Door )” franchise has achieved impressive success in its recent
crowdfunding campaign. In a statement issued by the organizers, it was

donors. This achievement demonstrates the fervent support of fans of the
series.
- The
numbers are interpreted as follows: 30,690,847 yen raised through donations
from 497 people. There are 77 days left until the closing of the
