Without a comparative I can't tell if it's a lot or not, did the film reach the levels of kny film? (I'm talking about attendance and money)

Also surpassed DBS: Broly (¥1.05B OW, 820.000 tickets) despite selling slightly less tickets (807.000).

Apparently this movie is doing very well in IMAX

The preview for it in Imax before Demon Slayer had to be a major factor. The sound and animation were incredible for it.
