I would hardly call it nobody giving a hoot haha.. They were just selling SINGLE platinum status-ish, compared to their current million results.

yeah but they also experienced slump sales when they were still in Pony Canyon & when they transferred to JStorm , things got somewhat better

it's only when Hana Yori Dango came along which slowly push their popularity up bit by bit and when they started hosting back to back variety shows of their own which really escalated their popularity significantly

now buying their concert tickets is a 1 in a million chance as I heard prices for them can go up to 10 million yen per ticket in the black market
