okay. Oricon shows the NEW daily ranking around 3am PST on Wednesday (during winter), so that's Thursday around 8 pm in Japan. Then the website post the actual sales number on Monday around noon (that's Tuesday around 4 to 5am in Japan).
The first day chart shows the "pre-sales" or "pre-release" sales figures. For example, A BEST 2's first day on chart was 2007.02.27 instead of 02.28. Oricon shows the actual sales figures on Monday, so that means the new albums / new singles sales only includes the first six days' sales, while the ones already on the chart have the "extra" Tuesday sales count.. so 7 days' sales (using A BEST 2 as the example, those already on-chart albums during the last week will have 2007.02.26 sales count as well I think).
Did I make anything wrong above..?

Since Distance vs. A BEST era, whenever ayu or hikki has new stuff coming out I will usually stay up late that night...
