Like clockwork, X/twitter At the same time, the Japanese also released “Balse”, which caused a lot of discussion. Unfortunately, unlike the previously aired Laputa: City in the Sky“Balse” did not break X/twitterPopular pages in Japan. On the contrary, this word did not even enter the domestic hot 29 rankings. Although the article cited many assumptions about the downward trend, none of them could be verified.
While the Japanese usually take pleasure in posting “Balse,” some official accounts also posted the word during the show airing in 2024. The first is the official X/ of the Kinyō Roadshow (Friday Roadshow) program blocktwitter account, the second one is Heidi – Girl of the Alps X/twitter account.

The tradition of releasing “Balse” during the broadcast Laputa: City in the Sky Still going strong. But due to some unknown factors, it has no trend factor on X/twitter. Hopefully, the reasons that caused “Balse” to fall completely off the hit charts can be resolved before the movie’s next airing.
