Nezha 2 finally ended its incredible run at Chinese box office after extending 4 times to 153days (which is higher than average but same as two other films this year).
Even with the fierce 2025 CNY competition, Nezha 2 was always predicted by industry to top the box office this CNY after success of Nezha released back in 2019 （#5 all time in China and #1 all time animation in China) despite 4 other successful sequels and one famous book adaptation released on the same day.
It has earned ¥15.4 B out of ¥29.2B of 2025 first half Chinese box office accounted for 52.8% of the market. It actually has a small dip on the second day due to limited screens. As it starts to obviate the competition, the number of showings started to increase. At one point there’s a cinemas that scheduled Nezha 2 once every 5 to 10 min from 9am to midnight with its 30 screens.
It’s the fastest movie to ever to top the box office on 11th day. 22 consecutive days over ¥100M ($14M) which is unheard of. It’s the first movie to ever break ¥10B and ¥15B in China. It’s 260% more than second place on the all time list in China. It’s the first movie to make a $1B and $2B in single market.
It’s currently number 5 on the global box office chart with ¥15.9 B ($2.2B)

I’m glad i was able to see this when they were showing it in the states.
Legitimately, one of my favorite movies ever now. (I was high af, for context)
Insane numbers for Ne Zha 2 which no one saw it coming given that it’s a Chinese Film
The single market box office record of this film can only be broken by Ne Zha sequel. Or not at all lol.
Simply stunning.
flop alert! clearly no ne zha 3 after this..
This was great to watch in theaters, I’m ready to catch this at home now.
Damn
These numbers are so fake it’s hilarious.
Avatar 3 coming to defeat this for the 2025 crown
