Speaking of Belle, do you guys prefer to see the "generic" English titles like it for Japanese films intended for international audiences, or the romanticized version of a Japanese title that translates them almost directly into English?

Most of the time the title remains either close enough or not drastically different (often shortening the Japanese title since they tend to be long), but "Belle" is a VERY different title from the Japanese (romaji) one, "The Dragon and the Freckled Princess."

Unless the romanticized title is "weird" (not making much sense in English due to the more direct translation), I try to use them when reasonable, but "Belle" and "The Dragon and the Freckled Princess" are much different than the regular case in this situation.

Definitely not the same change as some of Hosoda's previous films, "The Wolf Children Ame and Yuki" becoming "Wolf Children" or "Mirai of the Future" becoming "Mirai."

I believe it was the same deal with Frozen being called Anna and the Snow Queen in Japan. I think using Belle makes more sense since that's the title people outside Japan know it by, and many readers on this site would probably be unfamiliar with the romaji title.

Just waiting for a few more figures to be released, and the first weekend update (by me at least) since June will be posted.

Quick note in case it goes unnoticed in my analysis for the weekend (which is much longer than normal): Free Guy opened, and it was Disney's widest release in Japan since Star Wars 9 in 2019, thanks to not debuting on Disney+ thus avoiding the boycott all the others have experienced this year. It didn't do very well (though honestly decent enough in the market I think given the type of film it is), but it was their third biggest opener since 2019, though that bar is VERY low right now for Disney.

What happened to The Seven Deadly Sins: Cursed by the Light? It seemed to have gotten off to a good start

do you know how its profit is going and if it is superior to the previous film, Prisoners of Sky?

Uemarasan shared its opening weekend last month:

¥92,856,660 (2-day)/¥121,563,460 (3-day)/98,000 admissions (3-day)—Seven Deadly Sins: Cursed by the Light

I wasn't keeping track of anything when it opened or for a month+ after it opened, so I don't know for sure how it performed after that. However, it dropped out of the Top 10 in its second weekend, meaning it dropped 50%+. Assuming it was fairly frontloaded, I'd guess it finished around ¥400 ($3.5-4 million) or so. If I ever come across a report with its total, I'll try to remember and post it.

I don't know anything about its quality. There are many anime fans on here though, so maybe someone else can answer that question (and maybe they know what it finished with too).

(Welcome to the forum, by the way.)

F9: The Fast Saga remained atop the weekend box-office, and enjoyed a good second weekend hold, dropping 29% by selling 243,084 admissions in its sophomore frame. That brings the ninth entry in the main Fast Saga up to 1.43 million admissions after just 10-days thanks to a lucrative Obon Festival holiday week. We need to see how it holds after another week or two post-holiday, but where it stands now, it has a good chance to outgross Furious 7's ¥3.54 billion ($29.2 million) to become the second highest-grossing film in the saga. The Fate of the Furious is the biggest with ¥4.05 billion ($36.2 million), which isn't completely out of reach, but it will require a really, really good week three and four to get there. Still, becoming the second (slight chance at third) biggest film in the series will be a huge accomplishment.

Belle saw a weekend increase in its fifth weekend, rising up to second place by selling 169,000 admissions, bringing its 32-day admissions up to 3.41 million. It's ¥1.1 billion away now from outgrossing The Boy and the Beast to become Mamoru Hosoda's highest-grossing film, which is all but assured. Legs have been very good, and with a couple more weeks of summer dailies remaining, it should comfortably get above ¥6 billion (~$55 million) in the next two or three weeks.

My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission saw a rough 51% drop in its second outing, but that's honestly fairly decent given its a fanbase-driven franchise that also has (had) a major giveaway going on over its opening weekend/first week of release. It sold 161,000 admissions over its second weekend, bringing its 10-day admissions up to 1.28 million. This is very strong, as it's almost matched the total of both its predecessors already. It'll outgross both of them in the coming days, and should be aiming for ¥2.5 billion (~$25 million) or a bit more, or roughly 40/50% higher than its predecessors. Big win here.

