Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc Enters All-Time Anime Top 20 at About $139 Million

MAPPA's film leans into Tatsuki Fujimoto’s manga style to strong reviews, with home-release timing still unannounced.

Overview

  • The worldwide gross is estimated at roughly $139 million, pushing the film to No. 20 on the all-time anime list after topping Pokémon the Movie 2000 and The Wind Rises.
  • North American receipts have reached about $30.76 million through day 10, making it the market’s sixth highest-grossing anime release.
  • In Japan the total has passed ¥7.84 billion (around $50 million) on about 5.2 million admissions, while South Korea is near $20.7 million after a weekend drop to second place.
  • MAPPA and director Tatsuya Yoshihara reworked the look to mirror the manga with thicker lines, reduced shading, brighter colors and more exaggerated action.
  • Critical and audience scores are strong, and streaming or disc dates have not been announced, with outside estimates only suggesting a potential Crunchyroll window in March 2026.
