I think it's next week and the week after that cause Oricon week starts on Wednesday and the 31st is on a Wednesday, the last day of the year.

yeah that's what i thought too... but then all the 24th releases were out yesterday, so it's weird. Stores in Japan don't close on the x'mas day, and usually only the ones included in the 2 week counting were released earlier..

I don't mind another summer single, as long as it has something like July 1st on it.

congratz Ayu :x:x:x

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year everyone

[rakeru]

^and to you too ^_^

[hiroshi_ben]

Looking at the overall single sales of 2008 at oricon chart..this single is actually doing pretty well..now getting over 15k for a single is already a very good thing for the artist

[jbrat2219]

^ The Taiwanese have more important music to buy lmao j/k

[marekcarey]

its first week in taiwain...she will top it in upcoming weeks...

[darkswordz]

That is only the sales of the japan version if i'm not wrong. When the sales of the taiwan version is taken into account, i'm sure ayu will top the chart

[Gkone01]

Ayu is #4 today

[njanjayrp]

Ayu is #4 today but those Macross releases prolly won't stay on top 3 for too long as their indexes are pretty poor XD So I guess she'll be back in top 3 pretty soon (oh and Stay with me's 1st day is even lower than TABOO's, but at least Ku will most likely have a #1 weekly)

[hi-cko]

Oricon's sales are: 127'650 for the 1st week.

Yay, higher than glitter!

Welcome back, ayu

Kinda LOL and ironic that for this very Chinese single, it didn't even get #1 in Taiwan

It's just the imported Japan-version ranking just now. The overseas version is yet to be released. So that's an awesome rank. The Japan version of Mirrorcle World only managed to get #11 in Taiwan. And glitter/fated got #7.

\*_*/ wow congrats Ayu!

[kawaii otaku]

Ayu is not even in the top 20 weekly airply for Billboard Japan, so in reality Days is not a popular song.

Explain how the heck is it that it's being sold really well digitally then? Billboard sucks, and they obviously have something against Ayu as according to them MW wasn't in top 100 yearly singles which makes no sense. And you can't really judge the popularity of a song only by looking at billboard airplay charts, I mean if you would only look at the Oricon sales or Ringtone ones you could say that Days is in fact very popular. But since neither me nor you are from Japan - we can't say for sure.

I dunno.
Days is always performed in music shows so, is pretty popular ... I guess

and they obviously have something against Ayu

How many times a song is performed on tv has nothing to do with how popular it is. All it means is that is how many shows that the record company was able to get the artist onto.

It's great that Days was number 1 for the week on recochaku. But we really shouldn't say its having high digital sales because we really don't know that. We are only seeing the ranking, not the numbers, so all that we know is she happens to be selling more than what is currently out at the moment. It could be that in the grand scheme of things the sales won't even be in the top 50 for the year or it could be in the top 20 etc etc. We really don't know.