Crayon Shin-chan: Shrouded in Mystery! Flowers of Tenkazu Academy exceeded ¥1.1 billion over its third weekend of release, surpassing the total of last year's film already after 17-days (it actually surpassed it a few days earlier, around day 14 or 15 perhaps). It will probably get above ¥1.5 billion (~$15 million), which is pretty close to the long-running franchise's average gross. This is a sharp turnaround from last year's film which families avoided due to COVID concerns (like nearly all other young-skewing films in 2020).

The Suicide Squad mostly disappointed. Playing very wide on 749 screens, it sold just 81,000 admissions over the weekend frame, and 134,543 admissions over its first three-days in release. It's an extreme 67% lower than the first Suicide Squad, but the first Suicide Squad is actually DC's second biggest opener in Japan. (Will Smith is a good draw.) So it had a high ceiling to fall from. It is at least higher than Wonder Woman 1984 and BARELY higher than Birds of Prey (though it opened on the first weekend where restrictions and closures began in 2020), so some slight progress for the DCEU here.

Tokyo Revengers is still doing very well, exceeding ¥3.5 billion and 2.7 million admissions. It's still well on track to reach the ¥4 billion milestone, giving Warner Bros. their second ¥4 billion hit of the year after part one of the Rurouni Kenshin finale.

The Great Yokai War: Guardians disappointed, borderline bombing. I'd call it a bomb. Its weekend admissions weren't even released, which is definitely a sign of disappointment considering it was a wide release co-distributed by Toho. It sold 98,724 admissions over its first three-days in release on 374 screens though, which is also really bad. I don't know the budget here, but it looks like something that probably cost a fair bit (perhaps upwards of ¥1 billion). Toho can afford a bomb once in awhile, but definitely a hit for Kadokawa.

Free Guy basically bombed, but...maybe performed okay? I personally think it performed a little better than I would have predicted before seeing the numbers anyway. It's Disney's widest release since 2019 due to not being boycotted (since it didn't debut on Disney+), playing on 524 screens. Weekend admissions aren't available, but it did sell 86,870 admissions over its first three days. Again, not particularly good or anything close, but a film such as this probably wouldn't be doing too much better anyway, in my opinion, in Japan. Just annoying that THIS is the one Disney film that didn't debut on Disney+. Any other film would have performed better (a LOT better due to the boycott) without Disney+ in the market.

Fast & Furious Box-Office History

OPENINGS:
¥633.4 million ($5.6 million) / 420,058 - The Fate of the Furious (2017)
¥548.3 million ($4.6 million) / 385,428 - Furious 7 (2015)
¥535.1 million ($4.8 million) / 351,848 - F9: The Fast Saga (2021)
¥503.7 million ($4.7 million) / 331,000 - The Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019)
¥445.6 million ($4.5 million) / 330,385 - Fast and Furious 6 (2013)
¥217.1 million ($2.8 million) / 185,558 - Fast Five (2011)
¥214.2 million ($2.4 million) / 160,209 - Fast & Furious (2009)
¥167.7 million ($1.4 million) / 128,211 - The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006)
¥138.9 million ($1.2 million) / 107,000 - 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)


TOTALS:
¥4.05 billion ($36.2 million) / 2.80 million - The Fate of the Furious (2017)
¥3.54 billion ($29.2 million) / 2.53 million - Furious 7 (2015)
¥3.06 billion ($28.7 million) / 2.13 million - Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019)
¥2.18 billion ($19.9 million) / 1.43 million - F9: The Fast Saga (2021) *10-Days in Release*
¥2.02 billion ($20.6 million) / 1.60 million - Fast and Furious 6 (2013)
¥1.44 billion ($18.7 million) / 1.10 million - Fast Five (2011)
¥1.00 billion ($8.4 million) / 770,000 - The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006)
~¥950 million ($10.4 million) / ~715,000 - Fast & Furious (2009)
~¥775 million ($6.8 million) / ~595,000 - 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)


F9: The Fast Saga is aiming to outgross Furious 7 to become the second biggest film in the series. Not guaranteed, but another good hold this upcoming week (or two) should make it achievable.

Note: No Opening Weekend or Total figures or estimates available for The Fast and Furious (2001). It did open at #8 over the Oct. 20-21, 2001 weekend, but fell out of the Top 10 in its second weekend. There is a note in the opening weekend report on Fast & Furious (2009) marked the fourth-consecutive increase for the series over its opening weekend, so using this knowledge, the first film opened below (and likely finished below) 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003).

