Japanese animation, or anime, has been around for decades and has spawned as titles such as "Demon Slayer," "Pokemon," "Naruto." But anime movies have only recently become consistent hits at the U.S. box office. That may bode well for a movie market saturated with sequels and superheroes. NPR's Maison Tran has more.

TRAN: ...All on brand for the anime movies that have come out this year to great success in the U.S. "Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero" grossed over $38 million. And the recent "One Piece: Red" opened with 9 million.
JEFF BOCK: Usually, a film like this would take the box office by surprise, you know? And a lot of analysts wouldn't even mention the film. And now a lot of them are predicting, hey, oh, an anime film's coming in? Oh, that could be number one at the box office. That was just unheard of even three years ago.

TRAN: As passionate as these fans are, there's still a little bit of stigma around this medium, as one might associate cartoons with kids. But Peter Tatara, director of Anime NYC, says there's a lot more in common with a Marvel movie fanatic and an avid anime fan than one might think. And whether a kid is swinging around New York in spandex or flying around Japan in a jumpsuit...
TRAN: As these animated films consistently make upwards of $30 million domestically, they're hitting more than just their target demographic. And Hollywood has taken notice. Sony acquired Crunchyroll in 2021 for $1.2 billion. Netflix and Disney are already licensing and producing anime. But wherever this goes, anime fans...
