Glad to see the original series getting recognized as well as Cardcaptors. Some of the other series made the top 400 like the first Pocket Monsters movie which was 324th, XY 348th and XYZ 209th. Guess we finally have some real data showing the actual popularity of the series in the overall general public in Japan. I'm actually surprised how well the Shaymin movie placed in Japan as it did way better than the first movie.
