Barely, last one didn't gross over 400m with 120 screenings and got horrible reviews, last time I saw it on yahoo jp it had like 2 stars. That's pretty bad.

>>148887228
Can't wait for her next release. 200 screens minimum are guaranteed. This passed Summer Wars.

>>148891819
A deaf girl that gets bullied by an asshole, who later meet each other in different circumstances.

She blows him off for the past insults.

Joking. She's pretty open about things. I'm glad they don't end up together though. He's an ass.

>>148894892
What? I thought Summer Wars made 8 billion.

Why are people so excited for this? The manga was mediocre.

Does it end exactly the same as the manga?

>>148895140
18 million which is pretty good for late night anime standards. Just to put have some context, this movie will gross more than Batman vs Superman, Feminazi Ghostbusters, or Deadpoll in Japan, with only a fraction of screenings.

I don't really understand the series.

I thought it was trying to say something about the nature of forgiveness and repentance, but even near the end of the series it is clear that all his actions amount to little as he must basically forever be a slave to his past actions from as a child.

From the get-go, the girl was quite tolerant and a total doormat, so when the bully gets bullied himself as a scapegoat for the class, I am not sure how they want us to feel about that.
The bully himself doesn't seem to know either.
He clearly suffered in the place of his former target and was deeply affected by it, especially when his former friends carried it out.
Yet by some twisted logic that seems to lack any empathy, the character was supposed to accept this vigilante justice because of karma?

What gives these people the right to do this?
Did the kid act horribly? Yes.
Does this mean you can act horribly too? No.

Too many of the characters' decisions in the manga just made me mad because they seemed narrow minded at best and nonsensical at worst, leaving me with a story that make me wonder what would've happened if they had acted differently, or had been capable of introspection without self-deprecation.

>>148895336
Wow I am sure it is really hard to out-gross three terrible, poorly-executed western films in an eastern market.
It must be an amazing adaptation.

>>148896167
Why are you so angry at KnK's success?

>>148895097
Nope. 1.7 Bil. Koe no Katachi passed it already last weekend.

>>148896167

I spotted a retard

>>148896190
I am not angry about it, only a bit surprised it is this popular.
I do not think that any of those three movies that you listed are worth a second thought, unlike this series.

>>148896754
>deadpool
>good
It had some decent jokes, but a lot of it was over-done garbage that ends up becoming what it claims to be subverting: a generic capeshit flick.

>>148887228
What did GuP make again?

>>148897356
Like 2.5 billion I think. It will definitely surpass it since GuP made that in close to 50 weeks.

>>148897396
It already passed it on viewings. GaruPan just had that ridiculous 4DX success that inflated the numbers quite a bit. Kinda retarded that KyoAni didn't jump on that.

>>148897748
I think it was an obvious choice for GnP since pretty much everything but the characters was in 3D already. Koe no Katachi or any other 2D anime would look like cardboard cutouts in 3D.

>>148887319
What kind of masochist would date their bully?

How was this compared to lovelive and madoka movies?

>>148898038
It's still outperforming both of them but chances are it wouldn't make as much as they did because there's no reason for multiple viewings of Koe no Katachi.

>>148898204
>the two worst films in that list is sold out
Fug

>>148898229
It will easily surpass Rebellion but no chance at Love Live for sure.

It's also funny seeing it up against all these movies with 3x+ times the screenings.

It'll probably gross about as much as Kaguyahime

Yamada still directs unlike the lazy Shitbo

Wew, only 260M? How?

Maybe this will improve the conditions of the disabled in Japan.

Hahaha who the fuck am I kidding the Japanese are monsters to anyone they perceive as different

How far does the movie go anyway, compared to the manga? I assume it drops a few plotlines

>>148900018

>>148900018

Yamada :
Keion Eiga : 1.900 Mil
Tamako Love Story : 220 Mil

>>148900425
That disparity. I don't think the movie is that great to deserve these numbers to be honest.

