        None for this year yet.

        In 2025, when “Infinity Castle” released, there were four superhero movies in theaters - three from Marvel (Captain America 4, Thunderbolts, and Fantastic Four) and one from DC (Superman).

        And Demon Slayer made more money than all four of them.

        • Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle - $781 million
        • Superman - $618 million
        • The Fantastic Four: First Steps - $521 million
        • Captain America: Brave New World - $415 million
        • Thunderbolts* - $382 million

          God I forgot all of those came out this past year. More surprising that superman beat all the marvel ones.

          Also amazing that a part 1 movie of a series finale of an anime did so well in the box office. Although Demon Slayer has definitely been a pretty big brand for a few years now.
