>>281851894If sakamoto and SU are people fight then is JJK also a people fight too?
>>281851962faito.....
>>281851962VILLAINS
>>281852186its literally titled sorcery fight
L-L-LIVEEEEEE!!!!!!!
>>281852375Cool volume actually. It gives me Ousama Ranking vibe.
>>281852311Where is Hokuto?
>>281852468That was made before we saw his face so the armor puppet was added instead of him.
>>281852375Next series to get to 100 million copies in circulation
>>281851962SHIT TASTERS... SEETHING
I know a bunch of people are complaining about Ichi staying in first and getting a bunch of CPs and LCPs, but I think it's really explainable.Usazaki has a bunch of free time due to Nishi handling the names as an artist so that explains the normal CPsNishi has a cult following from Iruma, not just vet hype.People take one piece for granted. They know that it's never going to die until Oda chooses.Ichi is consistently decent and sometimes great. At worst it drags on chapters, but all the manga do that. That said, I understand why KGB is stingy with CPs, but it should sometimes take top spot.
the bakugami arc dragged on a bit but it was still quite enjoyableplus ichi has big brown boobies, kagurabachi doesn't
>>281852692It's a shit explanation. Ichi's level of sales does not line up with its constant covers and top 1 ranks.
>>281852731>ichi has big brown boobiesI don't care about Ichi, but I hope it garners enough popularity for Desscaras to get a bunch of porn.
>>281852783Sales and Magazine ranks are implicitly separate thingsMagazine ranks are what they want to advertise / pushIchi doesn't have the sales they'd want, so they are pushing it hard in hopes of it getting theret. KGBgawd
>>281852800>Doujin event coming up>Not a single entry for Ichi the Witch I've seenDon't get your hopes up
otr is at the back of the magazine because it's doing incredibly well. so well that they know everyone who buys jump desperately wants to read it. putting it at the back means they need to thumb through all the other series and hopefully give them a read before they get to the dessert
>>281851894Honestly the creativity and action in this manga have ruined a lot of other people fight manga for me.
>>281852815>Ichi doesn't have the sales they'd want, so they are pushing it hard in hopes of it getting thereAnd it's not working, literally achieving the exact opposite with Ichi losing readers.
>>281852839>what they want to advertise / pushThey aren't gonna try with a DoA series
WIN on Arrival
>>281852832Takeru-sama, you're my only hope, plz put a cute brown flattie in KGB.
ive never seen hokazono draw him so smug before
>>281852961Get ready for 50 pieces of Natsuki getting creamed by Uruha and Hokuto
>>281852970Now this is the face of a WINNER
>>281852970>Signature look of superiority
>>281852970He looks so chilled.
>>281852375man, if only the series is a clean as this cover and whatever schizoid mess it currently is
>>281852311How is Takeru planning to kill all of them? We're 100 chapters and 0 death so far. I could only hope that it won't be as bad as konoha teams hunting down all of akatsuki in short-span of chapters.
N-N-N-NEDICBAS!!!!
>>281853537what?
I won't let /wsj/ memoryholed that nedicbas is bachicordie who is WINNER ritualposter and commission BLACKED edits of every anime girl.
>>281853580*Salto
How come there's no art of Tafuku in a Mawashi?
>>281853662Because he's always erect
beef or chicken?
>>281853736pork
>>281853468I like most of them enough that I hope Takeru takes his time before he starts killing them off. I imagine the less important ones will be killed by characters who aren't Chihiro and the ones with a more direct connection to Kunishige's death will be saved for Chihiro himself.
>>281853468Baldie has the most drathflag all over him and he's the least popular hishaku so he can die first, follow by Toto and healer just give Kuguri and Otokonohiko character developments.
>>281853851>BaldieHim and Worst Jeanist will definitely be the first two to die, which is a bit of a shame because I do actually like them.
>>281853851>Otokonohiko
>>281853996If any of the Hishaku get redeemed, it better not be this crazy faggot.

>>281853851>>281853936He's gonna be the distraction
>>281854042Given his backstory and how autistic he is, I would not be surprised if Hiruhiko did get redeemed. At the same time I wouldn't be surprised if his redemption is death.
>>281844683>shitnatsu is getting written out of the storyBased.
>>281854057>Lol, lmafo even.Takeru did play with the idea of villains being redeemed a bit with Daruma. All though Sojo did kill him and shit on him for flip flopping, which could have been Takeru telling the reader to not expect any villains to be redeemed. >At the same time I wouldn't be surprised if his redemption is death.Eh, I guess I could live with it.
Eat up.
>>281854208Chihiro is for sure not forgiving any Hishaku. He could forgive some random Yakuza, but the ones actually responsible WILL pay.
>>281854208Yura, Matsu, Hokuto, Lady and Kuguri are the only ones I'm pretty convinced have 0 chance of ever being redeemedBaldie and Jeanist will probably die regardlessWe haven't seen much of Super Shota and Hiruhiko really feels like the culmination of his story will be Chihiro killing him, regardless of RedemptionSo I think it'll probably be Toto, if any
>>281854268>Kuguri That teacher was a child molester so he can still be redeemed by using his sword autism for good.
>>281854317He's a believer in Sojo's ideals and he's the only Hishaku member we've seen kill a 100% inarguably innocent person
I would like to thank Ichi the FLOP for letting KINOshi live another round.
>>281854268>Hiruhiko really feels like the culmination of his story will be Chihiro killing him, regardless of RedemptionI just know that Hirhiko's death will be extremely pathetic. He's going to be EXECUTED
>>281854372>I just know that Hirhiko's death will be extremely pathetic. He's going to be EXECUTED>Chihiro unceremoniously kills him without any emotion/regard considering him nothing special and no different from a random mookWould be kino.
>>281854367if ichi is a flop then kiyoshi is a disaster thougheverbeit
>>281854415Kiyoshi went up. Ichi went down.
>>281854372>Hiruhiko's face when Chihiro just leaves him bleeding out on the ground without a single regard (he isn't even worthy enough for Chihiro to feel the need to deal a coup de grâce) since he's no longer a threat
>>281854513I like this pairing
>>281854583No, that already happened, actually, I think the ultimate way to cuck Hiruhiko would be to have him die to someone other than Chihiro.

