No.6:Crayon Shin-chan Honeymoon Hurricane: The Lost Hiroshi [2.08 billion yen]
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
This is the 26th Creesin movie in a row.
The 2016 release of Bakuza! Yumemi World’s Great Assault” and became the fourth best-performing film in the series’ history to break the 2 billion yen mark.
It was the first film work since Akiko Yajima, the longtime voice of the main character Shinnosuke Nohara, announced that she was dropping out of the series and casting Yumiko Kobayashi as the second generation, but it seems to have been accepted successfully by fans.
No.5:The Mewtwo Strikes Back EVOLUTION [2.98 billion yen]
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
This is the 22nd Pokémon movie in a row.
The last two films were original stories that had nothing to do with the animated TV series, but this one was produced as a 3DCG remake of the legendary first film, Mewtwo Strikes Back.
Because it was a remake and it was a different experiment with full 3DCG, some fans felt it was a bit hard to approach, and the box office revenue was lower than the previous work.
No.4:Doraemon the Movie: Nobita’s Exploration of the Moon [5.02 billion yen]
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
This is the 39th Dora movie.
It is based on the episode called “Heterosexual Club Member’s Badge” from the original volume 23.
The previous film “Nobita’s Treasure Island” was the first in the series to reach 5 billion in sales for the 38th film, and both movie and anime fans were shocked.
This time, it has surpassed the 5 billion mark and is becoming more and more important as we approach the 50th anniversary of the series and the 40th movie in 2020.
No.3:ONE PIECE STAMPEDE【5.55 billion yen】
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
The 14th film of One Piece the Movie.
Since “ONE PIECE FILM STRONG WORLD” became a hit, the desire for big movies is increasing, but this one is a commemorative work for the 20th anniversary of the TV anime broadcast, so it has become even more epic.
As a result, it became a bigger hit than the box office of the previous film “ONE PIECE FILM GOLD”, and its reputation is growing.
It seems that “Reiwa” will continue to reign as a very popular work as always.
No.2:Detective Conan: Fist in the Dark Blue [9.37 billion yen]
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
This is the 23rd Conan film in a row.
With the introduction of a new popular character named Toru Amuro, this film further surpassed the previous film “Zero Executioner”, which showed explosive growth at the box office, and became the highest-grossing film in the series for the seventh consecutive film.
The main character in this film is Makoto Kyogoku.
His girlfriend, Sonoko Suzuki, with her hair down, was well-received as a cute girl, which may have been a tailwind.
No. 1: The Weather Child [14.04 billion]
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
The most widely watched movie of 2019 was Your Name. This is the latest film from director Makoto Shinkai, who became a man of the moment with “Your Name” and has become the next big thing in the film industry.
The theme song and music was also by Radwimps, and before the release of the film, some people thought that it would be in the style of “Your name is going to be in the same style as your name,” while some old fans thought that “there is no way that director Shinkai will make a film that is completely devoid of entertainment twice,” and there was a lot of speculation about it.
The weather was finally released and the film was a well-balanced work that was different from your name, but also different in taste from the past Shinkai films.
While it didn’t reach the 25 billion mark at the box office of Your Name, it was the second film in a row to break the 10 billion mark.
The biggest story of the year became the biggest hit of the year.
