According to Toho, in addition to the fact that the original manga and the anime that was broadcast last year were already gaining popularity from a wide range of generations, the number of movie screenings has decreased as a whole due to Corona, so it can be shown on many screens That is one of the factors behind the increase in box office revenue.
It is the first time in about a year since the box office revenue of a Japanese movie exceeded 10 billion yen since the animation work "Weathering with You" directed by Makoto Shinkai released last year.
