This post will list the box office revenues for anime movies originating from TV anime, specifically late night (Madoka, Garupan, Monogatari, etc) and some prime time (Evangelion, Nichigo slot, etc) TV anime. I now also cover original movies and more mainstream/family fare such as Ghibli, Doraemon, Meitantei Conan, Pokemon, One Piece, Naruto, etc., though only from 2012 onward, unless they appear in WorldofKJ or Wikipedia’s top grossing films lists in which case it goes back earlier.

Note: # of weekends – box office rankings are measured after the weekends and movies start on weekends – can be misleading. Most movies only appear a few times in the normal rankings, but later reports cover a longer period of time. Sometimes this is to the end of the theatrical run, sometimes it’s just random points throughout.
Sources for older films are a mix of yearly lists on MAL/ANN/Yaraon, while more recent films are tracked while in theaters via BunkaTsuhin, Chinematoday, Mantanweb, and particularly this World of KJ thread, as well as Box Office Mojo as a source of last resort. It won’t be complete for older films because anime movies usually don’t rank highly and it’s hard to find accurate information for anything below about ¥400m from just the Year End lists.
Not all movies on the list have equally good sources; Mojo alone would have Fate UBW at ¥35m (one weekend), but the mid-year list from animeanime.biz has a total (after 5 months) of ¥280m. This is a fairly extreme example, but it means that the above can’t always be compared directly with complete fairness. Use of Mojo is avoided where possible because their strange currency conversions result in incorrect (still close, but incorrect) numbers.

To provide some more context for Kimetsu no Yaiba, I’ve extended the last chart to include anything pre-2012 that appears on the all-time grossing lists at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_anime_films#Highest-grossing_anime_films_in_Japan
and

The additions are all Ghibli and Pokemon, with the exception of a One Piece and a Yamato movie. Doraemon and Meitantei Conan all struck it big at the box office after 2012, so nothing new there. In any event it just felt weird to have Kimetsu here without the previous 19-year record holder Sen to Chihiro for comparison.
To see all the new films just added, sort the Other Anime Movies table by Release Date and look at the ones from before 2012. (I guess I had already added a couple pre-2012 Precure films in the past, so those ones aren’t new.)
Unsurprisingly no late-night anime films from before 2012 made the all-time list, since film wasn’t much of a thing for late night series until around 2010.
