[KineJapan] The marketshare of Japanese films in Japan

[John Gorman]

Hi,

I ask a similar question every couple of years.  

According to the Motion Picture Producers Association of Japan, the share of Japanese films shown in Japanese cinemas has steadily risen from 27.1% in 2002 to 65.7% in 2012.  

2012 also saw a record number of Japanese films released (554) and record box office receipts for Japanese films (¥128,181). (From 1955-2012).

Does anyone have any ideas on why this has happened?

Best regards,

John Gorman