>>148899994
It was the film that made him popular, so it probably had very few screen showings at launch.

>>148895336
>Batman vs Superman
>Feminazi Ghostbusters
>Deadpoll

Even i wouldn't pay to watch these. Japanese people are not watching these? Shocking!

>>148897936

The best kind.

>>148900559
I think the fact that such a small movie is beating Hollywood shit with unlimited marketing and hype is already a success.

BDs when?

Will this movie and Kimi no Na wa be eligible for the Oscars next year?

>>148900501
And lastly Oishi :
Kizumonogatari Tekketsu-hen : 800 Mil
Kizumonogartari Nekketsu-hen : 350 Mil and counting.
>>148899994
It was 24 screen movie.
>>148900537
Toho made sure it succeeded and the movie is good enough to warrant passing Ponyo.

>>148898610
Akiyuki Shinbo. You know, the Shaft director? Be proud that Yamada is being compared to him. That's a huge step for her.

>>148900625
Even Kyokai no Kanata Mirai-hen is good enough to deserve beating Ponyo. Ponyo is another case of an overrated movie getting undeserved success.

So is anyone willing to bet on who's the next director to reach Hosoda and Shinkai status next Toho production? I don't see Shaft working with main Toho and neither A-1. Oishi and Nagai have to work outside of their main offices to reach those numbers.

>>148899315
Those are falseflagging threads created by Kyoanifags themselves.

Why did they do it? Who knows. They would do anything to start shit.

>>148900725
How did you know?

I did it as early damage control just in case it did flop

>>148900625
>was 24 screen movie
How many theaters had TLS?

>>148896060
There was no good person in the story. They were all bad in their own way. Even deaf girl was bad because somehow being deaf makes her annoying or something. I don't know. The author comes up with some bullshit excuse.

>>148900775
TLS had 24 too.

>>148900608
You're taking this out of proportion. It only do well in its home country.

>>148887319
Because it's not a romance.

>>148900775
>>148900817
You can argue that TLS was the first time the public was exposed to Yamada as a director instead of watching KEION. And with this movie doing as well as Summer Wars did the path of Yamada seems set to become the next big thing if she concentrates on movies.

>>148900537
Then what does?

>>148892001
I think it's the opposite cuz' the thing called hype to learn isn't there anymore.

>>148900897

>>148900944
It is faggot, it's the highest grossing live action movie that was made domestically. You can't expect it to gross more than it already did because Godzilla has been a non entity in Japan box office and because Nips have a bigger hard on for Western garbage and good animation.

>>148901532

>>148901532

No one cared about manga before anime and it bever was a huge success, which just means no one gives a shit about the story, animation = all.

>>148901993
Nips certainly did, considering the fact that they were so much butthurt that they sued the author.

>>148901993
Except Fuck You Koe no Katchi is already a success before it have a movie sale 400K per volume shit head.

>>148901993
Manga sold decently in Japan, won a couple of awards and had a lot of threads here when it was being serialized.

>>148901993
But the manga was a consistent seller with each volume topping 400k per volume.

>Did it deserve to surpass K-On! the movie so quickly?
No but I'm glad KyoAni is finally getting something good going on because K-On was the last thing they did that I actually liked. And I'm looking forward to watch this, wanted them to animate it even before the movie was announced.

kyoani

>>148901993

Apparently someone other than Kyoani get the money from the viewings and Kyoani will make their money from disk sales? So it could still be a flop for Kyoani, it may sell poorly on bluray?

>>148903167
Kizu 2 has been out for like 2 months.

>>148903543
Not in the US

>>148903461
Who would buy it?
It's the type of movie that after you see it once, you won't want to see it again

>>148903587
Who cares about the US? The limited showings available can barely even make a dent in the overall gross. Koe no Katachi sold more tickets yesterday than Kizu P2 US screenings has available.

>>148903461
>Apparently someone other than Kyoani get the money from the viewings and Kyoani will make their money from disk sales?
Where did you hear that from? The opposite is true. KyoAni is very high up in the production team.

