Also, I wish everyone would quit blaming boy bands because "insert your favorite artist here" isn't doing as well as you want them to. Boy bands are not a fad in Japan. They are not a new thing. They did not come out of nowhere or something. Boybands have always been huge in Japan and will continue to be - they do not receive the same negative stigma here that many other countries apply to them.

yeah it's annoying to play the blaming finger game at the end of the day , nobody wins & people will bound to get pissed over nothing
as each year goes by , physical CD sales are getting from bad to worst . So nobody's spared from this 'curse'
Also , Johnny's do not sell well when comes to albums . It has been like that all the norm . Even KinKi Kids's J album's total sales are almost in the same vein as Rock'n'Roll Circus's 1st week sales or something like that , it's that bad
Singles sales they can nail it but they barely do squat for albums . ARASHI's All the BEST ! was an exception with it being a best album & all
I'm curious to see how their future 9th album's going to fare (that's when it will be out D: D: )

Anyway, back on topic XD. It'd be great if her sales could stay steady for a while.

oh ....
I'm quite a new BENI fan even up to now so thanks for telling me about it . Mou Nidoto & KISS KISS KISS are nice but yeah those tanked terribly on Oricon
