Let the encore screening commence. If you were one of millions of people to see One Piece Film Red in the theaters, then congratulations. You are now a part of history. First released over a year ago on August 6, 2022 and running until January 29, 2023, One Piece Film Red has broken box office records across Japan to become the highest grossing One Piece film of all time. And that\u2019s not all. With the hit film currently doing encore screenings across Japan, which are also topping the box office charts, discover how this seafaring musical adventure made history. One Piece Film Red makes history On October 30, 2023, One Piece Film Red became the 8th film in history to pass \u00a520bn (US$143.08mn) in Japan. Over a year after the movie premiered in Japan, One Piece Film Red continues to pass historic box office milestones to become the highest-grossing One Piece movie of all time and surpassed Studio Ghibli\u2019s Howl\u2019s Moving Castle (2004) the 4th highest grossing Japanese film ever. The One Piece official Twitter account released a commemorative poster, as shown above, on October 31 to celebrate the milestone. The poster is accompanied by simple text stating that One Piece Film Red has surpassed 20bn yen in domestic box office earnings, including last year\u2019s (2022) screening. One Piece Film Red encore screenings breaks records To celebrate, the movie is currently holding encore screenings, beginning October 20, across Japan which have also topped the box office charts. According to a statement on One Piece\u2019s website, this encore screening ranked at #1 in its opening weekend and made \u00a5300mn in revenue on the back of 230,000 tickets sold. Combined with the earnings during the original run, that means over 14.5mn tickets have been sold. When the film was first released, it immediately became a box office hit. On its opening day, it surpassed \u00a51bn, making it the third film ever in Japanese history to reach this landmark, the second biggest opening day of all time in Japan, and also achieving the highest ever opening for an IMAX movie. This, added to with the original release revenue, caused the movie to become the 8th ever in Japan to cross \u00a520bn in earnings. One Piece Film Red plot The musical pirate adventure, from Toei Animation and directed by Goro Taniguchi who is known for Code Geass (2006), is the fifteenth feature film of the One Piece film series. But unlike previous movies, One Piece\u2019s creator Eiichiro Oda was heavily involved in the film\u2019s production \u2013 which could account for its phenomenal success. The movie follows the adventures of Shanks, Monkey D. Luffy\u2019s childhood hero and one of the Four emperors and introduces Uta, a world-famous singer in the universe who wants Luffy to stop being a pirate. If you\u2019d like to see what all of the hype is about, but don\u2019t live in Japan, you\u2019ve nothing to worry about. The movie is also available on Crunchyroll for an English-speaking audience (although you won\u2019t get the full cinematic experience).
