Super Prettycure Breaks a Record in Two Days with 60,000 Advanced Ticket Sales

Only two days after its release on February 3 and Toei Animation’s upcoming feature film “PreCure Super Stars!” has already broken a record with a total of 60,000 advanced ticket sales.

In the 15 years that the series has ran and out of its 24 films, this is the highest record that the magical girl franchise has reached. With such a high success mark for the franchise and the ongoing 15th TV series “Hugtto!

It was with its 2015 film “Futari wa PreCure Max Heart the Movie” that the franchise last reached a high record, having reached a total of 43,000 sales at a time that the franchise was in one of it’s peaks of popularity in Japan.

On the earnings record side of the franchise however, with a total of 1.11 billion yen in March 2010, “PreCure All Stars DX2: Light of Hope – Protect the Rainbow Jewel!” takes the record.

Featuring the 12 PreCure girls from the recent three TV series “Maho Girls PreCure!”, “Kirakira PreCure a la Mode”, and “Hugtto! PreCure”, the film is set to officially be released in Japan on March 17.
