So per-screen dropoff rates were 32.3% for weekend 2, 18% for weekend 3, 31.5% for weekend 4, and now 24.2%. Not bad.

"Ghibli's most successful N. American release..."

Don't you mean "highest grossing" North American release?

Why is there an article every time it falls in the rankings? Guess what: every movie does that.

It draws attention to Ponyo and might encourage anime fans to watch it before it dies out in theatres.

And how many anime movies are being released nationwide in the U.S. these days? Shouldn't the fandom be informed on how these movies are doing over here?
