Makoto Shinkai's your name. (Kimi no Na wa.) anime film has, as of Monday, October 3, earned 13,020,003,500 yen (about US$127 million) and sold 10,025,897 tickets in 39 days.
The film sold 650,000 tickets for 790 million yen (about US$7.80 million) over the October 1-2 weekend to maintain its #1 ranking for the sixth weekend.
At the Japanese box office, your name. is now the fifth highest-grossing anime film (after Ponyo's 15.50 billion yen or US$152.9 million), the 6th highest-grossing Japanese film, and 15th highest-grossing Japanese or overseas film overall. The film surpassed the 2013 Japanese box office total of Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli's The Wind Rises (12.02 billion yen or US$118.6 million). In addition, your name. has now earned more in Japan than Jurassic Park and Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. The only anime films to earn more than your name. are Ghibli and Miyazaki's Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, Princess Mononoke, and Ponyo.
The film is obviously doing really well at the moment. I wonder how much it will earn, not only in Japan (once it's finished in Cinemas there), but altogether as a worldwide thing. share
