[Charts & Rankings] Oricon Thread ~The 12th Thread~

[KarenPang]

Exactly & she doesn't even promote her past remix albums in the 1st place

Don't see why she should do that as she should focus on KODA KUMI LIVE TOUR 2013 ~JAPONESQUE~ instead & avex should not waste their resources to promote Driving Hit's 5 :x

I rather avex promote & over***** her tour as if there's no tomorrow LOL

[Delicious n Bold]

I need a new globe album

[TeamAyu2004]

oh man, I would die for that!

[brener]

omg, the sales are ridiculous this week, the top album sold less than 9k and it's his debut week... >>"

Wow BOΦWY still got it after all these years :O

And ARASHI's crossed 845K within 3 weeks , www . Totally deserve such high sales (this time round)

[Delicious n Bold]

a slow sales week. ..

where's maaya's album? did she flop too?

[emi♡]

Pretty good for T-ara's single though. Beat out the Kyary. Does she sell well? I thought she was more popular.

[Bigtop]

Except for HKT48, last week's slow...now it's Kis-My-Ft2's turn to sweep the Oricon! Well, at least for now, but let's see if this is going to hold up for the whole week...

===

Wow next week's just really ... weak ?

Will be interesting to see who will get #1 , singles wise . Will it be EXILE PRIDE or Takahashi Minami ?

[Bigtop]

I'm predicting that EXILE will most likely take #1. Dir en grey has got some potential for #1 in the albums chart, but the only release that I'm most interested is LiSA...

[brener]

what a poor week...

[emi♡]

omg LiSA is still alive?
