Congrats to Namie!! Considering how much the other female soloist are selling, this is an amazing feat for the first day sales! Hoping for at least 300,000 copies sales ^^
|
That's a great number! Almost outselling Kuu + ayu overall sales in one day omg :laugh
Does anyone has the daily numbers for the last album as a comparison? |
Feel 111,458 (first day sales)
|
Good sales but not amazing, FEEL and Ballada sold more than 100k on the first day, still its just the first day.
|
30k less than FEEL but still great sales.
|
yeah, it is lower than FEEL and Ballada sales, but you cannot compete with yourself forever. She is outselling all the others japanese divas in the first day! Thats amazing!
|
There was a lot more hype for Feel and Ballada is a compilation album ;)
|
Slay namie... !!
|
Congrats Namie...
I know that the first day sales will slay Ayu and Koda total album sales. She is IN right now. Also I know that the sales will be less than FEEL. I found myself liking this album much more than FEEL...I just like Hands On Me from that album and most of the songs there are not listenable to me. But from this album, I like more than 4 songs and the rest of album are listenable to me. |
Her sales are also droping like everyone else, but her sales were so great to begin with that she's still slaying :D
|
_genic isn't an amazing album so the sales are justified.
|
Week 1
Day 2 Position: #1 Sales: 32,094 Total Sales: 113,585 |
Queen Namie Amuro
|
But isn't this kinda huge drop...I mean she's going to sell less than Kana Nishino did with LOVE ö__ö... and she's Amuro Namie for christ sake :D
|
Good numbers, that's nice for her :)
|
Day 3
Position: #1 Sales: 15,198 Total: 128,783 |
Pretty awesome! I bought two copies at tsutaya shibuya on Tuesday! :D
|
It's almost important to consider that this is high for a primarily English record, and she did not put any of the tracks from BRIGHTER DAY or TSUKI on here. Overall, I'm happy for her for the sales.
I think first week will be no more than 160k and it will likely top out below 250k. At least she will have 12 consecutive platinum albums. And this will be her 9th #1 studio album. :D |
Day 4
Position: #1 Sales: 9,866 Total: 138,649 |
Well, it was expected. Her sales now are similar to Ayu's during the Love songs/FIVE era. It will probably reach 200-250k on the long run.
|
I guess she is not gonna released an album without preview singles now lmao.

Does this mean Namie's party queen is next? :O Edit: what is that lil emoticon at the top of my post. Méss. |
I still dont know why she is doing mostly english... but the sales are pretty good. Feel seemed to have so much more hype, but I was also in japan at the time so that might have had soemthing to do with it.

Her sales are still very good in general, however I'm actually surprised she is dropping that much. I never thought the drop from FEEL would be that big. If namie is lucky she might outsell Taylor Swift's 1989 in Japan (220,000+). If _genic will have a huge longevity though it just might get close to ayu's Love songs or even Rock'n'Roll Circus sales. It depends on like the 3-4 first weeks and eventually the longevity. |
^ hopefully, but sales are dropping like a cannon. After this namie will rethink an English album in the future.
|
Queen's gonna need her next Best Fiction era real soon. (This album is giving me Style teas in terms of sales and even concept to a degree) Then we need QOHP 2017.
But in the end 90s00s10s is coming. |

Here is a comparison from JPC of her past albums!
PAST Check Uncontrol FEEL Ballada _genic ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Tue 112,213 *93,168 104,562 111,458 104,052 *81,491 We *77,306 *48,489 *58,859 *50,057 *48,969 *32,094 Thu *41,826 *31,280 *31,200 *27,443 *29,119 *15,198 Fri *28,336 *26,503 *25,231 *19,294 *20,840 * 9.866 Sat *25,509 *21,369 *26,403 *19,196 *23,233 Sun *25,133 *21,060 *25,782 *16,925 *26,443 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Estim 310,323 241,869 272,037 244,373 252,656 *138,649 Week 330,742 252,889 292,098 247,689 254,944 Total 575,501 487,921 539,585 392,092 447,576 4th day 9,866k (138,649k total) Yeah it is quite the drop, especially with the fourth day being below 10k. |
Actually I'm pretty disappointed and also expecting this. But when I look at those numbers and other female soloists' numbers, it's still freaking awesome!!
|
Day 5
Position: #2 Sales: 10,075 Total: 148,724 |
I expected the drop but I also consider it to be quite big... she'll be lucky to pass feel's first week with _genic's total but I think it's possible
Either way she's still the top female selling artist in Japan but now it's more than evident her flame is running out but it's to be expected and tbh she sustained place at the top for a great number of years since she had that second breakthrough (2008) I think Kana has a chance of being at the top now... she's really consistent and her digital sales are amazing |
that's funny that people think that Amuro is the best selling female singer in Japan since 2008 while this is false she is at the top only since 2011 ... just saying ^^
I'm really surprised by this drop I didn't expected it to be that big !! Although there are no tie-in she is still promoted like hell on Japanese TV, magazines, radio, all around tokyo etc... well it's still good sales but yeah this is a decline compared to her past album probably her worst since "Style" (2003) ! |

