I didn't realise it was open air til I saw the preview

thanks at least now I know where it took place , I still want the DAL tour on a DVD

are those the highest 1st week since "Real Face"? if so, well, damn congrats Arashi!

[KarenPang]

yeah it looks like it Eirynne , at least Seishun Amigo's mentioned on there too alongside with Real Face , the right end corner of the column's the total sales accumulated for each single

I saw the performance of Believe earlier on when I downloaded via http://community.livejournal.com/las...ays/43455.html , great performance

I love the part when Sakurap came on & all of them look fantastic & that goes for MatsuJun (YAY )

[Beauty4123]

yea, it's a miracle that jun actually looked good with that hair for once

speaking of jun, still no info on "smile"?

[Corvina]

Wow, these sales are amazing!

EDIT:
I`m not really into Arashi.
Are their sales always high as that?

[~Inori~]

^Not really. Their debut sales usually range from 100k or 200k to 300k. This is their first single that sold pass the 500k mark in its first week.

no their sales were bad , be it for singles or albums . They only managed to sell like 100K+ initally for each release when they debuted 10 years ago (except for their debut single which almost cracked a million copies in total)

They only started to gather in sales since last year's from Step and Go onwards & from that onwards , they have been getting singles sales from 300K+ onwards

Step and Go's their 1st single since then to sell 300K+ & above (1st week sales onwards) , they weren't able to do so in the past & barely do squat .

Before that , Love so sweet was their 2nd best selling single until truth / Kaze no Mukou e , One Love & of course now Believe / Kumorinochi , Kaisei overtook its place

OMFG GOD ANSWERED MY PRAYERS.

(tenjostyle @ vox)

MY SEXY HOT JUN IS FINALLY BACK OMFG i'm crying right now, LOL.

and kaori, yui aragaki has her koizora hairstyle! i love her with bangs!

[ka♡ri.]

Karen;; lol - their sales weren't BAD nor did they sell SQUAT. They weren't as high as they were today, but plenty of artists would KILL to sell over 100k.

AND OMG! They totally TANNED him like crazy lol. I like his hair from what I can see.

[Beauty4123]

i totally didn't recognize his tan, i was focusing on the hair, lol. it's not too tanned, right? i don't want him to look bad with a tan when he FINALLY gets a new haircut

[ka♡ri.]

well - he has to be tanned! he has to be half filipino and filipinos are darker.

[Beauty4123]

i suppose your right, kaori. oh well, i'm just happy for the fact that he changed his hair, so everything's all good, LOL.

[ll moments ll]

YUPPP, Filipinos are tan as hell. but i guess the upside is that i'm tan in every season. like...i honestly don't fade in winter. xD

cute haircut though! i likey.

sorry Kaori but it's just a figure of speech on my part . I apologise if somehow I offended you in 1 way or another

I don't know if it's a natural tan on MatsuJun's part , if not I blame it on too much fake tan spray

Believe / KNK's official sales figures - 501,988

Source - http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/w/

so it's 12 copies lower than 502K as what Lisa posted a few posts back lol but it's still awesome

Arashi makes Japan forget that it's in a recession? - http://community.livejournal.com/arashi_on/1470141.html

so it's their 2nd best selling 1st week sales figures attained since A.RA.SHI , great

[arisu_1love]

Those first week sales are amazing, I'm so happy for them!!!

[Corvina]

Thanks Karen for explaining.
So their sales were always quite good, but since last year sale numbers explode like that?
I`m impressed, Japan truly loves Arashi.