ROLL THE WINDOWS UP
Will he unleash a full Malediction on Japan when he escapes containment and reunites with Magatsumi or will Takeru save that for later in the story? Personally I think he's just gonna do a mini Malediction when he makes his escape and save the big one for later.
>>281854838I wish for a bunch of important characters to DIE.
>>281854855You're getting Samura and some Kamunabi fodder when Sword Saint makes his escape, take it or leave it.
>>281852783>>281842650>Had a discussion with my sister, a 30 y.o fujo(who reads Jump weekly like me and maybe our parents should ask what went wrong) to understand why Ichi, even with fujopandering isn't working.>1. She finds the male designs ugly, she only likes WH's one. She says that even if the art is good(she finds the girl character designs really cute) Ichi hairstyle is ugly, and Gokuraku's is simply weird and has too much going on.>2. Continuing from the last point, she said that if you think about WSJ series popular with fujos(Jujutsu, MHA, Haikyuu, Kuroko or Gintama) the designs are all pretty simple, so it's easier for fanartists to draw them all screwing each other. Often it's something like a uniform, a particular piece of cloth that makes the character distinct(that's why, she said, sometimes you can confuse some characters with others in djs). Also she said that other fujos find military like uniforms really hot(that's why for her KGB guys>>>Ichi guys).>3. The premise is really hard to work with if you want to attract fujos. She said that, while fujos hate for female characters, is overrated, the main problem is having few boys, and basically only two of them human. Because if even one of the characters isn't liked, there's no more pairings to ship.>4. Also, not related to fujos, she said that it's harder for a series to catch the normalfags when the characters in battle are girls especially, because they aren't taken seriously for powerlevel discussions. And if you add the fanservice many normalfags may dislike it and you alienate the women.>5. A series must also be not too gay, series that have an 80% female audience, like Haikyuu and Gintama can easily be watched/followed by men. There must be a core male fanbase.>6. Contrary to what many says, Ichi's low stakes aren't a big problem, but the serious/humourous/SOL balance is all over the place.
>>281854838Who should die to malediction for hatredmaxxing?>ShibaHatred for Chihiro and Azami>HiyukiTafuku needs hatred >All the Masumi (not at the same time)Extra hatred for a lot of characters>IoriSamura's vision will happen, she should die before the Masumi just so they can suffer a little before dying.A Hishaku member needs to die too so they suffer, we don't really know the dynamic, but I'd say Worst Jeanist because he's apparently liked by the rest.
>>281854638Or a magnum dildo. But you already knew.

>>281855022Good thing they secured TRIGGER for you know who...
>>281855052Yep, KINO Prison chads cannot stop winning.
>>281855015the fuck is pretentious about ichi, it's a comedy manga
>>281855040I don't think they're gonna pick two shonen. That's not counting CinGrey.Hikaru, CinGrey, KGB, Uma Musume. If they're picking another one it might be another IM@S imo. They have stocks in Gakumas probably that.
>>281855067Actually, it's an action fantasy, but Viz forgot to add another tag.

