Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection "F" opened last week to great success, becoming the first independent movie to earn itself a spot among the top 10 highest grossing domestic anime of all time.

According to FUNimation Entertainment, since its release last Tuesday, Resurrection "F" has grossed an impressive $5.97 million at the North American box office.



"It’s a great film that loyal DBZ fans, and fans of anime, have helped push into the record books in just 6 days," FUNimation EVP and COO Michael DuBoise said. "Great word of mouth, extremely positive reviews, plus a film that appeals to core fans and is creating new fans, have led to sold-out shows, repeat viewings, and additional theaters being added through Wednesday."

IGN's Shawn Saris was impressed with the animated feature overall, praising it for its "classic DBZ humor and action" as well as its "great animation" and "new transformations." For our full assessment on the movie, you can read his review here.
