CATDOLL: Kyoto Animation's film "A Silent Voice" box office exceeds 1.6 billion yen and will break history

The animated film "A Silent Voice" produced by Kyoto Animation has achieved good box office results since its release nearly a month ago. According to the latest news, the box office of the work has reached 1.61 billion yen (about 100 million yuan). Although this figure cannot be compared with "Your Name.", as a niche work, this figure has become the second highest box office result in the history of Kyoto Animation.

Currently, the highest-grossing work of Kyoto Animation is the theatrical version of K-ON!, which earned 1.9 billion yen. Now there is only a 300 million yen difference, and the box office of K-ON! was only 1.32 billion yen during the same period. At present, everyone's evaluation of this work is also quite high. It is almost impossible for this work to become the first in the history of Kyoto Animation.

The comic "A Silent Voice" was previously controversial because of the plot in the story that showed people with disabilities being bullied, but it also attracted many readers because of the overlapping of various human natures of the characters and the plot that reflects reality. Nishimiya Shoko is a hearing-impaired person. She cannot communicate with others smoothly except for sign language and notebooks. After transferring to another school, she is still ostracized by her classmates. Her classmate Shoya Ishida even leads other classmates to bully her. But perhaps it is retribution. An unintentional prank by the whole class broke Shoko's hearing aid. As a result, the whole class unanimously put the blame on Shoya, making him the object of ostracism. Shoko looked at Shoya who was ostracized and wanted to care about him, but was misunderstood. Shoko transferred to another school. Shoya, who was promoted to high school, became a loner. His only wish was to apologize to Shoko in person. And this wish changed when he met Shoko again.
