I really don't wanna go this route with you, Peeeeeggggger! So, I gonna be as nice as possible about this: EXILE are very annoooooying now. I don't have a problem with them but the freakin' BEST that's pumping out of their ass has gone way OVERBOARD. It's like If you look up the word BEST in the dictionary, EXILE would be the definition.

As for the Hikki situation, Hikki's #1 2 weeks in a row had already been broken with Distance vs A BEST had begun (No thanks to ayu.......j/k...). That's okay though. Hikki scored #1 5 weeks in a row with SINGLE COLLECTION and #1 6 weeks (non-consecutive) for First Love. I might be sounding biased or w/e but I think Hikki has the most weeks at #1 for a female artist. So, there's really no need for me be to greedy or a "ho", ho! I would rather want a "studio" album to be #1 then a freakin' overrated ass BEST album from the "Kings" of the BEST releasing. The whole concept of that BEST is ridiculous and you know it, ho!

Btw, don't come over to AHS start crap bcoz JPM closed the Hikki thread there, a'ight?!

^I wonder how much Avex is forcing on EXILE. They seem to pimp out certain artists, like Kuu and Tohoshinki (which made me lose interest in them to be honest), I wonder if it's more of Avex's fault.

[ayumisrael]

I think they pimp out whoever they can to bring money.
Erm... I don't think that this EXILE's BEST will sell huge because it's a compilation, it will sell huge because they're a very popular (and a) boyband now, so yeah >_<.

Hikki stayed pretty much the same, Namie is definitely getting the #1.

[TITANIC]

yah..
congratz for namie... hopefully she can stay #1 for this week....

waww... hikki's sales the steadiest

[KarenPang]

awesome

I really hope to see 60s70s80s finally attained the much deserved no.1 spot !

[fanmail]

omgosh, go namie!! but wait, her sales are 3k lower. so she can still get #1?

[criminal]

The sales from the second day of her second week are yet to be publicly announced. Once they're added on, it'll be known for sure if she's #1 or not.
Actually, the sales won't be announced, but it's expected that they're enough to take the top spot. ^___^;

[fanmail]

oh right. omgosh, I hope those sales make her #1, for real. My heart would be so happy for Namie, she truly deserves this! <3

yeah she totally deserved it ! I mean the last time a single of hers went to no.1 was 10 years ago . This will be amazing if she finally manages to claim back another no.1 & it's long overdue I say

x->1->1->1->1->1->1 - Utada Hikaru - 67,698 + 64,284 + 50,958 + 27,386 + 27,990 + 30,965 (x1.7) = 457,778

Darn, Hikki will probably be about 40k short!

[TITANIC]

OMG..
hikki sales too high

[fanmail]

omg so it's certain that namie'll get #1! does it still count as her first #1 since like forever?

[ayu_fan929]

^Yep. If she gets the #1, it will be her 1st #1 in almost 10 years.

[criminal]

That's just amazing. 2 of my 3 favorite artists topping the charts! <3

[Peger]

Hikki sold 480k, Namie's #1 according to sanspo.

[Luv ~Venus~]

^Thankies Peger! Dammit! Hikki was only 20K to getting 500k 1st week. It's okay, it still indicates that Hikki went double platinum her 1st week which is excellente! GO NAMIE! GET DAT #1 SPOT GURL! I'm so happy that two of my fave female artists topped the charts. Congrats to Hikki and Namie!

480k is an awesome first week opener for Hikki. Highest of the year so far! I think by next week she'll definitely beat Guilty and Kingdom's total sales. It may have fallen just short of UB's first week, but I think it's awesome considering the decline of record sales.

[Luv ~Venus~]

^ I wonder how long she can have the highest 1st week sales of the year? If it wasn't Oricon standard of tallying the final sales on the 6th day then Hikki would've scored 500K for sure her first. Like I said earlier, Hikki still scored the double platinum sales of HS this week. I'm interested to see how she will fair next week. *prays that she beats EXILE next week*
