I just think it's silly that they wouldn't just get the actual data for tickets sold. It's literally the same thing as if Oricon ranked singles only based on how many cd's were sent out to stores vs actual sales of the cd's.

While the numbers might be relatively similar, it's not exact. So for a country that likes to rank things so much, I just think it's weird haha.

Though I do remember that (miss)understood was considered a million selling album despite only selling 800,000+ so in some instances I guess they do base it on shipments vs sales.


Anyway it's good to see she's still able to be in this list, and to be so high up if you ignore the groups haha.
Oh, sorry, I didn't get what you meant before haha

Yes, RIAJ certifications consider copies shipped, not copies sold, so many albums/singles end up getting certificates even if they didn't really sell that many copies.
