miwa had 15,447 on the first day. JUNHO (from 2PM, K-pop group) was #1 with 27,270 (#2 on 7/11 with 5,176).

That being said, the sales numbers have been underwhelming at best. I'm disappointed this is supposed to be miwa's 'best' album and this is missing the mark - by being outperformed by 2PM's JUNHO (making matters worse, 2PM/JUNHO are signed to Epic Records, which is also a Sony label, and is also the same label that Utada is signed to!)...

I was also considering buying hi-res from Recochoku (or mora, which is owned by Sony? But I use Recochoku because I'm more familiar with that), but while the tracklist is the same as the CD (yes, you get every song), I'm not sure if the album is worth the value when the album mainly consists of A-sides, save for three songs at the end (two new songs and a different version of a B-side).
