    This weekend is likely ended up in a crazy three-way-finish outta my expectations. Although Bohemian looked to poise top in yesterday stat but looked might not be the case after the day performance of Ralph and Sunshine. (Edited Jan 7, 19) Many were surprised Sunshine did far less than the predecessor despite most viewers' response were positive (I mean not biased to gift, but a real one) Seemed either Love Live's Staff epic miss to put a sub-group fanmeeting in Chiba, which overlapping day 2/3? Or viewers were just too afraid what happened in original movie will too happen here too? (Big Spoilers of two series and related groups thus not tomention here) (Note: unlike predecessor's fanmeeting on Chiba which on same day of movie, the subgroup fanmeeting is NOT packaged with movie airing)

    Looks more likely , the stat in yesterday is even outperform the original Love Live's Day 1 stat. Ralph also have slight chance also overtake it too. More worrisome stat I gathered, no sold out happened yet in major chain in Tokyo nor Namazu (that the current series taken place in) excluding the live viewings of stage greeting on day 1. (Original series did have multiple sold out in day 1 on pre-sale period). So I suspect if they can hit a 3m mark despite their cd sales looked well (helped by event lottery heavily however).

    From things gathered in twitter, the pre-sale figure of Love Live Sunshine looked far less from its predecessor (though the original one started on Sat so hard to say a medicare debut yet but not looked good either) A slight chance of either Bohemian or Ralph get this weekend's win?

    I would put doubt Ralph would hold the lead in new year week due to the existence of Love Live Sunshine, and more surprisingly no one mentioned up to now. Even essentially not really a sequel of the Original series in 2015 (relationship betwen the two are something like FB and HP, or DBZ and DBP), consider the original series still managed a 400 million-ish in Day 1/2 and current group's Kouhaku performance few days before on screen. Really need some strong finish to beat it and their gift factor too (see page 49x-ish for what really had happened in BO for original series)

    It also unseated Love Live!The School Idol Movie as #2 top gross/attendence "late-night animation"(sort of, ufotable did make "Unlimited Blade Works" Chapter as late-night anime, but fate was originally a game aeries) in process. The gift factor again played very well this time(see back my post in 2015 for what that mean, although item code more in this case like Monster Strike did) Note: Ch.2 lost butterfly will be in 2018.

    Great indeed. Beating both Madoka's WE1 attendance and Love Live's WE1 gross by a considerably large margin. (30000 attn / 23m JPY respectably)

    this is enough to make a questionmark, even I believe the odds of Zootopia crossing the mark is still high, for now.

    I think Zootopia can keep the pace until July. in normal cases. June is not really a strong month for films. last year didn't however, mid-June was dominated by two films that did far beyond their expectations, plus their fan base and chain did not overlap overlap each other much. So you should hope there is nothing like that happen this year.

    Yes. There is still 1 theater showing so still counts as consecutive record. Speaking of that issue mentioned above, probably due to 153 theaters (this is 38 more than their original screen count in Nov 21, 2015) will be (re-)showing it starting from 21st May till 31st May to conclude their long release, as a celebration of Blu-ray release. So even it don't matter in this week's weekdays, but certainly mattered a lot in result in this weekend since unknown number of 4DX joined in it. Should this ended at 31st May the consecutive records it would be 193 days. However, for longest showing in 2015 releases, still 9 days short to Love Live! The School Idol Movie (13th June till 31st December, 202 days) So consider margin of this and Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie: Rebellion (2013) is less than 0.1BJPY. They are determined to overtake the latter to be second-highest gross film based on a late-night animation in their final 10 days sprint. === Edited 10th June: It has officially passed Love Live! The School Idol Movie's 202 day record as longest run in 2015 releases. Particularly, Cinema City (the only theater showing them before expansion) has no plan to end the showing too soon, they even added another format starting from 18th June. I would not be surprised if Cinema City are going to show this for a whole year, as their tickets are still popular among the fans. (The are not 4DX but tailored audio-adjusted version) As expected, it has already become the second-highest gross film based on a late-night animation (currently 2.2B), it is very difficult to climb at top place even they got a 0.1B/wk pace on last two weeks, however, as some of them chosen continue to show them for a forseeable time, the final of this is yet to be determined.

    The main point is that is unusual move for utilizing 4DX for a film having low screen count AND non-3D.

    Frozen hit is special case in Japan particularly on its dubbed songs rather than princess fanbase. But I did agree Zootopia is original animation sleeper hit.

    Just a reminder (did mentioned a few pages ago): Girls and Panzer der Film has a 4DX screen along with two normal screen (a very rare case as a non-3D film and having very low screen count), so don't be surprised if this produced a non usual total Today. (The evening showing of 4DX has been full few weeks ago, the earlier one almost too as of this writing)

    Seeing today's performance, unless a bigger earthquake happened I don't think it will affect too much. However, as released too near with Detective Conan: The Darkest Nightmare (1 week after), and has no special guest dubbing like Frozen did, I think it would called success if they can pass 4B JPY (Inside Out did despite facing heavy competition, particularly The Boy And The Beast)

    A bit early to mention, but quite interesting stuff happened in Girls and Panzer der Film 4DX presale today. (This has only 1 4DX screen plus 1 standard screen only) Although the 4DX version has only one showtime and one screen per day, all 4DX showtime (5/12-5/18) has been sold out within 30 minutes once they are available.

    Since I had not watched the film itself, I have no right to judge whether Ten Years should be awarded or not. But I believe if only political reason affect this result, that looked more like controversy between Zero Dark Thirty and Argo in Academy Awards. Or better saying, rigging controversy or are not limited to Hong Kong (or certain extent, China) but all over the World. I did agree the nomination should be revised, but not necessary to alter the result unless there are more politically controversal film flooding the scene.
