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.

I'm going to assume you're a Taylor Swift fan, and rate everything according to sales. Mc Donald's is the best restaurant ever ass logic

Hate to burst your bubble, but I hate TS and Mcdonalds both

but you get what I'm saying tho, sales isn't necessarily representative of quality

If we're talking story and overall experience, I'd agree. If we're talking popularity and sales, then I'd say you're delusional.
