For #1 lovers:


But that's not the case for me - anymore. It seems with all kinds of favorite artists in my mind that are releasing this month (Arashi, miwa, Kis-My-Ft2, AKB48's DiVA, Sayuri Sugawara), as well as looking at the lyrics, for me I don't care about the sales...just do well. But literally, I'm actually quite surprised at Acid Black Cherry - the "darkhorse" making the upset in the Oricon album charts when the favorite to get #1 (based on NINKI) was Ayu by almost twice the margin...
