Thanks for the numbers. I wonder how large Kumi's fan-base is in Japan right now, not that it matters to me just curious. I'm guessing 50 - 60k+ people. Clearly that 99% of the fans bought both inside & outside and W FACE will most likely going to sell about 30k copies each version. Although in today's music world number of physical copies sold doesn't mean anything, I think Kumi is more like Cher & Madonna now. People love her persona & live shows but only buy selected songs or just stream her music. I mean, Avex is releasing so much KLoop merchandise (3rd or 4th plush series, KLoop hats, KLoop pillows, tissue box covers, etc), clearly it sells well. I also read that her LOVE NOTE series are the most popular fragrances produced by a celebrity in Japan. Makes sense, she just celebrated 4th anniversary with a special box and man, LOVE TOUCH body cream smells SO EFFIN' GOOD. I wanna get like 10 more. It sucks I can't import that unisex Eternalux...

Does anyone know the capacity of the halls in Japan where she performing?

oh and W FACE MV will most likely have the same simple packaging DITR & Shhh! had according to that photo.
