Don't be jealous!

you're just mad that you didn't opened it first! lol! you never update them so take it easy! :D

Luv ~Venus~ 8th January 2008 03:29 AM

I don't mind this one! The other thread is filled with confusion. Everyone is saying that Guilty got #1 but others are saying that she got #2. URRRRGH!

Thanks for explaing the sales...and POSITIONS!!!!

inspire_rmx 8th January 2008 03:37 AM

The sales is better than i expected..=) so mayb tis album will do better than SECRET and (miss)understood, even thou she lost her No.1 streak, just by a little

babamon 8th January 2008 03:39 AM

It got no.2.. Now that we know her sales is about 432,000 actually it ain't that bad :)

KuroixShiroi_Namida 8th January 2008 03:45 AM

Thanks for the info ;)!

This one is a bit more understandable ehehe..

Kouichi 8th January 2008 03:51 AM

Sorry if i sound mad, that was no my intention

Luv ~Venus~ 8th January 2008 03:57 AM

LOL! You did nothing wrong. I was wondering that too but when I saw why he did I understoood why...so, you know. lol

I don't really think GUILTY has the chance to beat (m)u, but maybe Secret. But with little chances.

Jwiz 8th January 2008 04:05 AM

it's commendable to start a new thread..agree with what Luv ~Venus~ had said about the older thread...and so GUILTY got # 2..

あゆ小差の2位…8作連続首位なるか

 左耳の聴力を失ったことを明かし、動向が注目される浜崎あゆみのアルバム「GUILTY」は2位を記録。 コブクロの「5296」におよばなかった。

 今回のオリコンチャートの集計期間は昨年12月24日から今月6日。昨年12月19日発売の「5296」 に対し、「GUILTY」は元日発売。“ハンデ”があったものの、売り上げは「5296」の45万5000 枚に迫る43万2000枚だった。

 オリジナルアルバムに限ると、浜崎は1作目の「A Song for ××」(99年1月)から前作「S ecret」(06年11月)まで8作連続で首位を獲得。次回21日付のチャートで記録更新がなるかが注目 される。

 会員制のファンクラブサイトで4日、左耳の聴力を失ったことを報告。突然の告白に7日、インターネットの 掲示板は話題騒然となった。「歌えるの?」「引退しないで」など心配する声も目立ち、所属するエイベックス にもファンや関係者から問い合わせが相次ぎ対応に追われた。

 浜崎の左耳の状態については「聴力を完全に失ったわけではないと思います」と説明する関係者もおり、今後 も浜崎本人の言動が注目される。

But from this sentence, talking about wether Ayu can break the record, need to wait for the update on 21/1?

Does it mean Ayu still have chance to get #1?

ayu DIOR 8th January 2008 04:14 AM

Where does it say that she got number 2? I thought the charts came up on 1/9/08? Did she really get number 2? Way to start her 10th anniversary :thud

Oh well even Madonna and Mariah Carey don't have number one streak on their albums :innocent

polka-dot-jewel 8th January 2008 04:27 AM

Why hasn't Oricon updated their charts? It's well into the day over there, and their album weekly's haven't updated at all.

CHAS_AYU 8th January 2008 04:38 AM

Weekly sales counts on two-week?

They update their site slower than they give out numbers to paying members.

Tasked 8th January 2008 07:58 AM

yes... Oricon counts GUILTY 2 weeks as 1.. so isn't GUILTY still a #1-album, considering it was #1 for its 'first week', even though it wasn't #1 for it's 'first plus second week'? I mean it went like this right:
Week 1: Guilty won
Week 2: The other one won
Week 1+2: The other one won again

if it were any other week in the year, Ayu'd be counted as a #1, right? So why not now? Just b'cos oricon didn't update its site with Week 1?

AyUmIXx 8th January 2008 08:03 AM

i just saw the oricon ranking ayu's GUILTY is now number 3~

bluegie 8th January 2008 08:04 AM

Oricon never separates the first two weeks sales in Jan (at least since I am... era, which I have been aware of).

