the sales are okay...KAT-TUN will definitely bounce back in the future though. that is the good thing about JE bands, they have longevity. :yes

Yeah :laugh just got into KAT-TUN lol.

Well I like Jin more anyway ;)

a decline is natural, especially with JE groups. but KT's decline isn't too bad. their singles are still selling strong over 300k (JE albums never really do well anyway). when they start hitting 150k overall for their singles, maybe then i'll start weeping. LMAO.

lol yeah, me & Karen are probably the biggest fans here. :laugh i've been into KT since like...2005. but Karen's collection overpowers mine by a landslide. :P

& a warm welcome to you, ayumisrael! :D
welcome to our crazy thread!

oh good. good. you're a Bakanishi & Koki fan. just stay 1000 miles away from Kame & we're all good. xDD

actually I kinda expected it will not sell as well as their previous albums

physical sales in Japan are just getting worst as each year goes by . KAT-TUN's not like hot property anymore when they can sell a LOT when they finally able to debut 3 years ago

it's ok , I long ago accepted that but KT should consider themselves lucky that they still can pull in about 300K+ for a single & 200K+ for an album now

other artistes are not so lucky as them at all

LOL :laugh

Akanishi was my least fave member then something happened along the line -_-''' in a NON ROMANTIC manner lmao

he's OK to me now , at least he knows how to lighten up here & there

:roflmao

that & Ueda too :innocent

O.M.G , I just saw a pic which made me go @_@

IN NEED OF A GRAPHIC ICON OR 2 FROM EIRYNNE :thud

Kame & Ueda's Break the Records shop photos - http://community.livejournal.com/kat...e/4752456.html

Tat-chan should smile more but other than that he still looks GREAT :smitten

Lol. i just bought 1 album and that is BTR. planning to get the singles too but not so soon.

actually, come to think of it, maybe its due to the economic downturn. i think every single artist is experiencing this especially this time ard. plus, some fangirls are not rich. Lol.

and Karen, i will be receiving my BTR soonnnnn. i cant wait :D.

lol you will get there Dila :laugh

yes & also with their upcoming tour at Tokyo Dome where the songlist/costumes/theme will change on a daily basis , can you imagine for those super rich people who's able to buy tickets for all 8 days ?

O_O

Episode 7 of hardsubbed RESCUE is up & running via http://community.livejournal.com/jon...ds/274674.html

YOSH 2 more episodes to go & the finale for Kami no Shizuku <3

I watched Episode 7 earlier on whee

a bit sad that my younger sister gave up both dramas 1/2 way thoughout the course of time :(

===

is it possible for a 12th thread by tomorrow or Mon ? O_O :innocent

i think there are some people who will buy the tickets for all the 8 days. but it will be rare. how i wish i was super rich that i can fly off to Japan and watch their concert. and is this the concert where Maru needs to do bungee for the concert days? i watch it at YT abt the special performance for Maru. i'll go find the link.

you mean this thread?

I don't know for the bungee jumping issue Dila but I read stuff that Kame's supposedly going to wear a Kimono in the concert off Tsukaya's LJ :roflmao

cos he wants to get in touch with his feminine side LMAO . Is he taking lessons from Kumar or what ? :laugh

:yes

I'm not sure if you know this but on AHS , once a thread reaches 500 posts , you have to start a new thread

don't ask me why 500 , it's just like that as it's

Thank you =DDDD.
:laugh don't worry LOL in the looks department Jin and koki suit my style best, I wonder how are they in bed :rolleyes

Anyway I can't stop listening to TABOO, this song is sooooooooooooooo good.
Are there songs that named TABOO and they are bad? :P lol

o_O

OK ... not going to comment on that lmao

yeah man it's probably the best opening album track that I came across last year , I was so blown away when I 1st heard T∀BOO (correct spelling in the tracklist)

I wouldn't say that they have bad songs since I pretty much like their whole discography xD

but if you're talking about certain songs that I might skip if I'm in the mood of skipping songs , there're some on my end especially in cartoon KAT-TUN II You where I didn't like some album tracks on there that much such as Splash ...

initally I ALWAYS ALWAYS don't tend to play Yorokobi no Uta a LOT . I don't know for the heck of it cos I don't mind playing the song a lot on my laptop now lmao

solos wise , I always somehow will skip Tanaka's ones as I find his's either a miss or hit for me .

w/o notice ?? - it depends as I kinda have a love hate relationship towards it . Sometimes I like it , sometimes I just cringe if I listened to it

the performance that Kame did in the QoP DVD was well you know :lmfao

& YAY Cliff has gotten for me the Taiwan regular edition of LIPS :luv2 . I hope there will be stock on the Taiwan regular edition of Keep the faith in due time

I wanted to get the Taiwan regular edition of Bokura no Machi de but then I realised the cover's the same for both the normal & 1st press cd only's so I'm not going to get that

Break the Records 4th day sales : 10,569

Total sales so far : 89,677 + 59,350 + 17,603 + 10,569 = 177,199

:weep

I doubt a 200K for a 1st week sales now :( , at most 180K - 190K + :(

you've got another CD single. lucky you. Lol. thanks for the info abt the max no. of post for a thread is 500.

don't worry. the album sales will pick up soon. remember, they have concerts and concert goodies. so probably ppl wont buy the album just yet. now, only time will tell.

anyways, here's the link abt Maru being challenged to do bungee for the concert.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlFeDuX6nwI&feature=related

P/S. watch 4:50 onwards. i really like the part where Kame and the rest decide to do a prank in the hopes of Maru accepting the challenge. but it kinda backfired. Lol. and i love Maru's reaction to the challenge and prank :D.

For Eirynne to update the 1st post with :

I'm getting excited as the date for their Tokyo Dome tour draws nearer <3

....this thread's gonna be done soon. which means i'll need to think of a title. LMAO.

omg DOME CON is sooo close! the special con goods should be revealed soon. and i TOTALLY CANNOT WAIT FOR CON FAN-REPORTS! :D

the DVD is going to be insane. each day has a different opener.

wow.. everybody is so excited for the Dome Con :D:D:D

and i can't wait for the concert DVD to be out eventhough they haven't even start to concert yet. i will surely definitely buy it :luv2.

P/S. to Karen - i'm actually beginning to like Taguchi. Lol.

LMAO yes & new graphics hopefully Eirynne :D

haha the tour hasn't started yet & we already want a DVD on it -_-'''

I hope news on the fact that Kame's supposedly going to wear a Kimono will be true xD :lmfao

:laugh

I don't like his new hairdo now :( . I want him back during the time when Kame went downhill big time last July - Nov lmao

OMG. KAME IN A KIMONO.
idk whether to laugh or cry. but if the performance is good, then i'll disregard the whole...feminine thing going on. Kame is crazy. LMAO.

i'm more interested in Jin's solo. since it's a ~mystery~.

AHAHAHA :roflmao

Tsuyaka reported about that on her LJ & I was going ?!?!?! xD xD xD

I don't know if it's true man

after last year's stick swinging moment ala w/o notice ?? , god knows what kinda crazy antics he will come up his sleeve :mischief :innocent

yeah me too ! especially since it's said that it will be a NEW solo & that he might not perform care

okay, i'll make the new thread now. :)

gfx will be put on hold. i still gotta make them. LOL.
