2001 turned into a record-breaking year for Japanese cinemas, with total ticket sales jumping to about 163.3 million — roughly a 20.6% rise from 2000.
Hayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Away, distributed by Toho, dominated the market and dethroned Titanic to become Japan’s highest-grossing film, finishing the year near $227 million domestically.
