Kapanlagi.com - The world of Japanese animation films is currently being enlivened by a film titled DEMON SLAYER: MUGEN TRAIN. This film has been able to shift the classic film SPIRITED AWAY by Mizaki, which originally occupied the first position but now has to be in the second position. In addition, for the past few weeks, DEMON SLAYER has consistently topped the Japanese box office. The film was first released on October 16, 2020.

In the ten days of screening, DEMON SLAYER has earned a profit of Rp 1.4 trillion. Even in the seventh week of screening, this film was able to earn a profit of around Rp 4.38 trillion from the global box office.

The sales are the highest sales obtained from the Japanese box office. The rest of the sales come from countries in Asia such as Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore. DEMON SLAYER is a sequel to the animated film titled DEMON SLAYER: KIMETSU NO YAIBA. This film is an adaptation of the comic by Gotoge Koyoharu with the title Kimetsu No Yaiba. The comic was printed on February 15, 2016 and has now been distributed over 100 million copies.

Before being adapted to the big screen, the anime series KIMETSI NO YAIBA has won the Anime Newtype 2019 awards. The film won many categories, ranging from Best TV Anime Series, Best Male Character (Tanjiro Kamado), Best Female Character (Nezuko Kamado), Best Song, Best Director, Best Character Design, Best Male Voice Actor, and Best Female Voice Actor. It's no wonder the film was able to surpass the classic film SPIRITED AWAY.

2. Defeat Manga Sales of ONE PIECE

KIMETSU NO YAIBA has sold 12.5 million copies of its manga. Meanwhile, ONE PIECE manga sales are at 10.13 million copies. Not only did it make SPIRITED AWAY fall, the manga from this film also surpassed ONE PIECE's manga. Because until now ONE PIECE has been at the top position for eleven years and now it has to be replaced by DEMON SLAYER: KIMETSU NO YAIBA. This is certainly surprising, as ONE PIECE has been undefeated for over a decade.
