TBH, KAT-TUN will probably get number one next week, but their sales have been sucking so much that they probably won't outsell Arashi in the long run. So it won't be too interesting really...

But if you look at arashi's album sales history even the the one released in April 2008, the sales are platinum standard at best. I don't geddit...
their album sales have really picked up recently. they're getting steadily better. they caught a tough snag for a couple years, but now they're coming out of that slump and in a big way. i think their next album might be able to sell 300-500k maybe? by the way things are going with their singles and their album sale trends, its possible.

but yay ayu. i hope she can sell at least 150k w/ this single
