GUILTY still can sell more if the non yet counted sales are higher (the online sales+ the other stores that are counted only when total sales are posted which we refer as x1.7). If it's higher than kobukuro's so it's still can be #1.
We need to wait for tomorrow to see if it will be #1 or #2 at this point we still can't be sure =P

so avex will do that or this is only ur opinion ?? :D

i think 5 and 6 january ayu sell more than kobukuro:D

so the copies sold from online stores are counted in the end of week (x 1.7)?

so all the sales of cdjapan & co aren't yet counted?

no...I don't think it will
The total of the first and second week of Secret is 386,280+108,119=494399

Nope, the x1.7 is just the estimation but ayu's can be like 1.8 and kobukuros 1.79 or something then it can sell more, so we'll know it only tomorrow when the total sales (with the x1.7 thingy) are counted.

Haha I have no clue but if they really want to keep her streak I wouldn't be surprised if they would.

I think Kobu is x1.65 and Ayu more than 1,75.

It's not fair...kokukuro and exile sold for one more day.

Because first week they count only 6 days... =\
but still GUILTY just might be #1 at the end, we just need to wait for tomorrow lol.

^
It will be so sad to see her lose her number one. I'm praying that it won't happen

we're all praying for her ^^

I'm sure avex will use it's 'influence' to make sure GUILTY is #1 on 1/5 and 1/6, thus giving it the weekly #1. GUILTY is doing quite well considering how badly its singles did on the digital charts, I'm impressed. 'Together When...' must really be helping.

I think positive praise for the album in general is also helping.

Most people seem to like it [amazon.jp / HMV..]~

we really need a miracle...kobukuro has a large oldies fan base...so they have a strong sales...

Not really. A lot of their fans were gained in the last two years. Around (m)u, NAMELESS WORLD came out.

i think avex must do it for keep her streak..
lets pray together

Hm I think this album was much more well received than for example (m)u. I guess the promotion with a power ballad does help because Japanese love those kind of ballads. Btw which record label are kobukuro?

Yeah, and apparently it was only rated down at Amazon because some idiots didn't like that people were rating it so high without it "releasing officially" yet. :|

Stuff like this always happens... in YA and CDJapan people constantly rate high/low before the release date.

let's pray for Ayu.........!!
