They have few of the best selling singles this year and are going to have the best selling album of the year, 2nd year in a row, that's just amazing. x_X

Did it happen with B'z or Mr.Children or SMAP or GLAY (or other acts if you want to mention bands/singers) in japan's history?

(Excluding ayu and hikki of course)
Yeah, that's pretty much what I was saying. Their overall sales numbers aren't as high as some of the older acts, but that is a reflection of the times of overall lower sales in general. However, no other artist has ever man handled the Oricon yearly charts like they have now for three years in a row.