And actually I think GUILTY's second week sales is higher than Secret's second week.. Rite?

sugarbasil 8th January 2008 08:25 AM

Ok, can someone tell me when the last day of the 2 week period is?

CHAS_AYU 8th January 2008 10:09 AM

Yeah! Ayu got #1 today!

Raleigh 8th January 2008 10:55 AM

Wow these numbers are insanely close..

ayu_ready? 8th January 2008 11:10 AM

not bad! hope they'll grow :D

AyuGAME 8th January 2008 11:12 AM

YAY!!! she's back to number one..hopefully she can get number one position for this week...
seriously...c'mon japanese people buy this amazing album...and she can keep her number one streak...
i think there is no competition for this week right?

Not~Yet 8th January 2008 11:20 AM

Whoa that sounds better! :yes Not bad numbers at all, I thought it was going wayy lower because of earlier speculations..

truehappiness 8th January 2008 11:31 AM

MISIA is releasing this week. Here's hoping that she doesn't sell 100k+ XD

ayumisrael 8th January 2008 11:39 AM

ayu got back to #1 today?? wow!
Maybe can we ask for a long chart run? XD
A BEST 2 had longer than usual so GUILTY can as well ^-^".

So GUILTY is -officially- #1 or #2? I didn't get it.

truehappiness 8th January 2008 11:43 AM

GUILTY is officially #2 weekly.

But right now on the dailies, she's no.1 but followed VERY closely by Kobukuro. They're so annoying! PLEASE STOP SELLING FOR ONE WEEK. XD

somethinglost 8th January 2008 11:43 AM

MISIA only sold 70K first week with her last album, but she was releasing against Mika Nakashima. I think Ayu will get atleast 90K this week. :D

Dark_hated 8th January 2008 11:49 AM

i don't think ayu will sell more than 60 k this week... :(

KuroixShiroi_Namida 8th January 2008 11:51 AM

BoBo 8th January 2008 11:53 AM

Mai Kuraki ranked at #14 with 62,662 sold. She's doomed lol

Anyway, i didn't realized sales thread #3 had already been created before... so i'll quote myself just in case someone missed this from thread #2.

Zemus 8th January 2008 12:03 PM

It will be tough if it is gonna take #1 this week. I assume it will need to sell close to 100k copies or something. Maybe, there is small possibility :)
Kobukuro is dangerous though...

TITANIC 8th January 2008 01:32 PM

kobukuro has realesed 5296 3 weeks ago.. so i'm sure guilty's sales will be better :D

if we compare about the singles, misia's singles sold not good in album 8 world than ascension

ascension's singles
LUV PARADE/Color of Life : 24,410 Copies Sold #16
SEA OF DREAMS~Tokyo DisneySea 5th Anniversary Theme Song~ : 30,921 Copies Sold #13

eight world singles

ayumisrael 8th January 2008 01:35 PM

MISIA's last album Ascension sold 127,768 copies, I don't think she'll even debut on the top 2/3/5 :| (the album charted 10 weeks.....).

Is she really even a threat?

I think the only real threat are kobukuro again.

Her last album sold 127,768 in total... how come she can even debut on top 3 (With the new album tomrrow)? Unless her sales will go way up from the last album...

I thought she was a real threat but if she'll have such sales again so I really don't think so.

TITANIC 8th January 2008 01:42 PM

everything sold 1,8million copies.. and her debut album mother father brother sister had sold more than 2,5million and the her best seller album...

maybe people get boring with her music... :D

Foxxy_Fuyumi 8th January 2008 02:19 PM

I think this is today:

#1: Ayumi Hamasaki (GUILTY) - 9,238 (x1.7) = 15,705
#2: Kobukuro (5296) - 8,987 (x1.7) = 15,278
#3: EXILE (EXILE LOVE) - 7,185 (x1.7) = 12,215

yeah..
those chart for today..but weekly chart ayu has lost to be 1st in oricon chart

krishna 8th January 2008 02:35 PM

According to Tetsuki @ JPM forum, Ascencion sold 73k on its first week.So, I'm assuming that MISIA's new album will sold around 60-70k in its first week. If I'm not mistaken, Secret 3rd week sales was around 50k. If GUILTY sales is more stable than Secret, ayu may have chance to get #1 next week.

