I used bits of this for the Box Office Gross (original source was this magazine) ranking updates, but most of what’s on this list doesn’t meet the criteria for getting on that ranking, which is intended for film adaptations of, for the most part, late night anime. Of course the biggest earners come from films that have no connection to late night anime. Madoka is the only one in the top 10 for example. This also shows how many more screens mainstream movies get – well over 300, compared to under 100 (or below 40 even) for most late night anime movies.

Good idea, thanks for the post.
>compared to under 100 for most late night anime movies
I think it would be more accurate to say “around 50” or maybe even “below 50” (for more popular shows it’s ~40, for less popular ~25). A note about late night anime movies being more front-loaded should be there as well. It correlates with how BD sales are but there should still be some notice about it.
Well, to be honest, I’m not sure they are more front-loaded. At least, not in this list. Of the 5 late night franchises at ¥500m or more, they on average did 17.6% of gross in the first report. The 13 mainstream films did 19.2% of gross in the first report. Basically the same, slightly more for mainstream actually even with Kaze Tachinu being very low at 8%.
Films with grosses lower than about ¥500m are more front-loaded than more successful films. Or at least seem to be, because we get less of their total gross reported due to them dropping out of the charts very quickly and thus only being reported for a couple weeks. But this applies roughly similarly to both late night (33.7%) and mainstream (26.2%) films, it appears, allowing for the very small sample size.
Box Office charts seem to have more in common with music or print charts than DVD/BD, with high thresholds and lackluster reporting for anything below moderately large hits.
This certainly makes me feel better about T&B’s opening weekend and potential gross. I mean, it’s not shockingly good like AnoHana, but it’s certainly not bad either. (Why otaku insist upon comparing T&B to Madoka and then sneering when it fails to reach those numbers, I’ll never know, but it always gets me antsy about T&B’s “success level” for some reason.)
Ah did the second movie debut? ::looks:: Thanks for the heads up. And yeah, ¥130m opening weekend is perfectly fine. First movie did ¥520m, and about ¥115m of that opening weekend. No reason why the second movie shouldn’t do as well or better.
Looks like Imas is up to about ¥350m after its third weekend. I’ll have to take a moment to find a non-Mojo Japanese source on both of these tonight and update the rankings.
And people are dumb, they insist on comparing everything to whatever is selling best and completely fail to understand that “success” isn’t narrowly defined as “being the absolute best”. Well that and wanting to be douchey trolls, but y’know.
People are also saying the snowstorm might have had an impact. Either way, the reviews are overwhelmingly positive, and I already have my tickets for when it hits over here, so the only thing I, personally, have to worry about is hoping for some of the movie merchandise to be available at my showing.
Looking back over what I wrote, I also didn’t mean to imply that all otaku are down on the show or rude in general. It’s just something that seems to pop up quite a bit when people talk about T&B. Perhaps because they both came out the same year.
Do you know what other late-night anime are still in theaters or coming out soon? Has Madoka left, or is it still bringing in the money? I don’t really pay attention to anime movie grosses unless it’s something I’m interested in personally, or it feels like a sequel might be riding on it.
Madoka Rebellion had a ton of merch which was nice while AnoHana had none or I didn’t get any which was disappointing as the letters look fun but the movie itself was really good so that’s OK. Gelly 3 was out too, pretty good year for anime so far I must say in theaters over here.
Sadly the theaters haven’t been full though. I hope more people come out though I swear the only marketing they ever do is Facebook, Twitter and ANN.
I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on one of those special Hello Kitty x T&B crossover plushies, but I sort of doubt they’ll be selling those over here. The premiere of the first movie in San Francisco came with a free Kotetsu card and had tables for goods, but who knows if Viz will have another set up like that. They’re sure keeping their cards close to the vest when it comes to screening info.
Pretty sure Madoka must be done by now, but I’m not sure how to check. Other than T&B and Idolmaster, I can’t think of any major late night movies in theaters right now.
What, you mean Wake Up, Girls isn’t still burning up the charts?
Heh. Speaking of that the only data I can find is some 2ch thread saying ¥10m after 4 days, but unsourced. If that’s true it probably never ranked again after…
Madoka has one last hold out in Japan at Yonezawa City that will end on the 21st.
