^ That's embaressing...

DDD I mentioned it was losing steam, people agreed. This one guy posted something negative but no-one really cared, some guy said he thought Thelma would end up like Yuna Ito which I agree with and one more person mentioned she sings very differently in her other songs, which is very true, and the conversation moved on. I swear you were mentioned too. :P

^Yeah, I deleted my post cuz I looked back at it and it wasn't what I had remembered.

It doesn't matter anyway, I'm over it. Let's stop bickering and agree to disagree bcz I still want to think of you as a cool guy like I did 1/2 an hour ago.

:laugh okay..

Okkkk, I don't know what people are talking about with me and Thelma. BTW, I'm a guy lol.

Anywayy, I hope Kuu doesn't drop too much throughout the course of the week and takes the number one spot!

I'd be so happy if HEART STATION could overtake EXILE and become the #3 album of the year. I know it's not likely, but dreams are dreams.

I agree and stuff, but, you know, Flavor Of Life was heard EVERY WEEK, but with aiko's new song, you go in the theatre, hear it, leave and that's it. D: Kinda worrying, actually.

True dat. It's just like GReeeeN's Ai Uta in 2007. :O

Things are looking quite okay now... Tohoshinki is the only possible threat, but with the Final tie-in, aiko has a pretty good shot right about now.

She's just ~pure and innocent~. We need to have those kinds of artists well, not just some flexible ladies that keep on showing us how to work a pole, you know? :P


Oh & lols. I just now found out what all this KissHug talk is about. :O o___o What a strange title... Though it's cool that people are liking aiko now and talking about her! :yes

kumi had a HUGE drop today X_X" and MOON is #3...

Yes! :shimmy~~~

WHAT??????????
it dropped very huge

They all did :P Kumi's was slightly bigger. As I expected it would be. After the whole huge incident I really didn't expect her single to get #1, but she's still doing very nice.

WOW?! koda sales? what happened? its dropping a lot...
and its really weird that uverworld sell a lot, from what i know, their single sell badly

ditto :yes

to me One Love's really good , be it song & PV . At least PV wise it's waaay more fun/better than Step and Go -_-

LMAO..I guess Japs still have some dignity left ^^ I guess MOON's index was high due to many pre-orders from the outside of Japan ^^. Now it's selling as it was suposed to XD

The dignity of yesterday comes from her japanese hardcore fans and today as well just that she lost a lot of them it seems.

I thought usually 1st day sales are supposed to be high ?

it will seem a bit off if 1st day sales ain't supposed to be like that innit ?

but usually the 2nd days drops aren't so big (looking at GLAY's drop).
The first 2 days (and most of the 1st week) are mainly fans bursing to buy and some casual listeners also.

yes I know what you mean I have a feeling the sales for MOON are gonna plumment in days to come

yeah XD I guess there aren't that many of them left. Still it outsold VIVID in it's first day t.t

AH! lame-o!!
HUGE drop for Kumi but then again, big big drop for everyone. I would love it if Kumi could somehow climb back again to the number 3 spot by staying roughly at these index numbers for the rest of the week.
This better not be another BoA where she just keeps dropping for the rest of the week...

i was shocked that YUKI still has many fans in japan... or am i outdated??



i was really really surprised, where is ayu's asia tour DVD? while namie and kuu's is still charting... :weep for ayu :cry

i need to go find & download that Himuro Kyosuke album (mostly for his version of KAT-TUN's "Keep the faith" XD). i'm glad he's #1 though! he's an awesome guy. :)

whoa~ at Kuu's drop! but, i didn't like the single that much so...eh. haha.

C'MON UVERWORLD! I hope they can overtake Kuu :D

I'm cheering them on. :D

I think that Ayu's Tours dont sell so well...because she tours TOO MUCH!. She has her regular tour per year + CDL and those concert dvds are not cheap!

UVERworld's drop wasn't so big, so i guess if they keep up like that, they won't have the problem beating her, if she continues to get 1/2 or less each day

For the record (so no Kuu stans kill me), I like her, but I'm actually a pretty big UVERworld fan, that's why I want them to beat her. Nothing against Kuu at all ;)

Thanks for saying that dddaiyamondo!
Come on Kuu!!! You can do it!!!!

