In recent years, adapting animated films has become an important commercial model for many popular anime, and many popular anime will release theatrical versions of movies from time to time. In 2022, the animation film market will usher in a "fairy fight" situation, and many top Japanese comics or original animation movies will be launched in this year, such as the following five.
New Ultraman
As a commemorative film for the 55th anniversary of the Ultraman series, Marutani had high hopes for "New Ultraman", not only hiring Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi as producers and general directors, but also the main actors were also big names including Saito, Masami Nagasawa, Hidetoshi Nishijima and so on. Originally, "New Ultraman" was scheduled to be released in the early summer of 2021, but it was postponed to May 2022 due to the epidemic.
Detective Conan: The Bride of Halloween
Every year, "Detective Conan" will launch a theatrical version of the movie to circle money, no, give back to fans, and "Halloween Bride" is the twenty-fifth theatrical version of the whole work. In addition to Conan, the protagonists of this "Halloween Bride" are also a group of police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department and the popular group "Police Academy Five".
"The Bride of Halloween" is tentatively scheduled to be released on April 15, 2022, and various official publicity campaigns have recently been carried out. Since the theatrical version treats Takagi and Sato's wedding as a "gimmick", and there is also the participation of the popular character Amuro Toru, I think the popularity of the theatrical version should be good.
One Piece: RED
Some time ago, "One Piece" officially announced the news that the new theatrical version of "RED" will be released in 2022, which is also another theatrical version of "One Piece" after two years. According to official intelligence, the protagonist of this theatrical version of "RED" will be a woman, and the content is also related to the red hair of the "Four Emperors".
For the new theatrical version of "One Piece" "REN", I think the official should have eaten the sweetness of the 2019 theatrical version of "Operation Mania". At that time, the official launched a former Roger Pirates member Barrett to be the theatrical version of the BOSS, which received huge attention, so this time they still drew gourds, so that the theater version and the redhead have a relationship, so that they can rub the popularity of the redhead.
"Slam Dunk Master"
At the beginning of this year, the official announcement of the production of the theatrical version of the movie was announced. As a childhood classic memory of the post-80s and post-90s generations, "Slam Dunk Master" has many loyal fans in China, plus "Slam Dunk Master" has not been newly produced for many years, so this theatrical version has also attracted the attention of many SD fans.
Since the final chapter of "Slam Dunk Master" has not been animated, fans are expecting that this theatrical version will be the content of "National Competition". It's just that the official has not released any news about the content of the theatrical version, but it is revealed that the theatrical version will be released in the autumn of 2022, whether it is the content of the "national competition" or wait for the official news.
《Suzu Bud Household License》
When it comes to animated films, Makoto Shinkai is definitely a character that must be mentioned, as an animation director, he has produced a number of acclaimed and popular animation movies, such as "Five Centimeters per Second", "Your Name" and so on. In 2022, Makoto Shinkai's new work "Suzuya Toda" will also be released, which is also another masterpiece of Makoto Shinkai after "Weather Child" in 2019.
I have to say that the competition in the animation film market in 2022 is really a "fairy fight", the competitiveness of the 5 films mentioned above is very strong, if the schedule crashes, it is estimated that the audience does not know how to choose. Finally, what do you think about the 5 animated films that will be released in 2022? Feel free to leave a comment in the comments section below.
