What do yen figures say?
Anime News Network reported that the 2025 film had earned a cumulative 1,722,724,500 yen (about US$11.71 million, ANN's conversion) after its third weekend. That is a mid-run total, not the final gross.
The 2026 film, Super Strange! My Yokai Monster Vacation, opened in third place with 441,000 tickets and 539,371,500 yen (about US$3.41 million) over its first three days, according to ANN. It is described as the 33rd 2D anime film in the series. We did not find a later total for it.
How to read these numbers
Box Office Mojo converts local takings to dollars, so the dollar total depends on the exchange rate it used and can differ from the yen total reported by Anime News Network. Do not compare the two directly.
These are ticket-sales figures. They do not show what TV Asahi, Shin-Ei Animation, Toho or the production committee earned.
Where public evidence stops: We did not find a single sourced list covering every Crayon Shin-chan film, and The Numbers shows only some of the series without a stated currency or as-of date, so we left those rows out. Final yen totals for the 2024, 2025 and 2026 films were not confirmed. Older entries are not in the table.
What do these figures not show?
These are ticket-sales figures for theatrical runs only. They do not show what the production committee, Toho or the animation studio earned, and they exclude home video, streaming and merchandise.