I have nothing against Ku XD I like her and I am ok with most of her songs XD I just can't stand to see a bunch of songs that I mostly consider floppy sell well ^^

I understand njanjayrp
It's all up to opinion, personally I hope Kuu gets at least the number 2 spot weekly but hey, that's okay if you don't.

Yeah, she has a stable fanbase! Her singles tend to sell 40k on average and her latest album, a greatest hits collection, has sold over 360k.

^YUKI is awesome... she and aiko are true icons :D

I wouldn't mind if she does ~la la~

Wow I didn't think Kuu's sales would drop that much x_x

NOO Ai XD she's out of the top 50 already XP ~!

that's great to know congrats :love

I hope that at least MOON will sell 100,000 on its first week.
I'm surprised by how low it does.
As it's a double a-side with 2 more b-sides I thought it would do WAY better...

GLAY will take the #1 for this week.

Well unless it gets at least 6 k each day the next four days, it won't reach 100 k in it's first week. I guess it will sell around 80~85 this week.

it's out from top 30 weekly so it stop charting

Totally. There's so much substance to their music, it's amazing! They're both really unique as well, both vocally and appearance-wise.

HA!
Knew it, Kuu got the number 2 spot and I must say I'm surprised to see Uverworld drop to 4.
Although it's sad to see the sales drop by 1/2 again. I hope she can pull off 100K in her first sales somehow...

Unless her index mysteriously jumps back to 10 k, and doesn't drop much, she could do it, if it continues to drop/stays the same, it's not gonna happen. sorry

I'm so sad about UVERworld! Oh well.

Good job to POL for jumpin to #14, and HS to sliding up to #16!

I know the chances are against her but maybe performances will help :)
And it's the total sales that matter so hopefully she'll reach 150K total and that will be a good start :)

we will see weekend sales, then we can know whether koda can reach 100k or not

I'm sure Moon's sales will increase on the weekend and plus there's a few performances left. I was surprised by the first day's sales as it was higher than freaky's (I believe?) and it dropped so much...which I was also surprised at.

yeah 1st day = higher than FREAKY
2nd day = lower than BUT :(

But things will pick up over the weekend and I'll be happy :)

- OMG, Kumi is soooo close to the number one spot daily! I wouldn't be surprised if she takes it for the next two days.
- okkkk, don't see the 100K mark now but hopefully she'll take 150K total!

This is getting interesting Ku is so close to GLAY.

is it true for the top 3 singles/albums when comes to daily Oricon updates , they're only reflected , sales wise ?

cos I don't see the rest of the chart being reflected with sales & all

I think I understand what you're asking... Yeah, only the top 3 singles and albums come with sales indicators on the daily Oricon charts.

hmm, i hope MOON can sell at least 75K in first week

yes that's what I'm trying to derive at -_-

thanks for that :D

I think that combined on the next two days it will sell around 15,000
so the first week sales will be like 85,000 to 90,000 something like that.

hoaa, at least highest female 1st week sales female still ayu ^_____^

yeah ^^
as for MOON, i think It'll sell less than 90 k in it's first week :)

SINGLES
x->1->1->1->1->3 - Glay - 26,436 + 13,897 + 5,005 + 3,559 + 2,720 (x1.75) = 90,320

x->3->3->2->2->2 - Offspring - 7,085 + 6,439 + 3,250 + 3,812 + 3,249 (x1.7) = 40,520


It seems that the weekend didn't help kumi much =\.

Tomorrow is the last week's day so kumi lost the chance to reach 90,000 first week I suppose...

GLAY dropped to #3 and Greeeen are #1. GLAY will be #1 this week and MOON #2 that's for sure.

looks like Glay will be no.1 after all

how about T.M.Revolution & Anna Tsuchiya's positions ?

God Moon's sales are getting worse and worse every day XD If this keeps up the question is will it ever sell more than 100 k.

thanks for the info,ayumisrael..
GReeeeN sales are awesome.. :(

Well had GreeeeN not been there, Kuu would've got a number 1 daily
80K first week isn't sooo bad
I think it'll definitely pass 100K, but 150K is starting to seem far away :(
Yeesh, she didn't even rise on the weekend, that sucks, maybe tomorrow will pick up :)

-yeah it's wiki but it's better than nothing...

BUT / Aishou 63,692 130,890
FREAKY 108,349 195,322
Ai no Uta 65,276 134,831
LAST ANGEL 57,310 89,620
anytime 44,051 53,819

I think total, "MOON" will sell somewhere between "BUT" and "Ai no Uta". Sad.

