Detective Conan achieves another giant and also historic milestone at the box office

0


The Detective Conan franchise continues unstoppable. As announced on its official website, the 28th film in the saga, titled One-eyed Flashback, has surpassed 10 million tickets sold and generated 14.4 billion yen (about $97 million) as of July 16, 2025, just 90 days after its premiere in Japan on April 18.


An unprecedented achievement for Japanese cinema


With this milestone, One-eyed Flashback becomes the second film in the franchise to reach 10 million admissions, after Case Closed: The Million-dollar Pentagram achieved the same feat in 2024. However, it is the first time in the history of Japanese cinema that a series achieves this number of viewers in two consecutive installments.


Attendance and fundraising records


The feature film was screened in 522 theaters across Japan, marking the franchise's biggest release to date. Since its debut, the film has remained in first place in the Japanese box office ranking for five consecutive weekends and is already ranked as the seventeenth highest-grossing film in the country's history, surpassing even Makoto Shinkai's Weathering With You (2019).


A special thank you to the fans


Director Katsuya Shigehara expressed his gratitude for the achievement: "We are grateful to everyone, from the team that makes these films possible year after year, to the fans who eagerly flock to the cinema each season, and also to those who saw a Conan movie for the first time this year. Your continued support is the driving force behind the next project. Thank you for continuing to support Detective Conan." To commemorate this achievement, a special video has been posted on
