It's probably because the mu-mo connection now allows people to download in advance, thus less people buying the physical singles. It happened for Tohoshinki too. I don't know about EXILE though.

Whereas Laruku and other bands on different labels had relatively consistent first week sales.
Well, couldn't Avex have just cut down on downloading like instead of letting the whole single be for download but letting one song be for download? That's the solution I prolly would have done but than again I'm not AVEX excutive or manager or whatever. It's like Avex want both things to happen: Good downloading and good physical sales...but that ain't happen no more since consumers have there own mind now! *sigh*

@MemorialAddress08: It'll be okay! Like fanmail said, it'll pass 100k but not in it's 1st week...the same happened to B&D.
