That’s interesting. Part of me kinda expected Pokemon to be the highest grossing.

I figure that too. Doraemon is probably more popular in Japan.

In all my casual knowledge of anime, I have never remotely heard of Glitter Force.

Me neither. It seems like fans of Sailor Moon must love it.

If Dragon Ball could start consistently churning out films I could see it going higher but it’s hard to compete with the top 3 since those seem to get new installments every year. Good to see that Naruto jumped on though. Hopefully it can stay in the top 10

Since Naruto series ended I think they may get surpassed at some point. However, DB seems to have left the possibility of a Broly sequel.
