By reading the audience reviews on sites like Eiga or Filmarks, it really seems like most of them think it's a "genuinely good" and "satisfying" film, compared to first day reviews of 3.0 which had tons of 1-2 star reviews and complaining they don't get the story and "feel", yet it's still successful because of the big name and curiosity factors.
Now 3.0 remains as the lowest-rated film in the franchise on most Japanese film sites. I know, I know, some might disagree and while I'm in a love/hate relationship with 3.0, this is a general opinion from the audience.
So yeah, I'm curious about how it'll perform for the rest of its theater lifetime with such strong first day reactions, but I don't think we'll see a massive dip in consensus rating (like from 4.5 to 2) unless the initial reviews gave people overtly high expectations and they got disappointed when they finally see it.
EDIT:
Found this photo of Grand Cinema Sunshine from yesterday morning (6:30am), it sure as hell crowded. I hope there are no spikes in cases because of this.