Yeah... and MISIA's album is most likely to sell lower in total and first week (unless there is something special about the album or her general sales or popularity went up since last year).

IMO, ayu has advantage from her deafness thing news.Press starts to expose her deafness on TV and newspaper. It's kinda "promotion" for ayu/GUILTY (although in a bad & sad way:()

icy_iven 8th January 2008 03:34 PM

i don't think ayu's GUILTY will get no. 1 anymore! Let's just admit that she's no. 2. but it's ok! she's still queen of japan!

criminal 8th January 2008 03:35 PM

I would LOL SO HARD if GUILTY would manage to hit #1 in its third week. It'll be like the A BEST 2 -BLACK- we never had. :P

The sales are fine, considering how mediocre the singles did.

The sales are fine, considering how mediocre the singles did.

LOL yep.
GUILTY might be an A BEST 2 -BLACK- make up lol.

elepop 8th January 2008 03:38 PM

I think it's gonna be a fight between Ayu, Kobukuro and EXILE, until Koda releases "Kingdom". I don't see other big album release that are huge for the next 2 weeks. Unless Tohoshiki ends up selling a lot. I'm not really sure if they are popular in Japan. I guess they are a little.

Ayu should have released her album this week or next week. Her #1 position would be 100% secured.

criminal 8th January 2008 03:40 PM

Really? I'd also LOL SO HARD if no other albums would make an appearance in the daily top 3.

ayumisrael 8th January 2008 03:42 PM

CHEMISTRY's album will be released on the same day with Kingdom too though I don't know how big they are.

Lee_Hamasaki 8th January 2008 03:43 PM

the only threat are only kobukuro again. :/ anyway gz ayu for #1 today

I'm not sure of all the releases out on the next few weeks before Koda's album, but the biggest artist I know is Tohoshinki. And they sold like 26,686 copies on the first week for their latest album.

tohoshinki are maybe a threat for misono =P if she had her album on the same day with them... or is she a threat to them? lol...

AyuGAME 8th January 2008 04:02 PM

chemistry has lost their fame too...their sales has become so bad
ayu is really great to maintain her carier better than other artist that debut in the same era as her...look at misia, mai kuraki, chemistry, ami suzuki, aiuchi rina...their sales has become so bad

Halla 8th January 2008 04:03 PM

MISIA only sells a fraction of what she used to sell. kinda shame really, but her music just has changed to really bland and she has lost her fanbase.

I think MISIA still holds a record that Ayu hasn't beaten & most likely ever will. MISIA has the best selling japanese remix album "MISIA remix 2000 Little Tokyo".

Kuu can outsell Chemistry, even if Kindgom ends up selling only half of the amount Black Cherry sold.

Jwiz 8th January 2008 04:59 PM

Kingdom's sales will not be as high as BC but still it has a high chance of having above-than-average sales..

hmm and i think GUILTY will most probably outsell Secret.

Ayumiko 8th January 2008 05:09 PM

for some reason I think kingdom will sell well...and might end up more than black cherry...I used to predict it ending up selling around (m)u...but seeing how all the 2008 albums are doing so well, it might sell better than expected. Plus look at the content!

*Petit* 8th January 2008 06:55 PM

Let's just pary ayu's wota will help her to number one this week! Can't she schedual a surprise "deaf" signing or something?

