Hmm...there's a first time for everything :)
I wonder who will take 1 this week cause it really does feel like anybody's game. Go ayaka and Arashi!!

yup

you look at the sales difference/gap between YUI & VAMPS , it's quite close

I'm sure things will change in the days to come

it's kinda exciting!!!
Hopefully Ami is able to rise as well :)

well even though I'm not a fan of Ami , I'm happy for her I guess since it has been a long time that her single has entered the top 10 on the 1st day

yaiy.. i'm very happy coz you said that..hehe

this is her second highest debut after ATW....
little crystal got #7 daily

haha :laugh

thanks er I guess

Go Kumi!!!
MOON will be moving up the charts very nicely as most of those ones right above her aren't charting anymore :)

Also go ayaka!

eh Ryo what's Ken Hirai's FAKIN' POP weekly chart position for this week ?

any idea ?

^ ohh.. FAKIN' POP is out from top 50..huhhu so i dunno the position

well it has been out of the top 50 for a long time already

is it out of the top 100 though ?

^ i'm sure it still on top 100

Heeeey, HS isn't in the top 30 anymore. :weep I hope it climbs back up into the top 20. Go go Hikki! :shimmy

Yay for misono! She has her first top 10 in two years. I'm so happy for her. This tie-in was really helpful I see. Hmmm....maybe she should start sticking to more video game tie-ins. She should get a tie-in for a squareEnix game like her sister did. :yes Go misono! :yatta


Well, they surely would've had #1 with their last single if AVEX hadn't been promotion *****s at the last minute. :rolleyes Shu was kicking Ayu's ass before that happened. They are tough competition. So I wouldn't laugh at them just because they got #2. :P

It's okay, it only fell to #32... last week it feel to #38!!! So this is actually great news, ne? :luv2

Dang, Shanny, this is why I love you. You're always saying what I'm thinking but before I ever get to type it out :laugh I totally agree, Shu has just had bad luck with their release schedule, but their singles have some serious longevity and selling power.

Oh, okay! :phew That's good. I didn't check wiki.theppn so I didn't know her current position. Since she's at #32 on the charts, I think she'll get back in the top 20. :yes

Is Last Friends airing re-run eppys?


Well like you said, "Great minds think alike!" :bchuck

So what? Promotion and marketing is what help things sell =P
and you know it ;)

And Shuunichin were #2 for 4 more weeks and lost to others but you chose only to mention avex's last minute promotion and didn't mention others who Shuunichin could kick their asses :innocent.

To begin with no one laughed at Shuunichin too! It was just funny that they end up with #2 weekly everytime (with the first single it was #2 for 5/4 weeks) and I also wrote "the poor band" like, it's a shame that they didn't get #1 at least with this single but Arashi was up.

But you have to attack :o

Gooo Ami!~ I won't celebrate for a few more days though...DOLCE debuted in the top 10 and we all know how the rest of the week turned out :(

^Even if she falls, if she had a big enough day she can still stay pretty high up :D Hopefully!

People who are critical of Shuchishin or are laughing at them should take a look at the yearly chart... they have a very good chance of surpassing Thelma Aoyama for the #1 single this year.
