today's number isn't bad! :yes but hopefully they'll get a 100k week, at least.

woow at Arashi's sales..
I wonder would they sell 3 million this year like what EXILE did last year

:scry jun won't be in oguri shun's new drama. hiro mizushima will instead :scry i knew i should have gotten my hopes up...

:weep

oh dear T_T

my younger sister's going YAY at the background xD xD because of Hana Kimi 8D

:weep

*sigh* here's to hoping he'll get a new drama in january, at least, lol. but ugh, i'm sooo sad, haha.

LOL

I saw your Twitter message on that , Lisa

so drama you

usually 1st week sales can be really HUGE no.s & then ick

but considering that their chart life & sales have improved a lot since One Love , I think All the BEST ! can linger in the top 10 for a while :D

anyway , scans of them in the latest TV Fan - http://jesychan.livejournal.com/39653.html

ARGH those Nino solo shots are @_@

753k is pretty much awesome. congrats! :D

....& this is going to pass 400k, isn't it. :|

^ eh eventually I guess Eirynne but I'm quite sure ARASHI AROUND ASIA 2008 in TOKYO will be the top selling DVD for 2009

that I will not be surprised

somemore scans of the guys :D

Nino in DIGITAL TV GUIDE 0930 & all except Sakurai & Aiba are featured in TV NAVI 0930 - http://jesychan.livejournal.com/39875.html

*_____*

i don't have a problem with Arashi getting best DVD of the year. i mean, heck, it's their year after all. :)

but i'll just be a bit sour when it passes "KAT-TUN Live Kaizokuban" as best-selling concert DVD. not gonna lie. but i'm sure all you guys will be happy about that, anyway.

to me records come & go . There always will be someone in the future down the line that might top things up from what ARASHI has able to accomplish today

so no I'm not sore on what you said about this

argh I think this means I'm getting old when comes to my thinking mindset or something .___. & I'm only 22 , LOL

I don't think ARASHI AROUND ASIA 2008 in TOKYO will cross 400K anytime soon imo . They need about 15K to overtake KT's KAT-TUN Live Kaizokuban DVD total sales of 400,758

oh i know records pass & go. :yes
can't help being a sour puss though. i know. xD

though, i guess this is will neutralize things since KAT-TUN did take Arashi's debut group single sales record. so Arashi will take KAT-TUN's con DVD record. :laugh

it's a circle. :cool

:laugh

true you have a point there

at least ARASHI got their 'revenge' now of sorts LOL

As expected, the boy band Arashi dominated the charts this past week with their collection "All the BEST! 1999-2009." The album sold 753,000 copies, setting their own personal record for first-week sales.

The album also sets the record for opening week sales during the 2009 period. The previous highest was Mr.Children's "SUPERMARKET FANTASY," which sold 708,000 copies when it was released this past December. That album has already become a million seller, suggesting that Arashi's album will likely achieve that milestone as well. If it does, it will be their first million seller.

Aside from Arashi, the week's top ten included new releases from Big Bang (#3), MINMI (#5), Denki Groove (#6), and Hi-Fi CAMP (#8).

On the singles chart, Kiyoshi Hikawa also set a record. His "Tokimeki no Rumba" sold 68,000 copies to become his third chart-topper, which is the most for a solo enka artist.

TOKIO (#3), Yuko Hara (#5), The Gospellers (#7), Tatsuro Yamashita (#8), and Ayabie (#10) also entered the top ten.
