Haha I think because people are worried that a Johnny's group will release on the same day as Ayu's single, which would more than likely bump her out of the top spot.

Their boyish good looks, very catchy songs, appearances in various dramas and TV shows, etc. I'm not all that surprised guys listen to them too; if their music is appealing then why not? As for being one of those crazy fan girls that stalk them...that could be a different story lol.

^ They're good looking? Well, few of them are. If I wanted to stare at a hot guy, I'd buy a poster instead of a single or album. *ahem*

Not that I'm going to... maybe... I may not be able to help myself... this is really tempting ;_;....

You need to save your money for alan. Your helping her career by paying of her material.

that's right , because I did said before that ARASHI was supposedly going up against ayumi in the beginning but looks like it's not true now & OMG 4th March & that's Ohno's solo which he supposedly will sing for his new drama which opens today

if it's true then they will be going up against Koda :O

nobody wants to challenge the supreme power that's of Johnny's ;p

[rakeru]

if Arashi is released March 4, then Rule/Sparkle might not get the kind of longevity that GREEN/Days did. but it still means some good first week sales.

[a_kingdom21]

i guess eventough ayu will go up against arashi.....avex will do anything to keep ayu #1 streak.....just like what they did when MW released.....which suddenly went up multiple times.....

n i dunt really like any JE boyband.....i think they really weired......dancing like they dont have nothing to do....just rely on their face......

since truehappiness has already posted on the fact that ARASHI will now be putting their next double a-side single , then I guess everyone shouldn't be worried about it now

(what happened to KAT-TUN's Tactics ? I thought it's supposed to be out on March 4th ?! Weird)

EDIT - OK it's confirmed via http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/list_from_c...tml?key=253626

LOL arashi can just beat ayu in her second week, then

don't take too much ofense to my post, people. it's honestly all in good fun. as much as i love ayu, people should be worried about her songs sounding good than her #1 streak being broken. but that won't happen, so yea. good luck to ayu.

Anyway their new single will be out on 4th March & it's official - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/list_from_c...tml?key=253626

I'm going to get the CD only , pointless for me to get the other 2 CD + DVDs

[Yum!Fruit_Salad!]

Good. No Johnnys vs. Ayu showdown!

Aww, Yuna, chatmonchy, and Aqua Timez won't be so high chart wise. Yuna really needs all the help she can get.

Thankies again, Karen-chan! ^^,

Shuchishin's different because they're not a Johnny's band & OMG both CD + DVD's of Believe / Kumori Nochi, Kasei already outta print @_@

I swear that the 2nd CD + DVD was outta print after 20 mins of being listed on CDJapan

[Lanz16]

^ I've noticed that.
Why JE was so fast to be out of print.
For example, HEY! SAY! 7's HEY! SAY! single was out of print after 2 or 3 months. :|

I would love to have one because it featured on LOVELY COMPLEX anime 2nd OP theme.
Too bad, its gone...



EDIT:
Back to the main topc; does anyone when the cover of D/G appears?
