I used bits of this for the Box Office Gross (original source was this magazine) ranking updates, but most of what’s on this list doesn’t meet the criteria for getting on that ranking, which is intended for film adaptations of, for the most part, late night anime. Of course the biggest earners come from films that have no connection to late night anime. Madoka is the only one in the top 10 for example. This also shows how many more screens mainstream movies get – well over 300, compared to under 100 (or below 40 even) for most late night anime movies.
