โ Taro ๐ฌ box office summary (@eigarankingnews) November 13, 2022
It is amazing
On the contrary, I’m surprised that it’s ranked 5th even though it’s been so great.
It was so good that I plan to go see it 5 more times this year.
This time, the number one goal is to hit 10 billion.
The number of screenings was amazing, so I feel like it’s going to be closer to the first release than the previous two, but I guess it depends on how word of mouth spreads.
The content is perfect. It’s really amazing to be able to continue this level with an original animation made from scratch.
I want to aim for 15 billion.
Even though it’s a monster with a few boxes, I think it’s a system that will gradually grow in terms of making movies, so I’m looking forward to it!
Some people said that it won’t even reach 10 billion, but it might go somewhere between 150 and 20 billion.
The repeater seemed to be pretty good, and the content was pretty good.
After all Shinkai-san is amazing…
Is this the power of Makoto Shinkai?
Well, it’s not the box office that matters, but it sure seems like it’s getting a lot of attention.
Why do some people try to compare anime movies released at the same time?
