Another Doraemon movie!?

[Sophia Jane]

Finally watched all Demon Slayer whole series,really different from Naruto&OP&Dragon Ball,those 3 animes more emphasis on Fighting scene but Demon Slayer more emphasis on Emotional scene and Character's background story,some part even make me cry ,really good anime.No wonder It's super popular.

likely to bomb...It's the remake of 1985 film Doraemon: Nobita's Little Star Wars.

[BruiseCruise]

Is 25m likely for The Batman?

No. Crossing ¥1.0B /$8.66M is biggest target here. Do not think about Joker legs here

That's Impossible,even NWH Performance is not good in Japan,Superhero have really limited audience in Japan,More like ＄8－10m

I've seen that many people who liked Demon Slayer then also appreciated Jujutsu Kaisen which for example is quite similar to Naruto and Bleach, so I would recommend it to you too

 

(then neither of them are among my favourites but that's another story...)
