The movie has become the franchise’s highest-selling and highest-earning film installment, in terms of both the number of tickets sold and yen earned at the box office.
The film topped Japan’s box office for 2022 in terms of yen earned and tickets sold.
After tying Princess Mononoke as the #7 highest-earning film of all time in Japan (unadjusted for inflation) and the #4 highest-earning anime film in Japan last week, One Piece Film Red has now formally surpassed the former.
The film previously surpassed Howl’s Moving Castle as the #5 highest-earning anime film in Japan.
