Apparently, the film has achieved great financial success during golden week in japan, a festive period that took place last week. Japanese distributor Toho has provided updated information on the film’s revenue, which is as follows:
- The Mario Movie was the most popular movie over the weekend in Japan with 2,473,334,910 yen / $18,335,821 grossed between May 5 and 7 (up 34.2% over the release weekend). ).

- It is already the fastest film this year to reach the 6 billion yen milestone. For comparison, they share that it took Top Gun Maverick 31 days to reach that milestone (it ended up grossing 13.7 billion yen / $101 million). During the first 10 days, the Super Mario Bros.
