It's interesting though how most of the top 10 has at least one million selling item, and the earnings don't seem to be all that much higher. (Except in the case for the top two... and Tohoshinki just released a load of DVDs/CDs in 2009 so I don't think they really count...)

Days/GREEN is considered as 2008 single right?or its counted towards 2009?

^ It's counted as 2009 because the Oricon year starts in mid-December.
@Truehappiness: Yeah, compared to boybands and whatnot they had a lot of releases too. But in terms of other female artists, Ayu did probably have the most releases throughout the year. It's weird because as fans it always seems like she should release more! haha. But really in retrospect, she released a lot of stuff this year. |

Let's see if we can dig up her older earnings from previous years and compare...

^ Compared to her early time it is a light load, but I think its pretty standard for her the last few years though. Like 2008 she had A-Complete, Guilty, 1 single, 2 dvds right? So actually she released more this year than last. Also I'm not sure if Oricon factors in book sales as well. Oricon does have a chart for books, so its possible that the Vivi book got counted this year too.
Namie only had 1 dvd and 1 single, so her total is an extremely high return considering that. Last edited by SunshineSlayer; 20th January 2010 at 02:09 AM. |

I believe they specify that they only count singles/albums/DVDs.
http://ahsforum.com/forum/showthread...=oricon+yearly Dang, she was #2 in 2008 with 7.1 billion yen. I guess A COMPLETE really helped, and the lack of competition from GReeeeN and such. Did B'z get helped this year by Ichibu to Zenbu or what!?

^ haha, for sure it did. B'z also had a concert dvd, album, and another single too. So by B'z recent standards this was kinda a busy release year for them too.
I'm not sure what all Greeen released this year cause I don't really follow them. But Mr. Children I think has the smallest number of releases in the top 10. I believe they just had 1 album and 1 concert DVD counting towards their sales. Namie also only had 1 single and 1 concert DVD, but the sales weren't high enough to make the top 10. What did Ayaka all release this year? I know about her best album but was there anything else? Last edited by SunshineSlayer; 20th January 2010 at 01:34 AM. |

GReeeeN released Shio, Koushou, a few singles, and their best [AB DESUTO?!]... so that's quite a lot. Shio, Koushou was very close to the mllion mark, so... yeah. They released more than they usually do. I think ayaka just had her best album and two singles. The singles didn't do that well, so... I guess the best album was a big part of it. The yen totals overall for earnings this year seem to have been pretty low, but I guess that's a sign of the times. EXILE/Arashi don't count, haha.

ever since the singles went from 4-6 to 2 a year, it seems a little to me. the only thing that keeps it seeming consistent is the albums, because she has been steady.

So they were tied for the number of releases then. Koda's single sales though this year took a huge dive it seems.