>>281856510Get a grip, schizo.
>>281856476It never had any fujos in the first place
>241Kill yourself, nobody likes you.
>>281856463Introduce new character potentially another girl (shenguai hunter) to spice things up
>>281856510And right after finishing his PPP falseflag he will return to his previous Ichi vs KGB spam with a side of unrelated twitter drama.
>>281856563Hunter is the bro. Goddess is the 2nd love interest.KDG is yandere central.
>>281856580>Ichi vs KGBHow is that gonna even be a thing when KGB beats it at basically everything
>>281856593Well there no way he the only hunter right? Make her hunt (because of revenge or something) them both and become recurring character
>>281856593>Goddess is the 2nd love interestI don't think Kou will ever interest in any other females other than his motherwife
>>281856617>hunt: conflicts with the hunter bro>revenge: conflicts with the goddessbro?
>>281856642It's clear the goddess is the 2nd love interest and she's gonna take him away from Chiyou because he was the only one who's touched her in 5000 yearsThis is a clear harem plotline but everyone is trying to NTR each other for the guy
>>281856679>the only one who's touched her in 5000 years>get wet for the first time in 5000 yearsI want to see more of her interaction with Kou already
Roboco can never do a kagurabachi parody cover now, imagine being beaten to it by fucking batman
>>281856817>goddess of drought gets wet because it's the first time a man touched her in 5000 yearsJun is definitely a woman
I only wish for festa secret stage this year to be something good.
>>281856863Fuck kagurabachi, we need a berserk cover
>>281856948What other series could it be
>>281856957neo-japanese
>>281856948There's like 3 options>PSYREN>Kagurabachi >Nue
Ichi needs an actual rival but the setting makes that unlikely
>secret stage>abema anime festit's too obvious
>>281856999>abema anime festI dont actually think itll happen there, its just so weird thats the only other thing to call itself "neo-japanese" like that in japan
>>281856864Kek
>>281856661What i mean is make the new girl (not the goddess but new character) hunt chiyou and by extend kou because of revenge
>>281856972>an attempt to connect with the international audience>ended 16 years agoThat one tease wasn't Psyren. It was clearly Eyeshield.
>>281857166yes, and I'm saying that'd just intersect with what Nuba is doingwhy would a nigga vow revenge to Chiyou in the first place when the war happened 5000 yeras agoif anything the hunter should vow revenge to Nuba for fucking shit up in recent timeshence, the hunter bro is there
>>281856413>character cover>character cover>character cover>character cover>character cover>And another character coverJesus, christ. Atleast kiyoshi stopped it by vol 4.

>>281857275The KGB anime won't be announced anytime soon, it's too early. The leaked news of the anime adaptation being secured by Cygames leaked just a year ago so animation production might not even have started yet since pre-production won't be done so quickly. Also, if Cygames wants good animation quality, they'll have to wait as it's likely many of the good TV animators are booked for JJK S3.

>>281854643>>281854695I don't like Natsuki getting Kuregumo because he's too old, already has lightning abilities (so it would feel redundant) and he already has a cool dual wielding sword style that we would no longer see if he got Kuregumo.>>281854737>>281854740>>281854699The Masumi's death chances go Moku > Sumi > RoMoku is a nothingburger, good killfodder. Ro looks like a kid so he won't die, also has had the most characterization. Sumi is kind of in between. She has useful support abilities that aren't overpowered so easier to keep in the story, she's also the one that performed the memory seal ritual and I could see that coming back.

>>281863316No? They look nice, because the art is nice, but the labelling and choreography are crap.
>>281862703Weird how schizo they are, Narutofags bickeres among themselves
>>281863327She has a good sense of flow and the speedlines are fine enough, if we compare to what we have currently in jump (kaede lmao)
>>281863198The action is mediocre

>>281863716In like 4 years
>>281863902damn...
>>281863890Yeah, this seems like a fairly accurate description of the rivalry. I also remember some Nue fans back in the day writing off KGB as a cushion for Nue. They should add a line at the end of the description saying the rivalry is pretty dead now, even if that is covered a bit with 'The rivalry was particularly bad early into Kagurabachi's lifespan'.
>>281863845I think it depends. Ekiden and Harukaze are fucking dead in discussions but PPP and KDG are alive. No one talks about Nice Prison while Otr does (for all the wrong reasons)
>>281863845>>281863973Harukaze just isn't for us even it does have a potential audience.
>>281863993Let's see the salesI bet even Kdg will sell more

Otr leaks Chapter 16: "Khuteinn Njordr"In a cave-like place, Cholerio says:“Our next target is the Wind Spirit. Don’t screw this up, Jyokaku-dono.”The one called Jyokaku Doa-Doa (邪角ドアドア) clings to him, whining:“I’ve told you a hundred times—I’m anxious, I’m worried… Don’t expect anything from me!”After consoling him for a bit, Cholerio kicks him forward, saying:“But the Flame Warrior is mine, so don’t kill him.”---Scene shifts.Otr is flustered as Etupirko clings to his arm, trying to make conversation.But her lies are way too obvious, and Khuteinn easily sees through them.In fact, Khuteinn himself is a shameless flirt, already hitting on other women while they talk. Etupirko, unimpressed, says with a cold look:“That’s just the kind of man he is. Don’t take him seriously.”Fylgja mutters:“Is that guy really a descendant of the Five Heroes…?”---According to Huginn’s earlier explanation, what Otr and the others are after this time is a spirit’s grave.And the key to finding it lies with Khuteinn, the descendant of the Wind Warrior.In the “Tales of Ornland,” it is said that unlike the other spirits, the Wind Spirit stayed by its warrior’s side even after defeating the evil king, remaining with him until the day he died.If they meet that spirit who once fought alongside the heroes, perhaps Fylgja’s memories will return.---
>>281864685Negotiations with Khuteinn—a born merchant—seem like they’ll be difficult…But to their surprise, he answers cheerfully:“Sure, I’ll take you there. To my family’s grave!”The group wastes no time and sets sail.---On the ship, Khuteinn tells Huginn:“You owe me one for this. Remember my petition about harbor support? It’s been half a year already.I’d rather protect the living than some maybe-real, maybe-not spirit. Consider this a loan—you’re my witness, Etupirko. Don’t forget it.”Otr comments that Khuteinn is actually kind, saying:“He looks like a cold merchant making hard deals, but deep down he puts people first. He’s like a hero from the old Night-King tales.”Etupirko has no idea what that story is, but Khuteinn does, and he and Otr start getting excited talking about it.---Just then, a massive tentacled monster rises from the sea.Huginn casts barrier spells, “刻意 (Koku-i / Engraving of Will)” and “隠者の隠れ家 (The Hermit’s Hideaway),” surrounding the ship to keep intruders out.But Doa-Doa is already aboard, unnoticed thanks to his invisibility. He creeps up behind Otr, whispering:“I wonder what face Soul-Horn will make when I kill this one…”He presses a sharp ice shard close to Otr’s neck.But suddenly, both Otr and Khuteinn throw punches exactly where Doa-Doa is standing.“Impossible! How did they see me?!” Doa-Doa retreats in shock.Otr and Khuteinn say they sensed a strange wind and the presence of the Winter Spirit. Still, the enemy remains invisible.“Tch… I slipped up. But I’ve achieved my true goal already. Time to show them… the might of Jyokaku Doa-Doa!”An unseen enemy lurks aboard this ship— Battle vs. ‘Jyokaku Doa-Doa’ begins!!

