Around 57 mln RUB or $770k opening weekend in Russia. 2nd place behind only F9. Opening is three times better than any other anime inckuding Weathering with You.

Scoring the top anime 5th weekend this weekend in the states. Presumably going to set anime record for 6th, 7th, etc as well. Had been 2nd place behind Pokémon for 1-4 afaik.

Only #2 in Russia and it took 5 weeks to top Pokemon in states. Such floppage! Heads should roll at Sony for those video leaks. Why is no one doing anything about that?

DS took first place yesterday in France so it can still be at the top for its first week. Manga/anime community is strong here and it can be possible after all !

On May 20, 2021, the PV of the film was played by Sony Pictures in Shanghai on Sony Expo 2021. Does that mean that China might be getting some sort of release of Demon Slayer after all?

Demon Slayer officially second highest grossing anime film in Russia, and could soon if not already pass Weathering With You.

$770,000 opening weekend in Russia was enough to make it the second highest grossing anime film ever in the market, not just opening weekend? And it'll be number one a day later? Crazy stats.

it seems china release is still on the table




although i wonder how much the piracy have harmed it on china,since piracy on china is pretty common for anime (due to bans). since the BD's would have released by then as well.

Yeah, the release date is still uncertain. Back in November 2020, the first leak of full movie had Chinese subtitle, so it was possibly recorded in a theater from Taiwan, Hong Kong, or Macau. Hence, I highly doubt the movie can perform well in China theaters even it passes the censorship.

Actually the highest grossing anime is Mary and The Witch's Flower. 84 mln RUB or $1.49 mln in Russia. Had very good legs and not so easy to beat. Weathering with You grossed 40.5 mln RUB or $633k and Your Name 37 mln RUB or $635k.

With that opening $1.49m in Russia should be achievable in a week or two. Needs a multiplier of 2 and I don't think it will crash and burn after opening weekend.

Is there any news related to the release in mainland China yet? I hope the changing of the distributor from Bilibili to Sony Pictures will put more weight on the release. $600 million globally may be possible if China green lights. However, in order to speed up the process, Sony Pictures may need to "yield" or offer money under the table to make the movie pass censorship :funny: .

Today, the Mugen Train official surpassed the milestone of $45 million in the U.S.

Will the movie advance further or this is its limit?

350k entries for Demon Slayer for its first week. Only "Adieux les cons" did better with 513k, and DS was back to 1st yesterday so still strong even there's new releases usually coming at wednesday in France.

The first post hasn't been updated in a few weeks now, so if someone could share the updated numbers, especially now it's almost at $500 million, I'll update the post. Thanks.

Usually how long does an anime film gets shown in Russia before it gets pulled out?

Thank you for sharing with us.
"The film was the highest-earning film worldwide from 2020. It is the first non-Hollywood or non-American film to top the yearly box office worldwide since the beginning of cinema over a century ago."
"The first victory after a hundred year" reminds me about the same situation in the manga we will witness at the end of Season 2. Is it fate? :shades:
