[CHARTS + SALES] GUILTY -- ORICON STYLE Thread III

[ayumisrael]

Meanwhile GUILTY still can be #1 weekly for the next week as our friend showed:

1: Ayumi Hamasaki (GUILTY) -> 9,238 + 8,076 (x1.7) = 29,434
#2: Kobukuro (5296) -> 8,987 + 8,222 (x1.7) = 29,255
#3: MISIA (EIGHT WORLD) -> 10,026 (x1.7) = 17,044

I really don't think that MISIA is a problem, kobukuro though are still a problem.
I think MISIA's album will be #3.

[AyuGAME]

sigh..she in number 3 for today...but there is still a hope that she will get number one position this week!!! C'MON japan people buy GUILTY!!!

Those sales of Ayu's GUILTY are better than I expected actually. :0 I thought it will sell less than Secret did on the first week, but it did much better, which is nice. #2 is good position, but I too like to see Ayu on #1. But it's not a end of the world for me if she doesn't get it. It's still good album, one of my favourities, and I never really cared about Secret, but I like it. I like GUILTY more. :> And #3 isn't too bad, I'd say, because if she wasn't in top10, then you should ask "What the heck is going on?".

Ayu's still a big star in Japan and who knows if she someday has a single, that will sell over 400,000 copies? I mean, Utada Hikaru for example sold really horribly with her ULTRA BLUE album singles in 2005-2006, and then Flavor of Life was released and it sold over 600,000 copies (and it's still charting, I think), and Beautiful World/Kiss & Cry sold over 200,000 copies. I believe Ayu might do the same someday. Besides, even if she doesn't, it doesn't matter. Ayu's still Queen of J-pop and always will be.

And about Koda Kumi, I think her singles last year sold much worse than the ones she released in 2006. But I'm surprised how long Black Cherry has been on charts (and I love it btw), that's amazing. :0 Utada Hikaru's ULTRA BLUE has been on charts for months, even after Ayu's (miss)understood stopped selling. :p

// And about that Flavor of Life single, I guess the reason why it sold so much was that it was the main theme of Hana Yori Dango 2. :3 Or something.

No, the sales of GUILTY are over the span of 2 weeks. Secret sold a little under 500k in its first two weeks.

#1: Ayumi Hamasaki (GUILTY) -> 9,238 + 8,076 (x1.7) = 29,434
#2: Kobukuro (5296) -> 8,987 + 8,222 (x1.7) = 29,255
#3: MISIA (EIGHTH WORLD) -> 10,026 (x1.7) = 17,044

[Luv ~Venus~]

I believe Ayu can get the #1 spot this week. So, I gonna be like Kilyk....*crosses fingers*

[Lee_Hamasaki]

I hope guilty will get #1 of course but I don't think, but I think this week guilty will pass 500k (88k this week)

[4ever*ayu]

GUILTY is likely to sell more than 500k this week, that's for sure..
hope it manage to reach the #1 throne this week!
so that ayu can keep on her #1 streak since debut !!

[Teyla]

I hope it will sell better than secret

[sugarbasil]

Wait, so is it officially at #2? Cuz people on here are still saying they have hope for #1...

GUILTY has officially debuted in the #2 spot in the weeklies.

[Lee_Hamasaki]

we're hoping for #1 this week (3rd week)

[4ever*ayu]

*crosses fingers, both hands*

^NOT BOTH HANDS! THE SECOND HAND CANCELS OUT THE GOOD LUCK!

GUILTY's doing pretty well, right?
It's almost close to Secret's sales and it's only been 3 weeks. O.O
