“BanG! Dream” Movie Earns 100 Million Yen After Just One Week in Theaters

Good news to ardent supporters of the BanG! Dream franchise! The 3DCG concert film BanG! Dream FILM LIVE movie was reported to have sold about 51,000 tickets as of this Tuesday. This means that the movie’s ticket sales now total to 100 million yen (about USD 924,000). This comes less than a week after the movie’s premiere date last September 13.

The film is animated by Sanzigen, the same studio that animated previous seasons of BanG! Dream. Bushiroad is distributing the film.  

BanG! Dream! is a multimedia franchise formed by Bushiroad in January 2015. The franchise is composed of releases in the form of manga, music CDs, live concerts, card games, a smartphone game named BanG! Dream Girls’ Band Party! developed by Craft Egg, and a TV anime series. The anime series has ran for two seasons so far; the first aired from January to April 2017, while the second ran from January to March 2019. A third season has also been announced for the series, which is set to air on January 2020.

Sentai Filmworks, which holds the English-language license for the anime, describes the first season as thus:

”When she was a child, Kasumi Toyama felt a heart-pounding thrill every time she gazed at the stars, and she’s been looking without success for something that could inspire the same feeling ever since. One day, she comes across a star-shaped guitar in a rundown pawnshop and, for the first time, discovers the thrill she’s been searching for. Kasumi becomes determined to form an all-girl band, and her search leads her to four like-minded souls: Saya, Arisa, Rimi, and Tae (all brought to life by the members of Poppin’ Party). Does this band have what it takes to make their dreams of stardom come true?”
