SYDNEY (Variety) : Spirited Away (Sen To Chihiro) has already earned 200 million at the box office and is currently overtaking Titanic (219.5 million)!
In the 19th week, the 200 million mark was broken:
Still at 199.3 million on Tuesday, the title managed to reach it by Saturday!
This leaves the previous anime record holder, also by Hayao Miyazaki, Princess Mononoke (163.5 million ), far behind!
For comparison: Asterix vs. Caesar achieved "only" just over 100 million .
In fact, there are only 4 non-Japanese titles that have crossed the 100 million mark.
This shows that top-quality anime can truly overshadow everything else. :-D
