HEART STATION's Ninki is 352.70!!! Yay. For comparison, Koda Kumi's "Kingdom" had a NINKI of 327.90 and debuted with 421,302. That means Hikki should get at least 450k+ for the first week! Awesome :D

NINKI isn't predicting sales though so it's not really related XD.
I'm glad that hikki will have a #1 yay!

It doesn't predict sales directly, but it does predict popularity. Albums with similar NINKIs often have similar first weeks. So if Kingdom has a little lower NINKI than HEART STATION, HS will probably do better in its first week :luv2 I'm hoping for 475k. I'm sure it'll do better in the long run than Kingdom, though, since that album stopped being promoted less than a week into its release.

Ooooh, nice NINKI results. I hoping for 500K+ her first week. I want Hikki to keep her record.

Amai Yume 15th March 2008 01:04 AM

Score I was right on with my NINKI prediction!!! What's the second position NINKI? Surely Hikki's got the number one but just for curiosity sake.

I'm so excited for HEART STATION!!!!

OMG, she looks GREAT and ADORABLE! Hikki is looking great!! Hopefully there will be some more pics like this in the HEART STATION booklet.

Luv ~Venus~ 15th March 2008 01:31 AM

Those images of her are abosolutely GORGEOUS! DO-YO-THANG-HIKKI! *snap snap snap*

Hanabi_surreal 15th March 2008 01:36 AM

she looks BEAUTIFULL!!! the first photo is amaizing!!! :D

Amai Yume 15th March 2008 07:10 AM

So maybe someone on hikaru.sc has HEART STATION leak and is working on it as we speak. I don't know if it's true or not but maybe a leak will be spreading within the next couple hours.

If you're gonna listen to it (which is not me) then get pumped!

Luv ~Venus~ 15th March 2008 07:19 AM

^ I hope it's not true. I'm tired of the leaks that's been happening lately. What ever happened to people going on a wim with their fave artists? Besides, it's not like it's much to leak anyway. At the most theire getting 4 new songs. I'm not hyped at all about dlding her album. I'm with you Amai! :hi5

Amai Yume 15th March 2008 07:45 AM

100 % agree Luv! Not much new stuff would be coming...

(1) Celebrate (2) Gentle Beast Interlude (3) Niji-iro Bus (4) Prisoner of Love (5) Take 5.
I mean 5 tracks (4 with 1 interlude) is not that much so I'm sure that we can wait until a couple more days until the album is released. Besides if they end up being the best tracks on the album then won't they sound even better when you're listening to the album (after the leak of course).

BTW Luv, that is an awesome set - especially the avatar :)

And on a selfish note, I really want Hikki to pass that million mark (And people say downloads don't affect that much but hey, you never know...)

Luv ~Venus~ 15th March 2008 07:57 AM

^Exactly! :yes I'll be ordering HS in a couple of weeks. I can hold out til then....I'm a strong willed person. lol I wan to hear Celebrate...but listening it on album would such a pleasent experience especially for me since this will be my very first Hikki album. (:shimmy) Omg! Now I'm superhyped about the album. Woot! HEART STATION COMES OUT IN 4 DAYS! Omg! I really hope she sells over 500k her first week. I don't want another one of my fave artists losing their record. DD:

Amai Yume 15th March 2008 08:03 AM

Yes, I NEED a million selling album from one of my fab 4 artists (but Namie won't be releasing an album this year so that leaves 3). Unfortunately Ayu won't be doing that and Kumi's looks in the distance so come on Hikki, you deserve this! You rocked those single tracks and I bet album tracks will be just as good (or better).

And I'm also most looking foward to "Celebrate." With any luck, mine will be here on the 24th!

Luv ~Venus~ 15th March 2008 08:11 AM

:weep Only if I had my debit card. Ugh, god! I can't wait to get it. Spring Break needs to hurry up! :wtf [That's the only time I'll be able to order my debit card and order Hikki's album. I prolly won't get the album tile the secong week of April. DD: I'll be okay though. I'm addicted more to Hikki's older music and that'll keep me satisfied until I get the album. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE PHOTOBOOKLET! Gosh, Hikki is going to look so cute and sexy and laid-back. *screams and goes fangirl* I NEED MY DEBIT CARD, DAMMIT! I AM SO READY TO ORDER MY J-POP AND K-RAP STUFF! I THINK I'M ABOUT TO LOSE IT ALL!

Amai Yume 15th March 2008 08:20 AM

Yeah, I can't wait for HEART STATION. Waiting for PLAY was sooo hard. GUILTY was mega hard and Kingdom was TORTURE. This album though has been pretty easy to wait for. Weird? But I bet I'll be impressed with it cause it's Hikki. Exodus and Ultra Blue are two of my fav albums of ALL TIME (within the top 10) and each other album has its gems (even Precious) so older works can definitely pre-occupy you! Hang in there Luv!

Luv ~Venus~ 15th March 2008 08:25 AM

^L O L! I thought no one on here liked Precious. XD Although the background singers were taking over Hikki's songs, it was good album.

Hey, Amai? Would you mind using one of my new Hikki sets that I made earlier?! I made it knowing full well that I won't be using it. I really it...although I might re-do it. HS desevers some attention around here. So why not promote it through our siggys. It's a set of Kuma and Utada. What do ya say?

Amai Yume 15th March 2008 08:28 AM

Oh yeah, Precious has its gems as well like "Ticket 4 Two" -> so relaxing and enjoyable!! :)

Sure Luv! I would love to use your sig but I've never used a sig before so I don't the mechanics of it...:innocent So if you're willing to help then I would love to use it!

Luv ~Venus~ 15th March 2008 08:32 AM

^ I luv How ya Doin' [both versions] and Lullaby! They are so catchy. lol I spent all last weekend listening to How Ya Doin'. :laugh

Oh, Thankies! I'll PM the set and instructions how to use you siggy/ava. lol

Amai Yume 15th March 2008 08:40 AM

How Ya Doin' was good and when I heard the rap version, I was like WHO IS THIS?!! OMG, hilarious! I also like "Promise" - so pretty!
