Wow, given the population of Japan is about 130 million, that is staggering for one film.

Yeah, seems unlikely.

EDIT: Maybe not: Babelfish translates it as 450K viewers over a four-day period... :sweat:

Oh okay...I thought that number was kind of large...that would mean more than 1 in 3 Japanese would have seen Nodame. Hehe.

Wishful thinking. :mrgreen:

Hehe...perhaps. ^_^

Still to be ranked second after 3 weeks in release is nothing to be shy about.

Nodame Cantabile Saishū Gakushō Zen-Pen (Nodame Cantabile: The Final Score Part I), the first film in a two-part theatrical finale inspired by Tomoko Ninomiya's Nodame Cantabile musical romance manga, stayed at #2 during the December 26-27 weekend after debuting the previous weekend. According to Variety and Rentrak Theatrical, it earned US$3,011,040 on 409 screens for a total-to-date of US$14,092,110. The two movies continue the story of the 2006 live-action television drama series and this year's two-part Nodame Cantabile Shinshun Special in Europe television special. Ninomiya's original manga ended in October, and a spinoff manga launched in December.

That's a healthy haul for a Japanese film.

Seems minuscule by U.S. standards.

Yeah but the domestic film market is much smaller in Japan.
