Considering the success of "Checkmate!" and the solidity of this single with diverse sounding songs and tie-ins to a makeup company, a j-drama (I think it's a j-drama, correct me if I'm wrong,), and an anime, I initially thought this single would have had higher sales as well. But if CDJapan is any indication of how well this single is selling, I'm not surprised that the number is a little low. They haven't even sold out of the first press editions of the CD+DVD edition of the single. The only reasonable explanation (from my perspective) that I can come up with is that maybe a lot of people didn't buy it because they think by it being a triple a-side, all the songs may be on the album. So they'd rather wait until the album comes out rather than buy this particular single. Either way, in comparison to the other artists on today's daily ranking on Oricon, these numbers seem to be quite normal (with the exception of SKE48 of course). Hopefully sales will increase throughout the week though and she can at least make it to the number two spot for the week (I would normally say number one but let's be honest, she's not going to outsell SKE48, no one will, lol).

[Rocky Raven]

Yah it's really a terrible number, even lower than Break It/GMB index~
but anyway, Namie's never been a single seller =_=

[JackieRos]

not a good single really

[kayokyokufan]

I was hoping for better but I'll be happy as long as the single ranks somewhere in at least the top 5 for the week.

[adantatu2]

i was expecting higher sales, this single is good, maybe is not better than 60s 70s 80s, but it has tie-ins and good songs

[Kaiouforever]

For the first day, those are pretty good sales, considering a lot of my favorite artists who have been around for a while have single sales that sometimes barely hit 10k.

[chu-lips]

it's ok if it were 29k..
19k
fiuh..

[R_Hikki]

Disappointed but not surprised... Oh well, at least we still have a new album to look forward to.

[Minttulatte]

I'm happy she's releasing new material. Of course it would be good if she sold more, but at least she's active again. I don't really care about her sales that much to be honest.

[chu-lips]

2nd day 16k
yay the drop isnt that much,,
hoping for a steady sales..

[Rocky Raven]

It has almost the same sale with BreakIt 2days total sale~

Break It / NAKED
Tue 23,751 / 19,255
Wed 13,528 / 16,324
Thu 6,706 /
Fri 4,480 /
Sat 4,269 /
Sun 4,999 /
1st week: 58,557 / 35,579+

[y_nathz]

the single is good and it has tie-ins too so I thought it will sell higher.. but since the drop on 2nd day isn't big at all so I think it won't be so much trouble

and yeah, it's only 2k away from BI/GMB 2days total sales, so I guess it's fine

I don't know how true this is..because google translate sucks...but it seems like it came from someone who attended?

Anyway...I'll keep searching for more info!

If it's true, I love that I Will/Tempest are performed back to back

[Rocky Raven]

The show hasn't even opened yet? How could they attend it?
http://www.namiestyle.jp/tour2011/schedule.html
The first show is 7/30 土 静岡 静岡エコパアリーナ 17:00/18:00
Still 3 hours away from now on !

[Not Fade Away]

^Maybe it was someone who was listening outside while she was rehearsing then? I know people find out Ayu's setlists by doing that. I don't know, like I said, Google Translate isn't the best.

Plus I said unconfirmed, so most likely it isn't the actual setlist, but it's interesting none-the-less.

EDIT: Also it's 2:30 pm in Japan right now, I wouldn't be surprised if fans are lining up now...I've actually seen some people that have posted twitter pics of them getting ready to go

[Rocky Raven]

The setlist is not real my friend. We just have to wait.

[Not Fade Away]

^Honestly? It's better than nothing, and this thread was steadily drifting to the bottom of the second page, so at least it got a good bump.

I love speculation, anyway.

Anyone have a cellphone in Japan that wants to gain access to the tour's staff blog? lol I'm curious to hear what's going on.

I know the goods are being bought like crazy cause every time I go to visit the shopping page, it gets backlogged like crazy.

[UHPlus]

The first show only just started 20 minutes ago...

and that rumored setlist is BORING...