Koe no Flopachi

>>148903461
>anons are this braindead.
I heard KyoAni did Koe no Katachi only to make their brand bigger. They took up all the costs and aren't getting anything in return except the brand recognition. Next yearly report will show how much of a flop Koe no Katachi was truly for KyoAni.

>>148903461
Say, how angry are you that the movie is successful?

>>148903461
And if you're really that retarded then no. KyoAni makes pennies on the dollar in BD sales for this. Pony Canyon is the one benefiting from BD sales.

>>148903461
Production committee includes KyoAni, ABC Asashi, Quaras, Shochiku, Kodansha and Pony Canyon.

KyoAni produces
Pony Canyon helped with the music and VAs
Quaras is an advertising firm
Shochiku is the one who decides where and how many theaters will show it
Kodansha is the manga publisher
I don't know what ABC Asashi is doing

I don't know how they're dividing the profit but KyoAni is on top of the committee so they most likely risked the most on this and may get a higher share.

>>148903767
ABC is international rights.

>>148903767
Asahi not Asashi.

It's just too niche.

Honestly Kyoani's novel/merch division in general just doesn't have enough marketing to attract the attention of professional writers. Their last and only real output from that work is Violet (and Robotic Heart Update, which got a honorary mention), and afterwards it's ogre for two years. This year is the eighth competition and I fear that it's as >>148912944

You now realise that Yoshida has written 3 movies with nearly 7 Bil Yen between them.

>>148918885
why is yamada the only one who does originals?

>>148919516
She's their ace. That's what Kyoani is about, training their young talent and letting them have the spotlight

>>148919516
Takemoto and Utsumi both did originals in the Free franchise. But Yamada is maybe the most proven director for the Hatta couple.

>>148919516
Technically Free TV was original, not even the same name as the LN(High Speed).

Saturday

At an average of 1,600 yen a ticket. It probably made around ¥67,587,200

Early 30's Yamada officially blew mid-20's Yamada the fuck out.

Are you stupid or something?

>>148920061
What's next in Yamada's plan?

>>148920126
>not a romance
Even worse

>>148920061
Yamada is the youngest successful Anime director. Youngest director to 20k+BD Sales and Youngest director to 1.5Bil+ box office performance. Can't wait to see her career develop more.

Bride's story adaptation

>>148920354
I always hoped for a Yamada/Yoshida adaptation of that but we all know that there is no way that Manga is getting an adaptation.

>>148920354
I wish. And only KyoAni could do those beautiful details justice.

>>148920354
No way. It's not about Japanese highschoolers.

>>148920636
Tamako Marquet was about middle schoolers.

>>148920636
This. Would go with Ishidate/Yoshida.

>>148920696
>Ishidate
Literally a meme director.

>>148920696
I'll kill myself if Reiko Yoshida isn't VEG's series composer

I like it when Yamada directs. Since she doesn't do LN adaptations her stuff feels already superior from the get-go without the usual internal monologuing and over expository dialogue that comes from adapting from such medium.

>>148920791
My money is on Jukki.

>>148920840
Don't even joke about that

Good thing he's doing Hibike

>>148920918
He has done back to back KyoAni shows before and Yoshida already has that PA show next spring.

What show?

>>148920804
I love the way she directs characters and the environment. The characters are always really full of life and the photography fleshes out the room pretty well.

>>148921560
I think she depicts characters the best out of their directors.

>>148921716
The best out of anyone of the newer generation. Tamako Love Story had moments of Takahata brilliance.

>>148920458
Why not? Its quite popular

>>148922525
The author has gone on record saying she doesn't have any plans for doing an adaptation of her work.

That's a boost of 113,260, and the other volumes have a similar bump (volume 2: 110k copies).

Why does Shouko looks happy? When they see the move in the manga when they go to the movie is when Shouko is super depressed and Ishida is trying to cheer up
