Mission Impossible: Samurai exceeded the ¥1 billion ($10 million) mark after 4 weeks in release with an ¥84 million ($830,000) weekend. Its weekly numbers are still high enough that it could reach ¥1.5 billion ($15 million).

>Divergent finally made it to Japan and few cared. The film only took in ¥40,672,500 ($401,000) with 31,382 admissions on 199 screens. The debut was 11% behind the opening of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire last December. After Twilight, The Hunger Games, Beautiful Creatures, and now Divergent, it's clear the YA genre isn't going to catch on here and I bet they'll have issues seeing a theatrical release soon since they keep opening lower and lower to the point of struggling to make the Top 10.

>K: Missing Kings makes a surprised 10th place debut. No weekend figures are available, but it was able to make the Top 10 on just 33 screens. This is also the first time I've ever seen a Movic release make the Top 10, or anywhere close to it.

With the exception of Maleficent, the box-office has been in its usual pre-Summer slump, but the Summer season officially begins this upcoming weekend with Studio Ghibli's new film, Memories of Marnie, the first Pokemon XY series film, Pokemon XY: The Cocoon of Destruction & Diancie, a new Kamen Rider film, and Disney's Planes: Fire & Rescue. And the big releases won't stop until late August with Godzilla, Rurouni Kenshin: The Great Kyoto Fire Arc, Transformers: Age of Extinction, Stand By Me, Doraemon, and more to come.

Post Re: Japan Box Office: Weekend Ranking (07/12-13)
Widest-Opening Day Releases - Toho Cinemas [# of showings since 2013]
608 - Monsters University (07/06/13)
600 - Memories of Marnie (07/19/14)
566 - The Wind Rises (07/20/13)
555 - Maleficent (07/05/14)
547 - Midsummer Equation (06/29/13)
522 - Frozen (03/15/14)

Marnie certainly has enough required showings to deliver at the box-office. It's widest release this year at Toho Cinemas, and their widest since Monsters University. Now we have to see if its non-fantasy story can produce a bit hit. 600 showings is very, very high without 3D or subtitled showings increasing the overall number.

As for the rest:

Toho Cinemas - Saturday # of Showings:
600 - Memories of Marnie (NEW)
486 (-21%) - Maleficent (Week 3)
327 - Pokemon XY: The Cocoon of Destruction & Diancie (NEW) *Franchise standard, 325-350*
271 - Kamen Rider Gaim the Movie: The Great Soccer Match! The Golden Fruit Cup (NEW) *Franchise standard, 250-275*
250 - Planes: Fire & Rescue (NEW) *Average*

228 (-27%) - Edge of Tomorrow (Week 3)
185 (-23%) - Say, "I Love You" (Week 2)
155 (-32%) - Frozen (Week 19)
131 (-35%) - Thirst (Week 4)
114 (-21%) - Mission Impossible: Samurai (Week 5)
110 (-51%) - Divergent (Week 2)
79 (-21%) - Anpanman: The Apple Boy and Everyone's Wishes (Week 3)
77 (-45%) - Transcendence (Week 4)
70 (-50%) - Noah (Week 6)
60 (-62%) - The Documentary of AKB48: The Time Has Come (Week 3)
59 (-48%) - Climbing to Spring (Week 7)
9 (-85%) - A Bolt from the Blue (Week 9)

Losing: Miss Granny (Week 2), The Grudge: The Beginning of the End (Week 4), The Round Table (Week 4), Saint Seiya: Legend of Sanctuary (Week 5), The Grand Budapest Hotel (Week 5).
