What is wrong with the Japanese People? These Numbers are good, don't get me wrong but i expected more ... :

I didn't think it will sell more than 50k for its first day, so this is a lot.
On another note, Ningyo might be my favourite song from the album.

Well true. 89K actually isn't that bad nowadays. Too bad EXILE released a day ahead

I hope EXILE's sales will drop to 10K tomorrow. Then hikki may have chance.

I'm gonna wait for my physical copy to arrive before I listen to the album but I read the translation to the song with KOHH and now I'm depressed lol such a dark song. I plan on listening to the album in the dark alone with no distractions. BRING ON THE SADNESS GODTADA

Maybe I just read live tweets with hash tags Fantôme too much. Those live tweets gave me false hope that this album could get 100K on the first day lol.

compared to most female solo artists who didn't even reach 80.000 overall with an album, she did pretty well!
so i expect something around 130-150.000 at the end the week

listen to this album on repeat since yesterday and loving this more and more...
i'm working with heavily handicapped people and even they loved this album lmao

This seriously needs to be stated somebody wonders why the sales are so low.

Her last original material was in 2008, not counting TiTO or the best of album. She's doing really well considering she was on hiatus. We'll just have to wait and see regarding day 2 sales.

She has reached #7 on US Itunes.
I was not expecting this AT ALL.
Spoiler:

It has all 5 star reviews and Michi seems to be the most popular here.

Even Ningyo is growing on me. Listen to it on a quiet night. It's magical.

I think the numbers are really good! Maybe she won't get the #1 just because EXILE have 1 extra day of sales. And I'm impressed she's #20 in iTunes Brasil! Congrats to her, the album is amazing. <3

I still have to get used to a couple of tracks, but they're all golden. I find that the albums flows pretty nicely too, definitely one of her best records to date. Also, it took me long enough but I can finally appreciate the beauty in Sakura Nagashi. Such an emotional and powerful song to close the album!
