Next Level is doing good!!!
Do they sell her album's at her concerts??
Although it would be weird to go to a Next Level concert without hearing the album yet!! :P

SURREAL__RAINBOW 9th May 2009 03:01 PM

hope it goes a few positions up!! :D

ka♡ri. 9th May 2009 04:23 PM

I'm still so glad this album is in the top positions after so long! :)
At first I was worried about the low sales, but then I remembered that A COMPLETE sold 850k and I was like... :D

Of course Thanks for all the sales updates & positions ranking!n__n

I think this is why we have to take Oricon records with a grain of salt. Not all stores submit their figures there, I think that if we took the "shipped" record (which I think places NL at 450k? - can't remember! :headache) and subtract about 150k (which are stocks in stores across the country - I'm going by music stores here that have between 30 and 50 copies of Top 50 CDs in the store at any given time - how many CD stores are in japan?!?) we could say that's a "good guess" of how many JPN versions have actually been sold world-wide...

^ well RIAJ certified NEXT LEVEL Double Platinum in that 500K copies are shipped out

there're still about 110K lying all over the CD shops in Japan though

marekcarey 10th May 2009 11:10 AM

one spot up today,
if a large amount of new releases comes, it will surely out of top 50 in a day cos the sales are really low considering first 3 spots.

yeah the top 3 albums sales for this week are awful with KAT-TUN's Break the Records taking the #1 spot with it having 200K+ for its 1st week sales which sucks as it's such a fantastic & amazing album & it's my fave album for the 1 1/2 of '09 , Johnny's wise :lmfao

except Yuna Ito & Ken Hirai whom will be releasing their albums at the end of May , I don't know for other 'big' artistes that will put out new releases

pretty high chance for NEXT LEVEL to hover in the top20 for the next few weeks

:yes

Well, I fear for every Wednesday when NEXT LEVEL will slip very low due to new releases. >.<... lol. But honestly though, I think the longevity should last for at least another month (or at least I hope so).

Extremely likely. It would be on display with the concert goods.

if you buy from Amazon Japan & HMV Japan , they're also counted towards Oricon alongside with CDJapan

it's not the case for YesAsia even though I know it's counted towards the charts in Korea lol

oh, sorry, i fofgot about HMV and i didnt list amazon because their shipping is ridicousously high, at least to germany(30€? WTF? Its 3-7€ in other shops)

it's ok & :yes at Amazon Japan

I only used their site if I want to ask my Japanese friend Shuji to get 2nd hand goods for me as they're usually much cheaper for me to afford & I don't mind buying 2nd hand stuff at all