>>281864932>and armchair box office analystsWell, you don't even qualify as one considering how shit you are at it.As of today, it has crossed the 200 million USD line, in japan alone.But it's nice you are admitting it can go up to 35 billion (considering you thought it'd do 20 billion tops and said so several times).So... from 40 billion to 35 billion in what is according to you a far more competitive release date, where's that awful kimetsu fatigue now?By the way, it's still on track to doing 300 million USD before it even hits USA, europe and latam, so... in range for 400 million USD.

>>281865731Stagnated at 3.Declined at 4.If it doesn't win tsugi it's fucking over.
>>281865332Wrong. It's at $198.7M right now from the same guy you like to source. So already you're rounding up like a desperate salesman trying to hit quota. That $1.3M gap matters because yen conversion isn't static. You don't get to say "It’s over $200M!" when it hasn't hit it in USD terms at all.>it's still on track to doing 300 million USD before it even hits USA, europe and latam, so... in range for 400 million USD.Nope. But I'd humor your shitpost, so let's assume it hits ¥35B in Japan. Now apply realistic exchange rates for Q4 2025 (which are already weakening again).>¥147 = $238M>¥155 = $225.8M>¥160 = $218.8M>¥170 = $205.8M>¥190 = $184.2M>¥200 = $175MNow add in the current international total outside Japan:$269.9M - $198.7M = $71.2M. Assuming that number doesn't drastically increase (because SEA + Korea + Taiwan are tapped out), and the US/EU/LATAM don't do crazy numbers which is likely, considering the runtime, niche appeal, and release timing then>¥147 = $238M (Japan) + $71M (intl) = $309M (global)>¥155 = $225M + $71M = $296M>¥160 = $218M + $71M = $289M>¥170 = $205M + $71M = $276M>¥190 = $184M + $71M = $255M>¥200 = $175M + $71M = $246MSo that "$400M!!" dream is nothing more but a pipe dream.

