the numbers should be up in 2-3 hrs, the single is already selling so I don't see why would we have to wait? The New Year holidays only start in 2 days :)

ok gr8 thanks for the info
I'll be checking back in a few hours then

^ some people over at jpm are saying that Oricon is on a break atm :( and that there seemingly is no double week this year, so I guess we might not get the numbers today, which would suck...

There is double week for this year. Oricon has announced that. the double weeks are this week and next week.

oricon is not updating, but you can still find the sales somewhere else ;)

wait.. I missed something.. why is it released on Tuesday and not Wednesday? o.O

Because the release date is 29th (Tuesday), and as usual cds are on sale a day before the release date (in this case, You were.../BALLAD would been on the shelves on Monday).

Yes I suspected that the double week starts today.
Thank you all for the info.

If oricon doesn't update then hopefully sales will come an in 2-3 hours from now. ^^
I will update if they will (from natsu style).

^I guess avex wanted to emphasis that it will be in stores from yesterday since it's a double week.

Instead of having 13 days that it will have 14.

thanx for the info.can't wait to know the numbers for the first day ^

Still nothing?:( That sucks.

Yeah, natsu style's blogger didn't update yet... let's hope he will do so soon. ^^

He updates every day in random hours so it's hard to tell.

ayumisrael, do you might know the first day sales for other Ayu's singles & albums?^^

^ I think there was a thread on jpm with all the first day sales and patterns. Hopefully the first day sales of You were.../BALLAD will be close to those of Days/GREEN.

I hope the sales for the first day will be up to 45k+
