Best sales? I think she's getting more popular than ever...! Hearing a possible top five...? (for the first time ever among miwa singles!?)

Day 0 : #4 4,398 (released early coz' of Obon festival)
Day 1 : #3 7,129 (total : 11,527)
Day 2 : #5 4,658 (total : 16,185)
Day 3 : #6 2,363 (total : 18,548)
Day 4 : #3 2,930 (total : 21,478)
Day 5 : #4 2,363 (total : 23,841)
Day 6 : ?
Weekly : ?

so far, miwa's already got #4 until now. Well, just in day 2, she's already OVERSOLD Kataomoi which is her best selling single that sold 15,634 weekly.

Feel not satificated with the sales? Don't worry, miwa's hikari e topped chaku uta + chaku uta full and digital download on many many many charts like rechocoku, dwango and music.jp.

Hikari e is a hit ♥ I've been playing it all day long, I kinda feel sad not getting the cd+dvd while it was still available :( I'll try to grab the regular whenever I can ♥

Hikari e is her best selling single so far, position doesn't count though.

Anyway, still happy for this! Congratulations girl!
She really becomes more popular after this single.

^thanks, she sounds nice, but YUI's voice fits the song better IMO

Just want to remind anyone here, miwa MAGiC forum is celebrating their 1st anniversary and to celebrate, miwa MAGiC staff will be awarding one lucky winner a Regular Edition version of any miwa single CD of your choice, if you're interested, GO HERE.

For the DVD release, I can see it coming, but the "bonus track" kinda make me curious.

^ I hope not that limited edition come with encore, and regular edition not having it. Well, since the successful BOOM of hikari e, I think sorny wants to milk potentially new fans with that limited-limited-thingy.

just some very late info I got recently, lol.

miwa message
"先日高校サッカーの予選試合を実際に観戦させてもらいました。
3年生は負けたら引退の試合だそうで、最後の最後まであきらめないでボールを追いかけるひたむきな姿に
本当に心を打たれました。グランドに立つ選手だけでなく、監督やマネージャー、試合の応援に集まった同級生たち、
そんな選手の努力を間近で見てきた人たちみんながそのグランドに想いを込めている熱さを強く感じたので、
応援してきたみんなの目線で曲が書けたらいいなと思いました。"

about the song itself
"試合終了のホイッスルと同時にうなだれて号泣する敗戦の選手を見て「これで終わり」じゃなくて
「ここからがスタートなんだ」って伝えたいと思いました。勝ち負けに関係なく、高校生活という限られた期間に、
みんながひとつの目標に向かって頑張ってきた時間がかけがえのないもので、試合には負けたかもしれないけど
大切な宝物を手に入れたんだからって。

誇りを持って「これからまた新しい一歩を踏み出そう」って気持ちになれるような、背中を押すような曲になって
くれたらいいなと思います。"

It seems Apple and Sony Music Entertainment Japan have reached an agreement. All SME, if not, most artists are now available on iTunes.

Yes, that includes our dear miwa
So if you have access to a Japanese iTunes card or a Japanese credit card, now you can purchase your tunes digitally here.
Otherwise, iTunes serves as a great place to listen to songs that are not physically released yet, but available in digital format.

miwa's iTunes Japan page

And with miwa now available on iTunes, I'm hearing recent reports that even on iTunes today, after three months out, they're #1...I just can't believe the overwhelming popularity of "Hikari e"!

the first picture is so cute!! I really like her with longer hair <3

yay!! new song !!
To be honest, with her recent popularity with Hikari e, i thought she could release something sooner

Oh yeah, I forgot she's doing a new song...I can't wait for it as well! (But I have a feeling that's going to come in 2013, based on the fact that she has to be quite busy with the "39 tour" and COUNTDOWN JAPAN 2012-13...

Funny...I heard this clip on Weibo and this Chinese show's theme song completely copied Hikari e