>>281865769The fact that you have to cope with the yen getting weaker and weaker in your schizo headcanon shows you lost jeremy.Hell, for the last month (your article was at the beginning of august) it hasn't really changed much.> That $1.3M gap matters because yen conversion isn't static. Hitting it tomorrow by the way.>$269.9M - $198.7M = $71.2M. Those numbers don't have the updated international numbers for most countries btw, it hit 70 million overseas days ago (which you were really in denial about).So yeah, 300 million USD before it even hits USA, Europe and latam, 400 million are perfectly doable.By the way, it hit 200 million at the current exchange rate, you can't magically cope about it being worth less in six months when it's already made that money.
>>281866047
>>281866061Its so funny he tried to find ways to magically copeI guess mugen train did less than 450 million since if we count it by current exchange rates its not at 500m either kek but wait, if the yen improves this doesn't countAnyway IC is locked to surpass mugen train, and all he can do is cope about it
>>281865769I'd also add in and fill you in on something since weebs are clueless retards: anime movies are NOTORIOUSLY frontloaded in the US. They make all in the OW followed by a huge decline. Anime movies are notoriously frontloaded.Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero had one of the biggest OWs, but it shows that while we've come a long way for anime in theaters, they still remain very frontloaded and fan-driven. Nearly everyone interested goes OW and after that it's dead. Most movies have 30-40% of the gross come from the OW, not almost 50% like anime does. Big movies usually have second weekend drops of nearly 70%, but nearly 80% is uncommon. That's Fifty Shades of Grey territory. Mugen Train opened similarly and it had a huge drop off after the OW.It also opens during football season, Sunday is Sunday Night Football which is a dead zone for casual moviegoers. SNF dominates screens and normalfags would rather die than pick Tanjiro crying over his underdeveloped nakama over the Chiefs.That means by Monday, it probably only has 4 days to make its money before Him drops. But it also depends on WOM from The Conjuring that drops a week before it. If WOM are positive, it'll draw more casual audiences in, especially since it's the finale so it gets a finale boost.>>281865898No.>Japan: $198.7M>Taiwan: $18.7M>South Korea: $13M>Thailand: $9.2M>Hong Kong: $7.1M>Indonesia: $6.3M>Malaysia: $4.9M>Vietnam: $4.6M>Philippines: $4.2M>Singapore: $2M>Macau: $678K>Pakistan: $286K>Cambodia: $235KThese are the data we have so far. Shut up and wait for more data to roll in.
It just keeps going up...
>>281865769>and the US/EU/LATAM don't do crazy numbers which is likely, considering the runtime, niche appeal, and release timingRemember when you said this for japan, then it's already done like x1.5 higher than your highest numbers in a MONTH AND A HALF? I remember.Meanwhile, previews are getting sold out all over the place and everything points out to it having a fantastic performance everywhere, but that would require you being objective.Just like it's already surpassed your 200 million tops, your 250 million tops and your>it needs china to do 300 millionstatement.
>Many Resetera users recommend Ichi as the next Jump manga to readholy mother fucking shiet...
>>281866130IC presales already point to 50M by reputable box office trackers in the US. even if its frontloaded, it'll be 70-80M.>No.It's going to you retard. All you can do is cope about it.Infinity castle is going to mog all super hero movies from hollywood and be one of the top 10 by end of the year. Cope kek
>>281864544>huge boostAre people aware how Amazon rankings work? A book can go from 2k to 1k when like 6 people buy a copy. That's why it only matters when something stays in top 500 for a long time.
>>281854797He just knows how to draw fat chests, Hori’s architecture is still beyond his skill
>>281866130Jeremy, want some more updated data for you?>In South Korea, the film recently added 164,000 admissions on a single day, bringing its total to 2.5 million admissions and a gross of $19.5 million.It's also well above 10 million in thailand since it's overtaken frozen 2 for almost a week.And similar stuff for them all.Its actual numbers are close to 280-290 million already after the weekend.
>another J prediction flops flat on its face, the 200-240 million max for DSkekaro
>>281866047I still want to know what's your pic for real doubles.
>>281866142>Remember when you said this for japan,Correct. Yup, and I've literally already acknowledged that my earlier assumptions about Japan were incorrect because I expected them to follow US market logic. They don't. Japan has 3,000+ screens, slower turnover, and gives films longer legs, especially anime. That's a market with breathing room.The US, by contrast, has 40,000+ screens, a brutal weekly cycle, and zero patience for slow-burners unless you’re Christopher Nolan or James Cameron. Anime movies in America are not leggy, they are ENTIRELY fan-driven, frontloaded, and weekend-heavy. That's not even an insult, that's a well-documented pattern.>>281866207Wrong again, nigger. Deadline projects Infinity Castle will make $20M-$29M. This is conservative, and their numbers actually reflect actual studio expectations and not what some armchair box office analysts say on Reddit. So this is Sony-Crunchyroll tempering expectations behind the scenes.BoxOfficePro projects it'll make $12M-$20M on OW and even says, "Anime titles are not known for their staying power after opening weekend." And guess what, faggot? This is backed up by how Mugen Train performed. Had a big OW followed by a huge drop of 69.5%. BoxOfficePro is the most data-driven forecast site in the game right now. They run a forecasting panel, adjust their models weekly, and actively consider things like runtime, competition, genre, and time of year.Their $12M-$20M projection reflects: anime's massive frontloading Jordan Peele vs Infinity Castle cannibalization and the NFL's death grip on Sundays.This is not Mugen Train 2.0.
Black clover lost?
>>281854838Would anyone even be surprised if Edgemaster gets killed this arc to set up Shura as final boss
>>281866307All his predictions fall flat because he doesn't understand how you make box office predictions>shit I forgot to take into account a fucking national holiday!>also I thought japan would rather watch superflop and floptastic 4 than a movie made in their own country!
>>281866329Tempering expectation to gape your ass is expected. Presales data show otherwise.IF is already projected to be the biggest anime OW of all time in the US AND be the record breaker since pokemon in total.https://boxofficetheory.substack.com/p/5-week-box-office-tracking-and-forecasts-conjuring-last-rites-demon-slayer-infinity-castle-downton-abbey-finale-trifecta-septemberIm letting you know before you get a meltdown and die from brain aneurysm lil bro

>>281866329>This is not Mugen Train 2.0.Yet it's mugen train 2.0 in every country it's releasing in. CURIOUS.Even in japan it's still outpacing MT and it's beating spirited away in like a week and a half tops (would mean it's outpacing it by like fucking twenty days since it needed fucking christmas)
We need to talk about Otr

>BoxOfficeTheory>Sony Crunchyroll‘s anime title Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Infinity Castle hit three week tracking yesterday and the outlook for the Sept. 12 theatrical release stands between a solid $20M-$29M.>BoxOfficePro >Long Range Forecast — September 12, 2025 Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Movie: Infinity Castle | Sony Domestic Opening Weekend Range: $12M – $20M Sony subsidiary Crunchyroll has had great success with the Demon Slayer franchise, which first made its way to domestic theaters in the middle of a dismal 2020; Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: Mugen Train ($21.2M domestic opening) became the highest global grosser of that year and the highest-grossing Japanese title of all time. >Further franchise entries Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – To the Swordsmith Village and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – To the Hashira Training opened to $10.1M and $11.5M, respectively, in Q1 2023 and Q1 2024. >Infinity Castle, moving to Q3, is expected to open in the same range or a bit higher, though our forecasting panel cautions that anime titles are not known for their staying power after opening weekend: second weekend drops for Mugen Train and To the Hashira Training were -69.5% and -82%, respectively.

