^because chance no junban do not have the regular senbatsu.

Senbatsu is the team of the girls selected to be in the PV/promotions/CD covers...

For chance no junban, the senbatsu is decided by 'scissors/papers/stone', some of the fans aren't too happy with the results that their favorite members aren't in the senbatsu. Most of the senbatsu are just regular members, the most popular ones left in the Chance no junban senbatsu is only Atsuko Maeda 前田敦子, and she's at number 15.

So it's already expected that it won't sell as much as Beginner, but this new single has the senbatsu from Beginner, i think it might end up selling MORE then Beginner.
