Can't get over the "OMG WOTA BUY SO MUCH THING" can you? Anyway, that's not a fan. That's a guy in china who gets the CDs and sells them there. Do your research first.

lmao in case you didn't got it, I was joking..
I am not THAT dumb, thanks.

He is OBVIOUSLY a middle man (I believe I've read it on the page as well but for people not understanding japanese it would have been funny to see people's reaction but youobviously just wanna show you're smarter than others great for ya).. like a lot others do, but imagine if like 20 persons did the same 20 x ~6000 copies is already 120k... I've seen a lot of Japanese do that and I even know 2 personally, obviously I know he didn't buy all those for himself lol THAT would be scary.

The limited type-A and type-B editions came with one of two national handshake event tickets, while all four limited and regular A/B editions came with a serial number to vote for a member to participate in AKB48's 22nd single. As well, the theater edition came with an "Everyday, Katyusha" release event handshake ticket and an election campaign picture of one member at random.
Now's everything clear

If Ayu, Koda and Namie released a single together I wonder if it would even come close to those numbers xD

^ They broke it

An Ayu/Koda/Namie release might sell 100-150k first week, I doubt much more than that. Despite what many people may say, I think they have very similar fan-bases. Though I would definitely buy that single.

^ highest 1st week sales for single by Ayu was 550K. not sure it was SEASONS or Evolution but for the album, A BEST was her highest 1st week. A BEST sold 2,8 million copies and 2nd in the world behind Hikki's Distance which sold 3 million

it's funny but I don't know this band at all. I've just listened this song "Everyday, Katusha" and I'm sure I would buy this single if I had a chance to! I don't know why, but they sing so cheerful and in unison, it makes me want to buy it. and I like these nice covers with girls in swimsuits

and also Katusha.) why Katusha??? in Russia it's a girl name and also a title of a super-popular song.

Yup. Every 2 weeks!!! Not just AKB, but other groups too, SKE, SDN.
I went to yesterday show, really happy that after the concert, there's a handshake event too, so yay! We can talk and see them really close!

there's an official shop selling their goodies and the AKB48 cafe will be open soon in Singapore too(japan don't even have this!)

I'm a happy akb48 Singaporean fan! Haha.
