[Charts & Rankings] 10th Album: NEXT LEVEL - ORICON STYLE

[Tasked]

A complete's first day appears to have been 116,801 copies. So hopefully, NEXT LEVEL can even beat A Complete in the long run

[Tasked]

Compared to some of the latest album to which ppl will want to compare:

x48,129 Dreams come true
x29,433 BoA
x27,213 Utada Hikaru
127,986 Ayumi Hamasaki

I believe these numbers are right..right?

[love in music]

wow. that's really awesome! so happy for her

No, I think that's the index for A COMPLETE... A COMPLETE should have sold at least 170K on the first day (~110000 index x 1.7).

I think sales figure will drop by 2/5 or maybe half tomorrow, but i hope not! =p

[Ayumiko]

It'll be nice if those numbers are real. Second day's numbers will drop like heck though.

I would say the only truly unexpected numbers though are Utada's. Ayu's may be a bit high, but not that much considering the 4 versions.

I wish she had only released two versions of Next Level. 4 makes it difficult to really accurately compare to Guilty.

How so? It's not like these 4 versions include different extras so you have to buy multiple versions of the same release to own everything.

If those sales are real - wow they're good.

Because there will always be hardcore fans that will buy 2 or all 4 versions. Thus 127,000 doesn't accurately reflect the actual amount of people that bought the album. Which just overall will always make it difficult to accurately compare to albums that only have 1 or 2 versions.

[bluegie]

^I agree. the figure can't really reflect how many people bought the album. I just hope that the drop won't be that big tomorrow... Like, at least 50 - 80K for the second day..

As far as I know, the 2ch one should be accurate - that person has posted the accurate sales figures in the past but who knows I guess.

Now I'm seeing some other people posting the 99,200 number on 2ch though and some still posting the other one. hmmm. Not sure which is the correct one. Sorry, should've just waited for the official oricon update.

If the 99,200 one is true though...thats a little too close for comfort with Tohoshinki. Although I will say that 99,200 at least sounds more accurate to me.
