Yo-kai Watch: almost 1 million tickets sold for the second movie, Yo-kai Watch Busters update

Yo-kai Watch movie

On Saturday, the second Yo-kai Watch movie (called Yo-kai Watch: Enma Daioh to Itsutsu no Monogatari da Nyan!) came out in Japan. It didn’t do quite as well as the first one, as “only” 974 557 tickets were sold during the first two days. It generated 1 057 808 800 yen (roughly $8.7 billion) in revenue.

In comparison, the first movie sold over 1 million tickets… even before it came out. It also generated over 7.6 billion in revenue, but that’s for all the weeks it was in theatres.

Fun fact: this second Yo-kai Watch movie actually sold more tickets than Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but only during those two days (Saturday and Sunday). The latest Star Wars movie opened on Friday, so it sold more tickets on the Friday-Sunday timeframe (and generated more revenue, even during the Saturday-Sunday timeframe).
