First day: #9; KinKi Kids (Johnny's) was #1, Berryz Kobo #2 (idols one-two). I'm actually surprised that it was in direct competition with aiko, which got #7, and Sony's (Epic Records) ikimono-gakari, who got #10...wait -

In the nearly-five-year history of miwa, I've seen miwa vs. ayaka (2013, as well as 2012 miwa single on the same day as ayaka's comeback album)...but for the first time ever miwa vs. ikimono-gakari!?!?! Whoa... This 24-year-old guitar girl doing better than a group that are all in their 30s (their vocalist, Kiyoe Yoshioka, turned 30 on February 28/March 1 this year, since she was born on February 29, 1984, and February 29 is the "leap day" of a leap year, and 1984 was a leap year)... I'm pretty surprised that miwa can do better than ikimono-gakari, but even this single, with it's #9 ranking on the first day - it's underrated... (I do agree with Kacku's opinions to back it up)