Also, YAY! HEART STATION is finally back in the top 10 :D

Hmm I can see how the sales are so low. Kuu's summer single is a pretty big deal and MOON is way worse than FREAKY. Oh well hopefully her follow up is great.

NINKI is out! Go Tegomass power!!!

Holy crap B'z....

^:cry Wahhh, GO SEAMO AND BUMP!!!

thanks AY

!! at B'z NINKI index O_O . I'm surprised that after so many years they're still so popular in Japan . Well then again it's no big joke since they're the biggest selling act/duo in their home country so yup

hope the NINKI index for Tegomass will be accurate of sorts as I really like their new single :love

Will B'z every lose popularity? woooow :dead2

not sure but from the looks of things , not likely anytime soon

It'll be interesting to see how well they sell. They only did 292k last year and that was in December too, that's a big difference to me compared to the 800k they opened with 5 years before that. They're still popular though, no doubt, but I was expecting this to open with a little above 200k only.

Ohhhh, hahahaha, I thought you were talking about Tegomass for a moment and I was like WHAT?!
hehehe, silly me
I'm hoping they can break 150K with this single :)

Ugh, and BUMP's last album opened with 381,446. But the B'z album is a BEST, and the BUMP album is just a b-side collection :( BUMP's last CD was released the same day as Kobukuro's, I don't want a repeat of them getting blocked from the #1 position.

yaiiy.. tegomasss should be the first

yeah + you know how the Japanese has a thing for BEST albums especially with B'z capability in putting out their 5th BEST album .

They have another BEST album that's going to be released on 17th Sept called B'z The Best "ULTRA Treasure"

Oh that explains it, I was wondering how they got a new studio album out in 6 months :laugh That's sort of annoying...I hope Bump gets #1 but b-side collections aren't very popular in Japan, compared to bests which are super-duper popular typically. I'm almost positive B'z will reach #1 no doubt, but the question is with how much. I'll predict 350k. Their last one released less than 3 years ago sold 762,000 first week.

Sales are in! Single sales are up a lot today!

I knew it, MOON first week sales will be around 85,000 to 95,000 XD.

GLAY gets the #1 for this week.

*nods head*

+ it's not often a B side collection's put out on a regular basis too , it's interesting to see how BUMP OF CHICKEN will fare when that happens

woooww.. it couldnot reach 90K for first week

Not that her singles usually pass 90 k in their first week ^^

Her summer and double a-side or+ singles pass it =P

^Yeah, two years ago her summer single passed 200k in its first week. What happened :shrug

Well at least she got a nice rise from the previous day!
As to not selling 200K first week, Kuu's true era is over unfortunately so we're not gonna see those stellar sales. Plus 4 Hot Wave was a 4-A Side and promoted that way unlike MOON.

exactly what I was saying, most of her singles didn't sell more than 100k in the first week, but only a few

Anyone have predictions for total sales for this single? I think 125k.

Im gonna say at the most 140K but that's kinda stretching it. I think somewhere between 130K and 140K but I would soooo love 150K :(

I think it's gonna sell like Ai no Uta in the long run. :yes

Hmm my guess is 135k o_o.

Yeah, I think it'll sell somewhere between BUT and Ai no Uta.

at least it will definitely sell & suppress the sales of LAST ANGEL & anytime

not sure for chart life though

i agree ^^ 125~130 k.

I hope it can spend 4 weeks in the top 10...although I don't see that happening. Would be nice though...

Go Tegomass!!!!

Which sucks though because I loved LAST ANGEL :laugh

lol

I hated LAST ANGEL when I 1st heard it but as time goes by I like it

TOHOSHINKI's solo take on the song's :S , Koda should have been the 1 who got the solo take on the song , not TOHOSHINKI

Yay Hikki!!!!
She got 14 for the week so now she's at 935K!!!
Ouch Crystal Kay...

thanks for the update AY

wow at Ken Hirai's FAKIN' POP position . He's still in the top 100 in the album chart :O I'm amazed ...

YAY at T.M.R's reasonance , no.4's not bad considering he has been MIA for 3 years now

:( at Anna Tsuchiya's Crazy World . Oddly , it's the same overall position as cocoon :(

Go kumi!!!
It's kinda wierd seeing her selling less than 100,000 for such a single...
The sales are good even though!
