Jujutsu Kaisen Movie 0 Ratings:

5.0 ⭐ : MovieWalker

4.4 ⭐ : Filmark

N.R. : Yahoo Movie Japan

3.4 ⭐ : Eiga (2)

 

Ratings are above average. WOM should drive it's potential above ¥10B but by how much (multiples) Firstly, will look closely at OD, as DS'OP cannot be defeated, before drawing conclusion. If so, how much will be the difference.....

I don't think theres a chance JJK can beat DS OD or even come close to it box office wise, Demon Slayer is Japans equivalent of Stars/Wars/Spidey/Avengers and JJK is not

[Danhjpn]

From Corpse:

 

I think Friday and Saturday will be reasonably close, but I'm not confident on Sunday. I'm sure it'll benefit from spillover, but some of the spillover could certainly go to the weekdays (and beyond) as we enter the holiday season. On the other hand, some of the spillover could simply be from those wanting to see it specifically over the weekend, and the buzz it's generated could boost it a little with casuals/families. People are saying it's suppose to turn colder into/after Sunday, too, so that could focus some more business to the weekend (and Sunday). I'm going to be a tad liberal with the Sunday estimate and see what happens.

Jujutsu Kaisen 0 - Weekend Prediction:

Friday: ¥1.05 billion ($9.2 million) / 750,000
Saturday: ¥900 million ($7.9 million) / 650,000
Sunday: ¥800 million ($6.8 million) / 575,000

Opening Weekend: ¥1.70 billion ($14.7 million) / 1,225,000
3-Day Opening: ¥2.75 billion ($23.9 million) / 1,975,000

If this Friday happens, it'll only be the second film in history to achieve an OD above ¥1 billion. I'm really hoping the Friday admissions can get to 800,000, as it'd also only be the second film in history to sell 800,000+ admissions in a day, but that's going to be tough and I don't want to over-predict that.

And if this 3-Day Opening happens, it will far and away be the second highest 3-Day Opening in history.

So, let's see what happens! I'll be tracking it over the weekend versus every other big or notable opening since 2015 (if you've been here for at least a year, you'll recognize the charts).

OD is just my expectations because OP is just impossible 🥲

Usual Location Picks

10:00 : 11:00 : 12:00

Demon Slayer : 122,210 < 149,461 <179,702

Jujutsu Kaisen : 101,914 < 142,098 < 166,603 

 

However, midnights shows have added 15,367 (10,562 at usual picks) so, Total is above 181,970 (177,255). Almost running par with Demon Slayer but true numbers can be noted after 14:00 and also at 18:00

[Issac Newton]

12:00 Update on revenue:

¥361,755,890

 

Running ratio to Demon Slayer is improved to 91% (12:00) from 81% (10:00)

 

10:00 : ¥209,156,750 (81% of DS at same time)

JJK MOVIE O (250K+) is on it's way to win the OD from Demon Slayer Mugen Train. However, DS maximum number comes from Evening Shows. So, let's see how evening perform

[KP1025]

I think Corpse also mentioned Demon Slayer played very well in rural areas and that JJK might not be able to perform as well there. So just winning at usual locations might not be enough to win OD.

Problem is not only with Rural Prefectures (15% of JBO) but massive evening shows of DS that exploded from 16:00 after school &office ended.

 

Other things is that JJK has 250K less seats then DS on it's OD. Also, National wide theatre are a lot more than DS but shows/screens are overall a way lesser than DS. If Kingsmen and local release flop then I hope to get those screens and show back to JJK
