NEXT LEVEL - Oricon NINKI Chart

"NEXT LEVEL" tops the Oricon's "Ninki-Chart" in the launch week. In March as a total, "This Is The One" from Utada score the highest numbers. 356 of 400 people asked said they are interested in buying "NEXT LEVEL". The NINKI ratings are the results of a poll conducted by Oricon indicating interest in an upcoming release. Although the ratings are never a true reflection of sales, it does give a strong prediction about where the album will place in terms of popularity amongst the Japanese public.

eww, seems ayu did something right if the public is almost as interested in her as in the next utada release. ah, I really can't wait any longer. T__T

Thanks! Wish it would do as good as A COMPLETE did!!

woah, my story's ninki was THAT low?! o_O. and it ended up selling over 1 mil, amazing, haha~

thanks for the news though :D

Yes, but remember that was 5 years ago. That time the sales figures were higher. It's posetive that Ninki shows a popularity rise for Ayu in the recent years.

This is good news for Ayu, popularity is rising and that means sellings will do too!:P

Yayyy~ go Ayu!!

that's fast in that the NINKI index is up so soon , it's promising no.s , hopefully the no.s will be good for the album

I just realise Koda's releasing on the same day as ayu?

Anyway it's good to see high nikki numbers. Now if only high nikki = high sales

LOL Utada wins haha...o well. NEXT LEVEL is generating lotsa hype...probably because its really something unexpected. No one noes what styles are gonna be put out, what the music is gonna sound like.

Im really excited too. Its great for such a high NINKI. but why is it out NOW?

I hope NEXT LEVEL sells well then!

Yay Ayu! ^^

wow! so they up against each other again this year!!

thanks for the info
i just hope that NEXT LEVEL will get a really well sales

I hope this album will really sell like hot cakes! :D

Great index for both Ayu and Hikki!

I hope the charts are indicative... at least the part where NEXT LEVEL is #1 for it's release week. Maybe Utada's sales will be low enough (and Ayu's high enough) that by the second week, This Is The One will fall.

No more GUILTY incidents, ok?

this is dangerous, i really see sthg very weird, ayu's #1 position is doubtful

awesome i really hope for some high sell #s and heavy promotion

Ayu is not even releasing on the same day as Utada...I think this is a MARCH month NINKI..
