And according to the comparison given in the article- it crushed UBW, Blood-C, Strike Witches, Star Driver, Negima, Hayate, Gurren Lagann and... Wait, this can't be right, Haruhi

6 more theatres than Haruhi. Disappearance actually earned more per theatre, showing that was likely the limitation.

Ah that makes sense, but still doesn't it put the Index movie in roughly the same status 0_0 ?

I mean it's obviously not going to beat Eva and whatever Ghibli comes up with, but for an otaku series? Isn't that pretty darn impressive

?

Yeah, I wasn't putting down Index. It's more that Haruhi was limited when it first came out. Index did very well in its first weekend. To give another comparison, the first Madoka movie earned 139,753,806 yen over the weekend/3,250,074 yen per theatre. It'll be interesting to follow the trail of how it does over the next few months.

Yes. Really happy to see this movie doing well. More money that can be used to fund Index season 3.

*cough* You know, Ping, I could've taken some commissions for that if you ask me... *cough*

I mean, I'm armed with a tablet now

By the way, apparently as ranks has shown, the Index movie is quite high up, being third compared to other movies. Unrelated to topic: I chuckled a bit seeing Life Of Pi's rank in there, though.

If Seto no Hanayome taught me anything is that Japan loves their Bruce Willis

I wish dude, you know how much I hope for that.

GoddyofAus · 2013-02-25, 11:33

So uhhh, does this pretty much guarantee Index Season 3? It would have to, I would've thought.

Acer · 2013-02-25, 12:05

Kamachi getting richer, hope that money does not end up being diverted to the bank account of some executive.

tsunade666 · 2013-02-25, 12:58

Index S3 is guaranteed before even this movie is announced. This is just to quell the dying fans waiting for it

then their is railgun S. I think they won't show Index S3 and Railgun S the same year

I still wish for the vol 20-21-22 as a movie. Even with limited time. I want to battles there to be epic. The animation used in Alisa's concert was awesome. JC did great on this one.

desrtsku · 2013-02-25, 13:24

^ I hope SANZIGEN stays in there too.

UUUUAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!! If it can stay on top 10 for at least 3-4 weeks it might turn out to be quite a big number

LOL of course that's what's going to happen.

Well not all of it, but certainly he's not getting the big piece.

Indeed, except for very few exceptions, author rights for movies or animations are not paid that high.

As with most writers, Kamachi's main income comes from his novels, and next to that from the manga.

He probably gets something nice from the extra pieces he writes, but it won't measure to the real profit from the attached products.

Requiem-x · 2013-02-25, 17:53

So, basically, INDEX STRONG

I told you, already big show and idols, winning combination.

He must be getting a chunk big enough to churn out so much material for one movie. Or he just reaaaaaaaaaaallyyyyy loves writing this stuff. personally, I hope it's 90% of the former and 10% of the latter (I'm realistic).

Chaos2Frozen · 2013-02-25, 18:01

They commission him to write the material yes, but he's not being paid by the letter
