Last weekend, there were three new films in the Japanese box office charts, followed by the film version of the TV series of the same name starring Oguri, the Toei special film Shuriken Ninja vs. the Teenage Ninja the Movie Ninja in wonderland, and the American biographical film Walking in the Clouds. Among them, the "Nobunaga Concerto Movie Edition" won the championship without suspense, and "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" fell to the second place in turn, failing to achieve a four-week consecutive championship.

The Nobunaga Concerto was originally created for Ishiibu in 2009 and serialized in The Elementary School Hall Weekly Young Sunday, and in the summer and autumn of 2014 Fuji Television launched a TV anime of the same name and a live-action TV series of the same name based on the manga. As a planner for Fuji Television's 55th anniversary, the TV series invited young stars such as Oguri Shun, Shibasaki Yuki, Rishi Xiang, and Takayuki Yamada to air on the famous ninth of the month (Monday at 9:00 p.m.), and immediately announced the news of the film. The story tells the story of Saburo, an insensitive high school student, who accidentally travels through time and space to return to the Japanese Sengoku in 1549, where he encounters Oda Nobunaga. Because of the similarity of the two, Saburo agreed to Nobunaga's request and replaced the frail him as "Oda Nobunaga" on the stage of history, but Saburo did not know anything about Japanese history, coupled with a weak personality and acted casually, making a lot of jokes in the Oda family, but a series of oolong events invisibly pushed the Oda family to the peak of history, and history seemed to be developing in the right direction. The movie version will conclude the whole story, and Saburo, who plays Nobunaga, and Main nobunaga, who lives on the identity of Mitsuhide, will usher in the final battle at Honnoji Temple. Saburo's ultimate fate, including the final fate of Oda's family, will be revealed. The film version follows the lineup of the TV series version, which has great appeal to audiences who have watched the TV series, and is also the usual popularity method of Japanese live-action films.

The film was released on a medium scale on 325 screens, mobilized 465,956 viewers on the opening weekend, and grossed 615,988,400 yen at the box office, which was 38.7% higher than the same period of the previous starring film "Lupin III" (the final box office of 2.45 billion yen) in Oguri, and the final box office of "Nobunaga Concerto Film Edition" is expected to exceed 3 billion yen. Japan's Yahoo Movie Channel gave it a rating of 4.20 out of 5, and a large number of fans irrationally gave it a full score. The change of Honnoji Temple is a familiar event in the history of the Sengoku period in Japan, and how to combine it with the most basic elements of the story to reach the end is the biggest attraction, but the general result is well known. Most of the film versions derived from TV dramas cannot avoid the complaint of "too much like sp (two-hour TELEVISION)", and "Nobunaga Concerto" has not been spared.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens mobilized 159,769 viewers in its sixth weekend and grossed 263,278,600 yen at the box office. Although it is inferior to the six consecutive weeks of last year's Disney blockbuster "Super Marines" (the final box office of 9.18 billion yen), "The Force Awakens" has now surpassed "Super Marines" at the cumulative box office, reaching 9.6 billion yen (6.16 million viewers mobilized in total), and the 10 billion yen mark is just around the corner.

The third is the newly listed feature film "Shuriken Clan Ninja vs Tete The Movie Ninja in wonderland", the protagonist of the story "Shuriken Clan Ninja", the 39th work of the "Super Sentai" series launched by Japan's Toei Corporation in 2015, which began airing on TV Asahi in February 2015, and is also the history of the Super Clan after 1994's "Ninja Clan Hidden Rider" and 2002's "Ninja Clan Sword Breaker". Toei's third ninja-themed team was initially composed of three men and two women, with a new addition. This game is the team that appeared on the same stage again after thirty years of the electric shock team change, and it is also the team that appeared again after the "Magic Team Magic Company" and the yellow male warrior appeared again after ten years of the violation. This is the second theatrical version of "Shuriken Clan Ninja" as the protagonist, the first part is "Shuriken Clan Ninja The Movie Dinosaur Highness Messy Ninja" released in August last year with the "Theater Edition Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future"! 》。

The film was released on a medium scale on 317 screens, mobilized 105,911 viewers on the opening weekend, and grossed 16,465,700 yen at the box office, which was the result of last year's "Theatrical Version of Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future" and "Shuriken Ninja The Movie Dinosaur Highness Mess Around Ninja Post!" With a score of 49.9% in the same period, it is expected that the final box office of "Shuriken Team Ninja vs Teenage The Movie Ninja in Wonderland" will fall around 600 million yen.

The last new film is the eighth-ranked "Walking in the Clouds", which is adapted from the personal autobiography of French acrobatic artist Philippe Pat, telling the story of Philippe Pat, who loved acrobatic performances since childhood, and after growing up to become a French acrobatic celebrity, he came to New York to complete the dream of walking a tightrope between the World Trade Center Twin Towers with a height of more than 400 meters. The film was released on a large scale on 592 screens, mobilized 41,986 viewers on the opening weekend, and earned 71,461,600 yen at the box office, and it is expected that the final box office will fall around 500 million yen.

New films worth noting this weekend include the horror film "Filthy: The Room You Can't Live" directed by Yoshihiro Nakamura and starring Yuko Takeuchi and Ai Hashimoto, veteran action film director Toru Murakawa's new work "Goodbye, Dangerous Police", Johnny Depp starring in "Black Mass", and so on.
