Choukaguya-hime! Adds Ultra 4DX To Its Revival Run Starting September 18
A four-month run that already passed 2.7 billion yen is being extended with premium formats built for repeat viewers, which means the film's theatrical life is being stretched past the point where a normal run would end.

The revival run of Choukaguya-hime! restarts Friday, September 18 with new premium formats, including Ultra 4DX, which fuses 4DX motion seats with the three-screen ScreenX projection system. The film ran about four months in theaters and passed 2.7 billion yen at the box office. The author visited the final adjustment site and watched an advance Ultra 4DX screening while staff, including Twin Engine, finished the master.
The added formats for the Choukaguya-hime! revival run are MX4D, 4DX, ScreenX, Ultra 4DX, and Dolby Atmos. Ultra 4DX combines 4DX motion seats with ScreenX's three-screen projection, giving a 270-degree field of view alongside effects that move, vibrate, and release water and smoke in sync with the footage.
The effects start in the opening sequence set in the virtual space Tsukuyomi. The seat lurches, shakes when Kaguya runs along the power lines, and smoke appears when she settles on a utility pole. Later scenes spray water, blow wind, and pour warm air around the neck during a hair-drying scene.
