'The World of KJ has finally translated the weekend actuals from Kogyotsushin. While the actuals show it made more money, I was sadly way, way off in terms of attendance.
Alien: Covenant opened to #2 with $3.1M. It fell to Dunkirk, which is in its second weekend. Alien: Covenant had an attendance of 138,297 across 694 screens. That places it under Wonder Woman, Ghost in a Shell and Guardians of the Galaxy 2, but above Logan's opening.
Alien: Covenant is expected to finish its Japanese run with about $10M. That would estimate and attendance around 440,000. (Give or take, depending on the discount days.) To put that in perspective, anything lower than an attendance of 2-2.5 million is usually considered a flop.'

Prometheus brought $3,6-3,8 million during its first Japanese weekend and finished with $21,8 million in 2012.
My opinion: We should admit, money counts. Taking into consideration everything, $10 million is not bad at all.
everything = date of release, it's 2017, hatred spree, typhoon, etc. :)
