Well yeah, the Japan numbers are from Oricon. But I think it's Japan, USA, and UK combined. I doubt The Strokes would have been #2 in Japan.

well the strokes have the us n the uk. i doubt that (miss) understood would have got onto the US billboard charts. (i think thats where they get their sales info from for the US/UK etc.) the "global" chart i think just means, they compare the album sales on a global level. it doesnt mean they have the numbers from overseas countries. ie: (miss) understood sold 654k in japan, that just happened to be the #1 seller in the world at the same time.

Wow! Go Ayu! Not only completely beating out the other albums, but also being the first of the year! I hope that it's a great sign of things to come.

That's unfair. That's 2 week sales, not one, so Ayu shouldn't be number 1 (all the others on the list are only one week sales).

It's Global Charts but that's just the sales from Japan, because MediaTraffic only take information from official charts and Ayu is not in any official chart besides Oricon (other official charts are Japan, Australia, USA and some Europe countries).

She would have still been in first with 400,000 copies though

[Cyria]

That's great!

[myhay]

the picture hasn't been changed for several years..

[Mad_Cactuar]

[Qsenwill]

go go go ayu,hope ayu can keep much longer

[Khanh-Le]

I don't think this is more than one week sales:

number one:

Ayumi Hamasaki - (Miss)understood
Avex Japan - 654.000 - 1 week at No.1 - Hot Shot Debut

number 19:

T.M.Revolution - Under Cover
Epic Records Japan - 88.000 (10 days sales)


I think if hamasaki's sales were from the past ten days it would've said so, like it does after TMRevolutions rank.

So she sold 654 copies in one week? I'm confused now.
