If it wasn’t clear that anime is becoming a bigger part of mainstream culture, it should be now. That’s because “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba — Infinity Castle,” the latest cinematic entry in the highly successful Japanese animated franchise, has just made history. It now stands alone as the highest-grossing anime movie in history at the box office, overtaking 2020’s “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: Mugen Train.”
“Infinity Castle” topped the domestic box office for a second weekend in a row with $17.3 million. Even though that was a massive 75% drop from the anime’s massive $70.6 million box office opening take, it was enough to hold onto the top spot for a second frame.
