What is the valid reason for ‘showing’ even now, more than a year after the release of ‘Kimetsu no Yaiba Mugen Train’?

The latest animation of the Kimetsu no Yaiba series, “Yukaku Hen,” reached its final episode on February 13, 2022.

On the same day, the production of the following work, “Swordsmith’s Village,” was announced, and I’m worried about future developments.

And, as of February 15, 2022, you know that the movie version of “The Devil’s Blade” Infinite Train Edition (from now on referred to as “Infinite Train Edition”), which ranked first in Japan’s box office revenue ranking, is still being screened in theaters. Is not it.

This time, I will look back on the box office revenue of the work and consider the reason.

It is still being screened in the “100 Best Revenues of All Time”. Where are you showing
As of February 13, 2022, “Infinite Train Edition” continues to be number one in the “100 Best Revenues of All Time”.

The latest box office revenue is “40.43 billion yen”, and the box office revenue in Japan announced by Aniplex on May 24, 2021, is “40 billion yen”, so it is 430 million yen after about eight months. It means that the amount of yen has increased.

It’s no wonder that the increase in box office revenues is due to the occasional revival screenings of past films, but the most disturbing thing is that they are still showing as of February 13, 2022. It is in a state.

Of the 100 best box office revenues of all time, only two films, “Infinite Train Edition” (1st place) and “Theatrical Version Magical Battle 0” (27th location), are still being screened.

The latter will be released on December 24, 2021, so there is no particular discomfort still being screened.

So, where is “Infinite Train Edition” currently being screened?

The answer is one “ufotable CINEMA” building in Tokushima.

This movie theater is run by ufotable, an animation production company that produces the Kimetsu no Yaiba animation series.

Furthermore, on October 16, 2021, one year after the screening started, the contents of the stamp rally for “ufotable CINEMA” and two other ufotable related stores were renewed, and the end date is undecided.

In addition, the screening end date was not specified on the official website.

In the past, when it was talked about whether “Spirited Away” would exceed the box office revenue of “Spirited Away,” which was number one at the time, the box office revenue was raised by the revival screening of “Spirited Away.” It was mentioned in the news that the number one place was far away with an additional 880 million yen.

Continuing to show at ufotable CINEMA may have the side of preventing the box office revenue from being overtaken by other content, but there are other possible reasons as well.