:love

Raleigh 8th January 2008 06:59 PM

I'm still surprised that avex didn't take advantage of this yet since they tend to take advantage of every situation. I mean they made a whole show about misono's supposed overweight problem.

namiie 8th January 2008 07:24 PM

^ Yeah, I thought it was weird too. I thought for sure they would move Ayu's album to be released when she wasn't going up against such music industry heavyweights such as Kobukuro. Oh well, at least Ayu is still doing amazingly for a solo artist. I wonder whom Koda Kumi will face with Kingdom...

criminal 8th January 2008 07:32 PM

Well, that's something you can get out of if you have enough discipline. Ayumi's situation is different from that, there's nothing she or anyone else, for that matter, can do about it.

ayuayu798 8th January 2008 08:28 PM

Thanks for the info ^^

nightlightyear 8th January 2008 09:08 PM

Whapuddesjdhtuyf HUH?? :thud

Well there's (another) ZARD best (although I don't think it will do that well) and Bank Band next week (side project/band of Mr. Children's lead singer)

4ever*ayu 8th January 2008 09:28 PM

How did you guys know for sure that GUILTY got #2?
I just check on Oricon, and i see no GUILTY on the weekly chart yet!!?

ayu_fan929 8th January 2008 09:31 PM

^Oricon subscribers.

4ever*ayu 8th January 2008 09:54 PM

ok then, thx..

Although not maintain #1 streak, #2 is still so much better than other lower position!!
Congrats to ayu!!

NOOOOOO! That means she doesn't have her....record anymore! :weep Why no luv for Mai! Her music is great. All the other dogs are getting killed by the new ones! :weep

bluegie 8th January 2008 11:08 PM

Well Mai's music isn't that great compared to her earliest music. I listened to her music before, but she's the least innovative singer compared to ayu, hikki, ai-chan, etc.

Dustie 8th January 2008 11:18 PM

It's really annoying they don't update their site while they give out the number so early - what's the point of 'trying to keep it secret from non-subscribers' (least that's how I understand their 'intention'), when the numbers are pretty much all over the online press?...

bluegie 8th January 2008 11:33 PM

Well I think they do. Usually oricon posts the highlights of the weekly chart on Tuesday, then update the charts on Wednesday.

Here's the highlight news they posted yesterday: http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/rankmusic/51020/

MISIA has not lost her fans or gone bland. Her new album is gearing up to be among her best work, actually. What happened is that MISIA stopped promoting her music and pandering to what her label wanted. She has moved away from her formulaic R&B and focused more on making what pleases her. Her concert tours still record among the highest ticket sales in the country and she has a very dedicated fan-base. :D

I'm not surprised. Her album was B-O-R-I-N-G.

octocoffee 9th January 2008 01:35 AM

Hm...lost one record...out of countless... Fsh, whatever. AYU ROCKS! Now all I'm hoping is that it outsells Secret and stays sort of consistent.

futureLOVE 9th January 2008 01:37 AM

i think these sales are really promising....we should realize that Ayu would have gotten #1 had they just counted one week...then she would've fallen to #2 and now, she's at 1 again...i like the way it looks.

erin1m 9th January 2008 03:05 AM

Oricon weekly rankings have been updated. Just as we knew, #2.

http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/ja/w/

Neil 9th January 2008 03:24 AM

I wonder if Ayu will get #1 this week!?
It's very doubtful, she has been #3 for a few days now, (until today). And her albums do have a tendancy to... drop rather rapidly these days.

Peger 9th January 2008 03:27 AM

The deaf thing really helped her sales Monday and she's still making gains on the digital charts today. There's a slim chance she'll be #1 this week.

Queen Bee 9th January 2008 03:49 AM

I personally don't care much for sales or rankings if I like the album and I LOVE GUILTY so coming in #2 is okay with me.

namiie 9th January 2008 03:52 AM

Hmm, well, #2 is not bad after all...I hope it goes on to sell steadily though and not just totally plummet week after week and stop selling period like Secret. Kobukuro's amazing, yeah, but I just recently noticed how well EXILE is doing with EXILE Love as well. 1,200,000 copies in less than a month?! Holy moly. Wish Ayu had that kind of gusto...

norain 9th January 2008 05:16 AM

Yay! Ayumi #1 daily..if no album releases this week, she might make a miracle happen...in another world.!

In the end, if this album sells a million, that beats getting a #1 album. So I hope for a million.

sugarbasil 9th January 2008 05:19 AM

O_o Why did her daily sales just jump to #1 suddenly? (and on the day AFTER the "week" ended)
