If these are correct, WOW at EXILE. Also, nice second week numbers for Hikki.

1->4->2->1->1->1 - Namie Amuro - 1,677 + ? + 3,339 + 2,895 + 2,661 + 2,814 + 4,027 (x1.75) = 30,473
x->1->1->2->2->3 - 20th Century - 8,116 + 4,773 + 2,546 + 1,377 +1,334 + 3,040 (x1.75) = 37,075

Looks like Namie will just miss getting the weekly #1.

Are you really surprised though? EXILE is a sales juggernaut right now, although I doubt it will last long. And plus Hikki's in her second week.

well i'm not really surprised that EXILE's popularity in recent times have become up there but what's I'm surprised's how well the 1st week sales of their 1st Best album for the year been selling .

I wonder can they replicate the same success with regards to the other 2 best albums that they're gonna release later on this year