My Hero Academia Box-Office History:

OPENINGS:
¥454.0 million ($4.1 million) / 335,000 - My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission (2021)
¥287.1 million ($2.6 million) / 224,697 - My Hero Academia: Two Heroes (2018)
¥283.0 million ($2.6 million) / 224,000 - My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising (2019)


TOTALS:
¥1.79 billion ($16.3 million) / 1.35 million - My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising (2019)
¥1.72 billion ($15.6 million) / 1.37 million - My Hero Academia: Two Heroes (2018)
¥1.67 billion ($15.2 million) / 1.28 million - My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission (2021) *10-Days in Release*


Pretty dominating performance here by the third film. Easy out-opened both of its predecessors, and its two-week total almost matched their final totals. It'll become the #1 film in the series before its third weekend even begins, perhaps on Wednesday or Thursday. I'm expecting a finish around ¥2.5 billion / 1.9 million admissions.

Yeah that's a clear sign that the MHA series is still growing. It helps that the series is great and very different handling of a familiar and hot-right-now subject matter. I'm happy it's doing so well.

The preliminary weekend numbers for The Suicide Squad, Free Guy, and Great Yokai Wars have been updated in the Weekend Actuals post above. SS basically stayed the same (thus keeping its 4th place debut), while Free Guy increased a bit and Great Yokai Wars dropped a little.

Post Re: Japan Box-Office: Weekend Actuals (08/14-15); Charts Upd
My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission will expand to 4DX/MX4D screens on August 28th.

The 4DX/MX4D screens are currently divided up between F9, The Suicide Squad, Belle, and Pui Pui Molcar (no idea why or how this one got them). Belle has had them for awhile now, so it'll probably lose most/all of its 4DX screens by then, as well as The Suicide Squad (since it didn't open very well), and the few Pui Pui Molcar currently has. F9 and MHA3 will likely share the vast majority of 4DX/MX4D screens at the end of August/going into September.

Marvel/DC

The Suicide Squad has been added to the list.

I also forgot to add Birds of Prey in the last update, so it's been added now.

I also went back and estimated what Black Widow roughly earned between the time that tracking ended (¥866.1 million) and when it fell out of the Top 25 at the usual locations. I'm estimating it's around ¥900 million, so I'll leave it there unless a final figure becomes available. But if it failed to reach ¥1 billion, which looks very likely, it probably won't be updated. From what I can tell, besides Toho Cinemas and Movix Cinemas boycotting Disney releases that debut on Disney+ outright, most other chains that have decided to play them are only doing so for 5 weeks because they've been experiencing severe theater count losses in week 5 that's pushing them into limited release. Or maybe it's a deal that Disney and the others theaters worked out. "We'll play your films, but only for 5 weeks" thing. Black Widow is only in 14 theaters right now, for example, and it's only 7 weeks old.

NOTE: This is the post-Obon Festival weekend, so drops are rough as a result.

F9: The Fast Saga achieved a third-consecutive weekend atop the box-office, though it definitely felt the post-Obon Festival drop. It sold 113,200 admissions in its third outing, bringing its 17-day admissions up to 1,817,795. The tenth film in the overall series fell harder this weekend than I would have liked, so it might not surpass Furious 7 to become the second biggest film in the franchise. It's still possible, but it certainly needs to recover this week to do it. Still, it's going to at least become the third biggest film in the franchise, which is probably more than most were expecting.

Kaguya-sama: Love is War Final debuted in second place, selling a respectable 124,500 admissions over the weekend frame on 320 screens (which was enough for a #1 debut in admissions), and 195,181 admissions over its first three-days in release. This was a pretty large 48% decline from the first film, although I'm unsure if it was just a natural result from less interest among the fans, or if the expanding restrictions due to COVID may have limited it a bit (such as limiting/postponing stage greetings). It should still get above ¥1 billion (~$10 million) though, so while down a lot, it won't be at a loss or anything.

Belle held the best in the Top 10 in its post-Obon Festival weekend, which isn't surprising since it's continued to hold well throughout its entire run so far. It sold 110,000 admissions in its sixth weekend, bringing its total admissions up to 3,760,833 admissions after 38 days. It exceeded the blockbuster milestone of ¥5 billion ahead of the weekend (Friday, day 36), becoming the third film of 2021 to achieve this status. It's also director Mamoru Hosoda's second film to reach blockbuster status, after 2015's The Boy and the Beast. It's ¥635 million away from surpassing that film, which should occur in very early September.

