"Kaibutsu-kun" / "Kamen Rider x Kamen Rider" / "Real Steel"
The new “Kamen Rider” feature-length movie, “Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Fourze & OOO: Movie War Mega Max” attracted 333,200 people over the weekend and debuted in first place. It grossed 378,422,200 Yen (4.86 million USD), which was a slightly better result than the two most recent movies in the series, “Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider OOO & W Featuring Skull: Movie War Core” and “Kamen Rider OOO Wonderful: The Shogun and the 21 Core Medals“.
“Kaibutsu-kun” was beaten by “Kamen Rider” this weekend, but it’s still doing great at the box office. A total of 1,200,000 saw the movie already, resulting in a cumulative revenue of over 1.6 billion Yen (20.55 million USD). The threshold of 2 billion should get broken by the upcoming weekend.
American movie “Real Steel” opened on 3rd place. As usual for Western movies, it already opened prior to the weekend, but the weekend box office chart only counts the results of Saturday and Sunday. During those two days, 176,254 people went to theaters to see the movie, allowing it to earn a revenue of 225,279,650 Yen (2.89 million USD).
The anime “K-On!” dropped down to 4th place. Its total revenue is currently at 691,086,400 Yen (8.87 million USD).
Menawhile, the much-anticipated new adaption of “Genji Monodatari“, starring Ikuta Toma, Nakatani Miki, and more, only opened on 5th place. Attracting only 128,825 people and creating a revenue of 163,760,300 Yen (2.1 million USD) is a disappointing result reminiscent of last year’s “Norwegian Wood“, which also failed at the box office chart despite the positive comments prior and during its screening in theaters.
Next weekend, the top position will be challenged by “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol“.
