The Last Earned 1.47 Billion Yen by 3 PM Opening Day

[Schɛrzσ]

The Last: Naruto the Movie is now playing in Japan and fans in the Land of the Rising Sun are enjoying the movie to its fullest! According to the website for Japanese newspaper Nikkan Sports via TOHO (the movie’s distributor), Naruto’s latest big screen adventure earned an estimated 1.47 billion yen by 3 PM on opening day. In US currency, that’s over 12 million dollars!

To put it into a different perspective, it took Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie a few weeks to surpass the 1 billion mark and that is the highest grossing Naruto movie ever! In fact, in its entire 2012 theatrical run, Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie grossed a total of 1.48 billion yen.

We can only wonder what the final sales numbers will be for The Last: Naruto the Movie when it’s all said and done, but we are truly proud as Naruto fans! From Saiyan Island to Masashi Kishimoto and the team behind The Last: Naruto the Movie, congratulations on this great achievement!

That's some Miyazaki-level amount of box office for the opening day of an animated movie in Japan. Kishimoto along with the whole staff involved in the movie must be proud of this achievement right now.

Kishi milking the series

Kakashi and Sasuke doesnt even have a decent timepanel in the movie . Dissappointed.

 

[Natsu Shazneel]

NaruHina > all

 

[villain55]

Naruto was one of the greatest series of all time, and with it's ending of course a lot of people would see it.

 

[Angelic.]

¥¥¥¥¥¥

[TheAncientJinchuuriki]

It'll make more if it's released in North America and Europe

 

[Aikor]

Now they should improve the naruto anime with the money they got!!!

 

[Naruto X Hunter]

If Sasuke was in it more Soloing then it would have made double + more on Kaguya,Indra,Ashura,etc,but nope,all about pairing.

 

[Naruto X Hunter]

Now they should improve the naruto anime with the money they got!!!

Indeed.At the very least,Naruto Vs Sasuke should have absolute perfect animation

 

[datdudeondatcouch]

And the butthurt NS fans said it would flop Lol.

Good for you Kishi and Studio.

 

[DoubleKamui]

Lol I can imagine Kishi and SP are swimming in their pool of cash, giving no fks about everyone else's opinions about the movie or the series.

 

[Ragnar Lothbrok]

Thats only in Japan. But imagine the world. Lol

Amazing, I have a feeling the Last will be in theaters where I live because of its potential popularity.

 

[Romy9]

No wonder he's gonna make more movies.

 

[MAN OF SIN]

Naruto was one of the greatest series of all time, and with it's ending of course a lot of people would see it.

One of the greatest series with a main character like Sakura?

If Sasuke was in it more Soloing then it would have made double + more on Kaguya,Indra,Ashura,etc,but nope,all about pairing.

That family sucks.

 

[Naruto X Hunter]

One of the greatest series with a main character like Sakura?



That family sucks.

Sakura's pretty good,and it's not like she gets as much panel time as Naruto and Sasuke.

As for Oostutsuuki's - if the movie wasn't mainly about a pairing and was about them then your thoughts would probably be different.

 

[Natsu Shazneel]

Now they should improve the naruto anime with the money they got!!!

You should offer them some money. Since you are rich after all. Lol

 

[Dragon Master]

Japan loves NaruHina more.

 

[KingHashirama]

Because it contained the words "Naruto THE LAST". If its the last Naruto movie or item .. its bound to surpass others.