>>281866345>Edgemaster gets killed this arcSword Saint dying this early on would suck, I don't think he's going to be the final boss of the series, but i do believe he's going to die pretty late into the manga.
>>281866419There’s nothing about Otr to talk about
>>281866373Something something frontloaded something something doesn't count if it beats pokemon in USA I hope he kills himself.>it will do the same as the fucking filler movies I swear to god!
>>281866431And it got a massive update here >>281866373
>>281866459I just don’t see it. What, if the Hishaku get away with it, they’re gonna keep him in a fish tank like the glowies? Shura wants the bug blade
>>281866373You fucking retard. BoxOfficeTheory forums, especially that "Long Range Forecasts" section are filled with:>People who don’t understand market behavior>People who see anime Twitter hype and think it = mainstream appeal>People who ignore second-weekend trends>People who have no grasp of competition, runtime effects, or release patternsThis is what I mean when I say weeb are utter complete retards outside of their turf. They look at pre-sales from Crunchyroll fanbases and go:>"Yup, $56M OW, $90M total, easy!"But ignore:>Jordan Peele dropping a football-themed horror movie the next weekend>Football Season crushing Sunday earnings>Anime always collapsing in Week 2>2h35m runtime killing showtimes>No casual audience engagementIt's a fan forum forecasting with some polish on top. It has some smart users, but the community worships momentum, not logic. And retarded weebs eat it up because it validates hype, even when it's economically idiotic.Deadline is actually one of the FEW Hollywood trades that STILL talks to real studio insiders unlike the armchair box office analysts on BoxOfficeTheory. Their $20M-$29M forecast is grounded in actual pre-sale data, based on historical comps and reflects studio-side cautionThey know Infinity Castle is niche, and they don’t pretend otherwise unlike you dipshits. No fantasy. No hype. Just, "Here's what the data shows."
Would the Kill Blue manga still be going if the Sakamoto anime wasn't a dud?
>>281866522>>People who don’t understand market behaviorI mean, you don't either, asking chat to write stuff for you isn't understanding BO behavior (just like your amazing flop in japan)
>>281863198Uninterested and boredom.
>>281866509>they’re gonna keep him in a fish tank like the glowies?If he successfully reunites with Magatsumi they wouldn't be able to even if they wanted to. I imagine he's gonna go his own way after escaping.
>>281866522>Bot doesn't understand box office>one of the oldest forum to track BO and one of the most accurate ones>But the retard who cannot read a simple chart, or project ANYTHING into kimetsu whether its manga sales or box office. thinks he can predict anythingDeadline is a studio projector. It also basically doesn't understand anime. Sony tells them lower because it looks better to open higher and they can gloat. Same tactic as disneyyou're retarded as fuck. and your ass will get gaped come sept 14th kek
Nue Nue Nue Nue!>>281866531It's so dumb to see a Kill Blue anime still being produced. They better be making it cheaply. For once I can't blame Saito because it was his predecessor that thought it would be good.
>>281864685>>281864713Oh wow, an actual text leak. Maybe a picture leak would be nice.
>>281866285Korea is actually at like 22 million right now and taiwan close to 20as of today so... 82 million without any new weekly updates, 280+ million ww.
>>281866061I don't have to cope with it, the movie does. I'm not FX-trading the yen. I'm explaining how box office is measured and reported in USD, and that FX conversion matters, especially when Japan is carrying 70%+ of the gross. You're acting like USD totals are just symbolic which is dumb. They're the standard for comparing global grosses across the board. It's literally how international film revenue works.>By the way, it hit 200 million at the current exchange rateCool. Wanna guess what happens if the current exchange rate doesn't hold, nigger?Studios and trade outlets don't lock in one FX rate and stick with it forever. They use updated FX rates once the theatrical run ends, and if the yen weakens over the next 3-6 months, then even if the ticket count in Japan stays the same, then the reported USD total will go down. And that matters because that's how Mugen Train got to $507M. Your logic is basically:>"Y-You're not allowed to use FX math unless it makes my movie look good!!"Which is the biggest cope of all.>>281866102>I guess mugen train did less than 450 million since if we count it by current exchange rates its not at 500m either kekExactly. That's the point, lol. I'm acknowledging FX volatility affects reported totals. You're just too retarded to realize you're actually proving my argument for me. Also, Mugen Train benefited from a stronger yen in 2020-2021. Infinity Castle is suffering from a weaker yen in 2025. Same metric. Different result. That's not a contradiction, that’s consistency.
