Demon Slayer: Mugen Train is available in North America. Waiting to find out the weekend’s proceeds, it already seems possible to talk about the expected success, at least to welcome the audience. The film is currently 100% fresh on rotten tomatoes for critics and audiences alikeand many fans talk about full halls despite the censorship visa.
As for the reviews, except for rotten tomatoes Demon Slayer: Mugen Train offers a Metascore of 80/100 on Metacritic, with positive reviews from all the trade press and even 100/100 from the San Francisco Chronicles newspaper. Polygon describes the film as “deserving the wait and its success” during Variey writes that it is “an adrenaline-pumping and indispensable film for fans”. Dawn of the Geek assigns 4/5 to the movie while on IMDB According to an estimate of around 6,000 viewers, the film is a solid 8.3 / 10.
On social media, fans talk about full rooms with an average age of around twenty, especially since then rigid visa censorship for the film by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), which has opted for a Rated-R rating (not unaccompanied under 17 years of age). To VICE microphones, Japanese animator Nobuyuki Tsugata said he was disappointed with the choiceespecially when you consider that the film can also be seen by 12-year-olds in Japan without any problems.
Finally, as far as revenue is concerned, we need to get the first official numbers between Sunday 25th and Monday 26th April, but to make a good debut The film is expected to make at least six or seven million dollars in the first three days after launch. Right now, the record for the most-watched anime in North America is held by the first PokΓ©mon movie (roughly $ 85 million), but “only” $ 20 million is enough to make it into the top 5, a number which is certainly within reach of the film which has already garnered 400 between Japan and six other eastern countries.
