Second, you're an idiot who's flailing temple-tier theatrics like it's going to erase the fact that the last Demon Slayer movie underperformed internationally and got outpaced by a filler MHA film with a third of the hype and none of the spiritual bells and whistles, lmao. This is not a flex BTW. It's desperation guerilla marketing.

They're going nuclear on PR because they know this isn't Mugen Train again (and a lot of Japanese agrees the Mugen Train days are long gone). The recap experiment didn't hold overseas either. They saw that. And now they’re overcompensating with temples and heritage pageantry, trying to front-load interest before word-of-mouth slows it all down again (the seiyuu are all praying for months before the movie drops because they're insecure btw, these prayer events you posted btw). You don't roll out this kind of spectacle unless you’re terrified of Week 2 drop-offs (which they are, see Jurassic World).
You can set a temple on fire and drape it in Demon Slayer banners, and it still won't increase screen retention vs Hollywood blockbusters like Superman, Jurassic World, and Fantastic Four. It still won't improve runtime economics (Infinity Castle is long, that cuts into showtimes). It still won't change the global fatigue surrounding this IP's dragged out final chapters because it's run out of content.
Your picrel is the equivalent of the Flash premiere with Ezra Miller and red carpet chaos. Flashy as hell, but meaningless when the actual box office legs are soft.

One Piece easily. There's a reason why Tomino ranked Oda in his top 3 most important mangaka to Japan alongside Toriyama and Tezuka, and NOT the Demon Slayer hack.