>>281866718>Exactly. That's the point, lol. I'm acknowledging FX volatility affects reported totals. You're just too retarded to realize you're actually proving my argument for me. Also, Mugen Train benefited from a stronger yen in 2020-2021. Infinity Castle is suffering from a weaker yen in 2025.You're retarded as fuck. This isn't how it works. box office is calculated day by day, you cannot take an older movies gross and adjust it to current rates. Literally nobody ever does this. You can cope with it I guess if it makes u feel better
>>281866718>Wanna guess what happens if the current exchange rate doesn't hold, nigger?That the yen immediately gets converted to dollar by this particular international company so your retardation doesn't hold?>then the reported USD total will go downYeah, good luck with a studio actually reporting a movie made LESS than they already reported in the past.Are you genuinely retarded? Don't answer, everyone knows you are.
And this retard said it'd barely do better than fucking film red.Zero foresight, just a hate boner.
how long will this faggot argue with himself?
>>281866571Nice QAnon-level conspiracy logic. Sony isn't deliberately underselling a movie's projections so they can go "surprise!" with a $25M OW later. They're being conservative because they know:>Runtime is long>Anime is niche in America>Football season is a black hole>Week 2 is a guaranteed falloffSony isn't dumb (unlike Demon Slayer fans). They're tempering hype because they understand the US market which (You) don't.
Kagurabachi will mog kimetsu save my post
>>281866881You're coping so hard its funny>Week 2 is a guaranteed falloffyou mean like every movie in history?even at 23M. a multiplier of 1.6 (typical anime multiplier in the US. mugen train hit 2.38 btw) would make it earn 36.8M
WINNERS "spammer", I was too harsh on you...
>>281866901>Can't even beat pre anime mashle level of salesKek
>>281866999Lowkey yes? Mashle was at 2.1 million in circulation with 7 volumes, 3 million at 10.Digital is important.
>>281866848i am getting a bit tired seeing this retard coping and samefagging because a random nip cartoon made a lot of moolahnobody takes his insane talking points, hence the samefagging, so why even bother? why even bother pretending he always said X or Y?i truly cannot understand schizos of this magnitude
>>281866307wrong again! he always said he was going to make more than 240 millions, just that it will suddenly stop making money afterwards!
>>281867053>Circulation + digital copeHahaha
>>281866754>box office is calculated day by day, you cannot take an older movies gross and adjust it to current rates.Yes I can. And yes they do, lol. Studios and box office aggregators (BOM, The Numbers, etc) regularly adjust USD totals based on current FX rates, especially for films still in theaters. This happens when a movie is still earning revenue over a long period (like Japan's year-long runs), so the yen shifts meaningfully, and totals need to reflect current conversion to USD. Box office reporting is being standardized for end-of-year comparisons, awards, or investor documents.For instance, MT's USD total changed over time during its run, as the yen fluctuated in 2020-2021. Your Name saw multiple revisions to its global total in USD, depending on when the final box office tallies were closed out. The reported USD figure isn’t locked at the time of the local release. It’s calculated at reporting, and reporting is ongoing for any movie that’s still earning. IC's reported USD from Japan will shift depending on what the exchange rate is at the time of final reporting.>>281866755>a studio actually reporting a movie made LESS than they already reported inThat's not up to the studio. It's up to currency math. If the USD/yen rate slides from 147 to 160, and the total yen gross stays the same, the USD converts lower. This isn't about some PR department "walking back" a statement, it's literally how money works.A studio doesn’t need to say, 'oops, we made less!' What happens is that industry trackers update the final global gross in USD and that total is now lower because the exchange rate weakened. No one retracts anything. They just adjust to the latest FX reality. Reported global box office totals can drop especially for yen-heavy titles when currency weakens during a long-ass run.That's what happens to IC. The fact that you're mouth foaming to deny it tells me you've never followed how foreign currency box office reporting actually works.
>FX will lower IC total lateris this the new cope? kek
>>281865575Temari, Doma... who's the third?