And what ? The top selling singer is not determinate only by the album ranking ... Look at the data of the fiscal year sales in the past decade and you will see (in regard to female singers) : 1995: Oguro Maki 1996: Namie Amuro 1997: Namie Amuro 1998: Matsutōya yumi 1999 : Utada Hikaru 2000 : Ayumi Hamasaki 2001 : Ayumi Hamasaki 2002: Utada Hikaru 2003 : Ayumi Hamasaki 2004: Utada Hikaru 2005 : Kumi Koda 2006: Kumi Koda 2007: Kumi Koda 2008 : Ayumi Hamasaki 2009 : Ayumi Hamasaki 2010 : Ayumi Hamasaki 2011 : Namie Amuro 2012 : Namie Amuro 2013 : Namie Amuro 2014 : Namie Amuro Original with grossing sales in yen : 1995年 大黒摩季(99.4億円) 1996年 安室奈美恵(184.0億円) 1997年 安室奈美恵(113.9億円) 1998年 松任谷由実 (109.9億円) 1999年 宇多田ヒカル(281.2億円) 2000年 浜崎あゆみ (217.5億円) 2001年 浜崎あゆみ (243.7億円) 2002年 宇多田ヒカル(133.4億円) 2003年 浜崎あゆみ (105.2億円) 2004年 宇多田ヒカル (86.6億円) 2005年 倖田來未 (76.3億円) 2006年 倖田來未 (127.0億円) 2007年 倖田來未 (73.5億円) 2008年 浜崎あゆみ(71.8億円) 2009年 浜崎あゆみ (34.3億円) 2010年 浜崎あゆみ (28.3億円) 2011年 安室奈美恵(31.9億円) 2012年 安室奈美恵(32.1億円) 2013年 安室奈美恵(36.3億円) 2014年 安室奈美恵(29.3億円) |
Makes since. 2008 was Utada's last Japanese Album. Namie's had practically no competition since then. The field has been hers to reign.
She's been babysitting it for Utada though, ya'll. |
Quote:
Yearly Chart: 3. "to LOVE" - Nishino Kana : (645,417) 6. "PAST<FUTURE" - Amuro Namie : (574,525) 18. "BEST~third universe~ & 8th AL 'UNIVERSE' " - Koda Kumi : (371,590) 20. "Utada Hikaru SINGLE COLLECTION Vol.2" - Utada Hikaru : (334,348) 21. "Rock'n'Roll Circus" - Hamasaki Ayumi : (318,454) |
Hikki did go on to eventually sell around 440k though.
But damn. I feel like I shouldn't live in a world where her singles collection is only ranked above RnRC...smh. If Hikki came back with poor sales, I would give up on understanding the public tastes completely. |

I'm talking about an ORIGINAL Album. Because truth be told if Utada releases an ORIGINAL Album right now. This would happen: http://i.imgur.com/MUJ3KVF.gif |
If Utada returns, I don.t think she.ll sell more than 300,000 - 400,000 with a studio album. You have to remember that 2008 was 7 years ago. And IF she returns.
|
I don't think she'll sell 1 million either.........