Last of the Wolves, either a sequel or follow-up to The Blood of Wolves, debuted in fourth place, selling 90,000 admissions over the weekend frame on 323 screens, and 135,863 admissions after its first three-days in release. Decent enough debut. Probably won't reach the ¥1 billion (~$10 million) milestone, but this opening is high enough to make it a possibility.

My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission exceeded the ¥2 billion milestone, surpassing both of its predecessors after just three weeks in release, and has become the first MHA film to reach this milestone. Not going to predict where it may be heading until next week though since it's receiving a 4DX/MX4D expansion on August 28th which should increase its ceiling.

Tokyo Revengers continues its steady track to the ¥4 billion milestone, and should get there in about two weeks. It'll also exceed 3 million admissions around the same time. I'm sure some of you may correct me, but I can't think of any other film adaptation of a Kodansha property that has earned more than Tokyo Revengers has now. Pretty huge success for them here, as well as for Warner Bros. who continue to have great success this year in Japan with their Japanese productions.

Post Re: Japan Box-Office: WKND Actuals (08/21-22); Charts Update
Thank you corpse for the weekend analysis! always looking forward to your posts.

I'd like to ask about Japan box office in general, it seems it has long legs. but how much is it exactly? do the majority of movies make 90%+ of total box office at the 1st week/month? total run at 2 months? brushing aside things like Spirited away or demon slayer of course.

I've looked at Evangelion but i don't think that's accurate due to it being the finale & fans repeating to send goodbye.but it seemed to have done half of its box office in the first two weeks (5¥ BN. 3 of it on the first week) yet still got 2¥ BN (7¥ BN total first month) more by the next two weeks and finished at 10¥ BN over the next three months. so it was a strong 4-month run.

Detective Conan: The Scarlet Bullet on the other hand opened at ¥2.2 billion on 3 days and 10-day total almost 4¥ BN. 30 day at 6.2¥+ BN. and its final number at 7.52¥. so it did seem it made over 85% of its revenue at the first month. though there have been SOE's and theaters shutdown so i don't know if it has impacted it much. by comparing it with evangelion it seems much more front-loaded to Evangelion which still gained 3¥ BN.


Also will TOHO block the upcoming Spider-man? it is in-part by disney i guess. but its theaters exclusive. the reception has been insane for it and they haven't showed the most fan-requested character yet (rumored to be in the second trailer) and Looking at the dc/marvel list spider-man is the top grossing Superhero movie on Japan. So they'd be losing quite a fair bit of money on both sides if it gets blocked wouldn't it? (Especially taking in mind its releasing around Christmas and the longest new years holiday in japan for a while. but it'll also have competition with multiple films it seems)


Thanks in advance.

It seems Evangelion 3.0+10 has no Home Release scheduled like 3.0(JP). weird since it does around 800K which is pretty great. are the licensing issues still there?

I don't see a release date for it yet in Japan, and the latest JP trailer just says "coming soon" as well. I'm going to assume it'll end up in December though since the Spider-Man films either debut a week before or the week of their U.S. release date. Most of them have opened in Japan before the U.S., so I do find it a bit odd that it doesn't have a release date yet though. Might just be a case of them seeing if it'd actually make December in the U.S. (and elsewhere) first before putting it on the schedule.

And yes, Spider-Man is far and away the biggest western superhero in Japan, and his films take up 5 of the top 10 (including the Top 3) biggest Marvel/DC films, and 7 of the top 13. And there's strong evidence (such as Civil War's massive jump over Winter Soldier) that his inclusion in the Avengers films boosted them as well. Take Spider-Man out of them, and they likely wouldn't have performed as well.

The Spider-Man films are distributed by Sony, so I'm going to presume it's safe from any boycotts since it shouldn't be debuting same-day on Disney+. I don't know what sort of deal Sony/Disney have in regard to streaming (seems something Sony wouldn't have agreed to since Disney would be getting most/all of that share), but as long as it stays off Disney+, it'll be good.

I'll answer your legs in the market question in a separate post since it may be long.
