Arashi's best album clinches the weekly #1 for 2 consecutive weeks for the first time in their history

On the other hand, on the album rankings, this week, the album which set a record for the highest 2009 initial sales of 753,000 copies, Arashi's 2-CD best album 「All the BEST! 1999-2009」, sold 233,000 copies and clinched the #1 spot for the second week running. To Arashi, this is the first time an album has stayed in the #1 spot for two consecutive weeks. Total sales are at 986,000, and breaking a million copies is just a matter of time.

For comparison's sake , Mr. Children's SUPERMARKET FANTASY sold 170,000 in its 2nd week

[miroro]

poor ohno, he cried so hard (don't worry oh-chan, i'm here for you lol)
oh my gawd, we have to make a 1 million party!! i can smeel the million, and you? lol

BTW, i hope arashi will beat Mr.Children in the end, i don't like them u.u

[Namie♡TOP SECRET]

Yeah, I will party all day if ARASHI sell a million. An even bigger party if Mr. Children's stupid Supermarket Fantasy gets knocked off the #1 album of the year by ARASHI's 5×10. I've perosnalised my ALL the BEST ! so that it includes Evrything and the solo song.

[KarenPang]

well the figures for All the BEST ! for today will be out on Oricon soon in about 1 to 1 1/2 hours's time at my end , I can't wait

I'm definitely sure it will be more than 19K+ today . If so , then the magical million mark has been achieved <3

mmm even though I support ARASHI & etc , I have a feeling that All the BEST ! might not be able to defeat Mr. Children's SUPERMARKET FANTASY total sales of 1,236,414 since it has been still selling/charting since last Dec when it was released

& also it's already Sept & it's quite impossible for the guys to clear more than 236K+ & above to overtake SUPERMARKET FANTASY

doesn't matter to me so much because All the BEST ! has already broken so many records for ARASHI & it performed waay better than I can ever imagine

& f.y.i , Mr. Children's not named the 2nd best selling Japanese act of all time for nothing so

[ll moments ll]

why all the Mr.Children down-talk? they're legends in J-music & "SUPERMARKET FANTASY" is a stellar album, imo.

but anyway, much congratulations to Arashi! they're going to pass the million-marker much faster than i expected. heck they're selling much better than i expected. lol. i want my copy though, but i'll be getting it when the OS is released. :3

[KarenPang]

yeah Karma will bite you back in the butt for slamming artistes that you don't listen to

That's what I feel . If I don't listen to an artiste , I WILL NOT SLAM THEM , you will bound to make people pissed just like ll moments ll

The Taiwan presses for All the BEST ! will be out this Fri aka on Maru's 26th birthday whereas for YesAsia's case , on the 10th but you & the rest will be getting them soon eventually

well maybe other portions of Mr.Children's discography might be suitable for your liking

for me I like Hanabi . My younger sister sometimes play their tunes on her handphone & it's good stuff , I like

[ll moments ll]

i don't mind...it's just opinions after all.
but i will admit i didn't like Misuchiru at first because i thought they didnt live off the hype, but when you really get into them, they're fantastic.

"Shounen" is amazing. i love "Fake" & "HANABI" too. & "Sign"!!

which Maru...Nakamaru? LOL.
BUT WAT. I WANT MY ALL THE BEST! ASAP. darn you YesAsia.

[KarenPang]

yeah HANABI is pretty ace . I'm just a casual listener so far of Mr.Children but if they release something great in future , then it will probably convert me haha

Maru - yes Nakamaru xD xD

You know it's weird that HMV HK is already selling the OS press / 2 CDs edition of All the BEST ! on their site already since the OS press /3 CDs edition is also sold out on their site just like the Japan press's - http://www.hmv.com.hk/product/japanese.asp?sku=747555

which's SO weird O_O because avex Taiwan listed the album will be not out til Fri in Taiwan but yet .___.

[miroro]

^ that's so strange @_@ lol

------------
5x10 : 1 -> 17,415

[KarenPang]

1->1->1->1->1->1->1 -- 28,045 + 33,696 +35,564 + 31,947 + 30, 685 + 35,324 + 32,221 + 17,415 = 244,897

[miroro]

[Namie♡TOP SECRET]

SOOOOOOOOOO CLOSE!
Oh well, there's always tomorrow

[Aga-chan]

The concert news clip was great. I want to see the concert. They sounded like they were mostly singing live. And aren't the costumes rather normal for Johnny's? lol
Aw, Ri-da-. It was really moving. ;_;

Didn't think they would drop below 20k, but good nonetheless. Yay, for 1 million copies. ^^

[miroro]

AGG!! i'm soooo so so angry right now ¬_¬
(this story is just stupid.. so it goes in spoiler xD)

Spoiler:

so i'm in another forum about jmusic, and someone posted new BoA's song. I said i think they were pretty bad and i didn't like it. And other member (used to be my friend but not now) who nows i love arashi and he loves BoA said: "well, i'm not gonna say what is SHI* 'couse 980,912 would hate me"
And i was like @_@ 'couse he was referring to Arashi (and he used to like them!!)
so i'm pretty annoyed! Don't know why, but it hurt me saying arashi was that!.
End of the story lol

ahh.. my ALL THE BEST arrived! i have to take it this afternoon!