Nobody about this Kny war, we are busy shitting on blacked clover
>>281867460Owie seems like J asked chatgpt and got his cope broken by the salesGODkek
>>281867460You CLEARLY don't even understand how currency works, let alone what the hell you're talking about and it shows. The BOJ stepped in like a frantic janitor trying to mop up a flooding toilet with a napkin. They didn't fix shit, they just delayed the inevitable.The yen was barreling toward 151 because it's weak as shit, the BOJ is spineless, and the US still looked stronger. Then, BOOM, it suddenly cools down to 147 which is not a natural market shift, that's direct or indirect BOJ intervention.BOJ also know they can't do that forever because Japan's trade deficit is still trash, retail sales are weak and wage growth can't keep up with inflation. BOJ rate policy is also still soft, maybe one rate hike in 6 months if they grow a pair but that's unlikely to happen.You think one panicked slap on the wrist is going to reverse years of economic structure problems? Fuck no. The yen will be back in the toilet the moment the Fed stays hawkish or US labor data prints strong.
>>281867979You're so retarded you don't know how currency rates workyouj're comparing yen to USD. that is your point herego ask chatgpt the following ""if the fed lowers interest rate, will yen exchange rate improve from current rates or worsen?""also add "simplify it for 5 year old mentally retarded child"

>JJK S3 info soon
>>281868024For reference, here's what the article says, I'd tranlate it to you line by line, because weebs are naturally retards who don't know shit about what they talk about outside of their turf.https://www.tradingnews.com/news/usd-jpy-struggles-at-147-as-fed-and-boj-policies-collide>USD/JPY consolidates at 147.00 as Fed policy signals loomThe yen didn't get stronger, it fucking stalled. It's "consolidating" = the market is waiting. Why? Because someone stepped in to stop the drop.>The decline from the late July high of 150.92 represents a 2.6% retreatThe yen was nosediving. This isn't a trend reversal, it's a retreat, as in a stall under pressure. That 2.6% is not a real momentum. Just temporary market fear.>For the first time since early July, USD/JPY closed beneath its 50-day moving averageA technical bounce, not a structural change. Traders saw that drop below a moving average and assumed 'BoJ's doing something, pull back.' That is pure technical intervention-fueled behavior. Not an actual yen recovery.>Volatility is building ahead of major macroeconomic eventsEveryone's holding their breath, and why? Because the market doesn't believe this bounce is stable. They're expecting another collapse or a massive reaction. They know this 147 zone is temporary.>Failure to clear 148.18 and 148.80 underscores fading bullish momentumWe’re at a ceiling BECAUSE of intervention pressure whether verbal or actual. That ceiling isn't natural. It's BOJ shoving its hand up the market's ass.>Macro events and political risks add volatilityEveryone's on edge. The yen is standing on broken glass, and it's just waiting for the next nudge to collapse again which isn't a sign of strength or recovery, that's fragile panic-induced resistance.
>>281868159You don't know what you're talking about its so funny if you weren't a hateful retardThe Yen is weak because of high US interest rate. This is how Yen/USD works you dumb fuck. don't get into forex trading (assuming you even have 1k to your name in the first place)>Last month, the U.S. central bank held interest rates steady, maintained its projection for two cuts this year and slightly dialed back its outlook to just one 25-basis-point cut in 2026 and 2027. Traders are now pricing in an 81.9% chance of a September cut, according to LSEG datahttps://www.reuters.com/business/wall-st-ramps-up-september-rate-cut-bets-after-powells-dovish-tone-2025-03-20/If the federal bank does a rate cut, the yen would strengthen. Meaning IC would gain even more money not less. dumb faggot

>>281868209Thanks, faggot. You just outed yourself as a terminally clueless, basement-dwelling forex LARPing idiot with the intellectual depth of a puddle of piss. You're talking big while CLEARLY understanding jack shit about how FX dynamics and box office reporting actually work.>The Yen is weak because of high US interest rate.No shit, retard. That's the most basic bitch entry-level understanding of FX possible. And guess what? That alone DOESN'T mean the yen will magically "strengthen" just because the Fed MIGHT cut.>don't get into forex tradingFunny words coming from a loser who's obviously never held more than a Steam wallet code in his entire life. FX traders would roast your ass alive for making assumptions based on one Reuters quote and thinking it's a 1:1 guaranteed currency shift. Here's a news flash, dickhead: FX doesn’t give a fuck about your waifu, Kimetsu-chan.>If the federal bank does a rate cut, the yen would strengthen.Nice misinformation, dipshit. A Fed rate cut can lead to a weaker dollar but ONLY if>The cut is larger than expected>BOJ doesn’t remain soft as fuck>The market sees value in the yen long termYou're assuming a simple inverse reaction like a child with two crayons. BUT BOJ is still hesitant, even with inflation and unemployment shifts. Even if the Fed cuts, the yen won't strengthen unless BOJ tightens or global sentiment shifts, which it fucking hasn't yet.The FX market is pricing in rate cuts. So if the actual cut is in line or less aggressive? No real FX movement. Or worse? Dollar spikes back UP. IC doesn't get retroactive FX magic. If the yen strengthens AFTER the theatrical run ends? Too late. The USD total is already locked based on the prevailing FX at the time of the box office reporting. You don't get to go back in time and reconvert at a better rate. Your dumbass is treating FX like a crypto portfolio that can be rebalanced post-hoc. It doesn't work that way.
>>281868424My bad, you're so retarded you can't read simple tweet why would I expect you to understand how currency rates work? I really can't expect you to understand forex and currencies. I do admit its quite complex (unironically btw).Keep the cope going lil buddy
>>281868344That's just a headline grab. It doesn’t mean what you think it means. What it means is that the core fanbase in Germany is fired up and buying up early tickets (weebs with alarms set for ticket drops). Probably a heavy concentration of those sales in premium showings, IMAX, and opening weekend events.What it doesn't mean is that it has sustained interest beyond Week 1, crossover appeal to casual audiences or legs. That's exactly what happened with JJK 0, DBS Super Hero, Mugen Train, and everything else in this space: massive initial rush, then a black hole of "who’s still watching this next week?"France is the only European country where anime has real mainstream pull.

>>281868526>Wan PissDBS Super Hero made more in America ($38.1M) than Wan Piss did ($12.7M) and in Mexico alone, it made almost $8M while Wan Piss only did $1.8M.No matter how much Shueisha tries to shill it, Wan Piss will never be on DB's level.
>>281868681So.... DB will never be on kimetsu's level then?Amazing.

No matter how much (You) try to overrate the next big slop, DB will still be bigger and outlive it.