Lol! _genic sales went up again on day 6!!
Day 6 Position: #2 Sales: 10,362 Total: 159,086 |

|
If Hikki ever comes back she better come with a great song with a huge tie in otherwise I don't think she would cause too much of a stir
She's been out of the game for too long now, people probably have moved on from her |
^
I think Hikki has a lot of loyal fans in Japan but her break is really long and the new generation may not be aware of who she is or how big she was in the past ... |
Quote:
They probably have heard of her and know one or two songs but that's it |
But hikki's past fans, league of grandmassins can really make her popular. Look at Mr. Children and SMAP (even though these are boy bands).
|
Isn't this namie's thread?? why all the talk about hikki. Is she back?? Otherwise everything is just speculation. Namie released an ok album with ok sales..This only means Namie can't relax on her throne or she'll face everybody else's fate.
|
_genic sold over 160,000 copies in its first week. Not too shabby!

But she's been MIA for like what? 5 years now? And there's no hint whatsover that she's coming back from her hiatus anytime soon I don't think she even cares tbh lol |

I love that gif. :P Speaking of Namie's numbers though... was I right?! OR WAS I FREAKIN' RIGHT?! Damn. I'm getting good at this numbers prediction thing. Which is awesome because I have been working for years on a music industry sim that better reflects real world sales progression. |
Week 1
Position: #1 Sales: 160,474 |
^ not bad at all, go namie.
|
kana's with LOVE sold 252,991 already, I wonder if it comes to the point where kana and namie are starting to be sales rivals (if namie will reach it). It depends how front loaded namie's sales became and her longevity.
Even though kana still slays digitally. |
The queen of lots of pop styles vs the queen of basic pop. A true reverse warholian expedition.
Anyways the album is out of the top 5 today. |
Quote:
with LOVE's first week was 100k and ended up with 250k, thats more than a 150% increase |
I'm a bit surprised with the drop, I never really expected that it would be that huge. Anyways, I like the album but it kind of feels generic for me, it didn't slay as much as FEEL.
I wonder if it would be a different scenario if the songs from her TSUKI single are included... |
|
^let's pray together
2nd week Position: #5 Sales: 29,474 |
oh my, 2nd week is over and it still didn't reach 200k? The drop in her sales is greater than I though, I never though I would have to hope for it to outsell STYLE :(
|
The tour at the end of the year will help the album I think. But I'm suprised too, end number maybe 220k?

Rise up _genic rise this is the beginning!! (I did my part praying, yall better do it too) |
Week 3
Position: #6 Sales: 14,509 Total: 204,457 |
^ 200k!! Now let's pray for 250k!!
|
Praying for at least 250k which i think is possible in the long run. Longetivity!
|
I guess 230k is reasonable
|
The thread hasn't been updated in a week. Is _genic over/is it gonna be Namie's "Party Queen"/is her next album gonna be her "LOVE again" etc?
|
Week 4
Position: #9 Sales: 9,123 Total: 213,580 |
Quote:
|
I like how namie already changed her website promo picture to LIVEGENIC. She does not care to promote _genic. Oh well namie loves to go on tours. :yes
Quote:
|
ok, it'll likely outsell STYLE, so _genic won't become her worst selling album, but I'm not even sure if it can reach 250k...

Does anyone think these sales will end the mostly engrish albums streak? Namie stuck with the hip-pop sojnd despite Styles sales back in the day so im curious to see what willbe released next. |
Week 6
Position: #24 Sales: 3,750 Total: 223,130 |
Go Namie go!!
|
The album was a bit generic a f tbh but those sale counts aren't good.
|
Compared to the rest of the divas, Namie is still doing fine i feel.
|
I think only Kana can beat her.
|
Quote:
|
To all the people that mention that she is doing better than other jdivas.
Well I don't think that it says anything since the other jdivas don't sell like her for some years already, it's like saying that namie doesn't sell like artists that sell 50,000 per album. People that say that the drop is big is compared to her own past albums and that she is getting closer to lower sales with each release (which happens normally since more people will keep losing interest in Namie until some point) like happened with the other Jdivas. Unfortunately Namie is not an exception. If she decreases slowly like ayu did for example, it's good enough for her. The only competition she has now is kana nishino. No other jpop divas. |
Kana is still popping out monster digital hits and I don't think this trend will stop anytime soon...
Her new album will probably outsell _genic. |
Week 7
Position: #29 Sales: 2,813 Total: 225,943 |
Go namie!!

Week 8
Position: #44 Sales: 2,019 Total: 227,962 |
