575???? How do they really calculate the NINKI chart?? I mean, only 400 people are surveyed each time (with 100 people each in four generations; and 50 people from both genders). I always thought the maximum point an artist can get is 400 (which is rarely, cuz I think the highest I've seen is about 375 or 380).. Now I'm confused how Arashi's new album can exceed that range in that chart. I guess my assumption about the highest point is wrong then

I guess the consistency shows the size of the real hardcore fanbase. Of course, since there're multiple versions so we can't really tell how many fans there buying one version only, and how many buy more than one versions of the cd. I assume we can safely say that the momosu have a fanbase that can make them selling over 40K on the first week.
For ayu, I guess her fanbase can get her around 70K on the first week at least, and she may have a better reception to the casual listeners providing sometimes she can sell over 100K on the first week. Again I could be wrong tho
