This was announced by the secretary general of the convention organizing committee, Akira Shimazu, on the 12th.

According to this, the revenue of the tournament is expected to reach 67.8 billion yen, an increase of 4.8 billion yen from the pre-meeting budget due to the fact that the ticket sales rate reached a record high of 99.3%, which was higher than expected.
