I think they are pretty good overall.

I was also under the assumption that Mika's MUSIC album had done much better than that.

And I just don't get the appeal of Orange Range. I don't think they are anywhere near that good to justify those sales, which makes me think they are the current fad in Japan and thus their numbers will not sustain in the future.(hopefully.)
