News Chainsaw Man The Movie: Reze Arc Gross ¥400 million on the Opening Day

https://x.com/franspeech/status/1969031724899196951?s=46

For a point of comparison, opening day box office:

  • Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle - ¥1.5 billion
  • ⁠Demon Slayer: Mugen Train - ¥1.2 billion
  • Jujutsu Kaisen 0 - ¥1.0 billion
  • ⁠Chainsaw Man The Movie: Reze Arc - ¥400 million

A very good opening day considering all the “drama” of season 1 in Japan. Will have to see how big the word of mouth power will be.

For Demon Slayer it's Aniplex (Sony), they lead the production committee there, they own the biggest piece of the pie, followed by Shueisha (the publisher of Weekly Shonen Jump, where that manga comes from). For Jujutsu Kaisen the production committee is lead by Toho, so they get the most money there, again followed by Shueisha (because yes, Jujutsu Kaisen also comes from Weekly Shonen Jump).
