One Piece Film Gold Creators to Attend Special Screening
posted on by Eric Stimson
One Piece Film Gold, the latest entry in the One Piece film series, has hit the jackpot, earning over 5 billion yen (or US$48 million) since it opened on July 23. To celebrate, a special screening has been arranged for September 22 at the Marunouchi Toei in Tokyo. The director (Hiroaki Miyamoto), writer (Tsutomu Kuroiwa) and producer (Hiroyuki Sakurada) will attend and hold a discussion on topics like behind-the-scenes anecdotes and gossip about Eiichiro Oda, One Piece's creator and the executive producer of the film. To encourage a fun atmosphere, yelling, glowsticks and cosplay are allowed.
Tickets to the "Golden Banquet" screening can be pre-reserved at Ticketpia until September 16. General sales will last from September 17 to 21. The "banquet" begins at 6 PM.
Rowdy film screenings are increasingly common in Japan, allowing fervent fans to show their support and let loose a little. Godzilla Resurgence held one in August, while Aikatsu! and Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Dark Side of Dimensions held noisy screenings earlier.
