Exactly could you imagine having to go to a movie theater to watch any of the Big 3s major fights. Death Note Ls last episodes, AoT was already dragging on but thankfully those were episodes. From what I’m seeing Gojo vs Sakuna is pretty much going to be another movie instead of episodes. If anime wasn’t popular here like how it really wasn’t before Covid none of these new movies would be happening
I also feel like anime movies (in theatres) should make sense without watching the show. So either it’s the beginning of the series or it’s something like JJK 0, where it’s a prequel that requires no knowledge from the anime to understand. But it is lowkey genius what they did with Infinity castle. A decent amount of people who hadn’t seen demon slayer binge watched the series to go watch the movie in theaters.
RIGHT?! Like sooo many people didn’t even know the characters 😭 some of my friends who went with me asked me where’s Ichigo and I said excuse me and they were like the orange haired guy you like with the bankai sword and demon scream from TikTok. I went one time alone as well. I get it’s for the money and money is obviously very important
