[Charts & Rankings] The 6th Oricon Thread of NEXT LEVEL ~Final Spark~

[rakeru]

agreed, i don't care if it gets top 10. the list just demonstrates what is true of every music industry; mindless commercial material will always reign, numbers-wise.

[KarenPang]

I'm not sure how big a threat's for ayaka's new best album especially since there's no much incentive to get her best album (to me)

especially for the 2nd disc which the songs will be chosen by fans & I have a feeling a lot of them will come from her 1st 2 albums @_@

The rest probably will be from the B-sides of her singles but we'll see about that

[ayuinh.k?]

i think arashi could be a big threat..they already sold out on all the first press editions already on cdjapan, yesasia..but i guess we have to wait until it comes out and see how much it sells then..

It has many big hits and she's going on hiatus after the release...of course there is incentive!

GUILTY chart for 17 week and SECRET for 18 week so NEXT LEVEL did better than both ^__^^

[ayumisrael]

Maybe even a 2 million? x_x
10th anniversaries always give extras.

[TITANIC]

both are big threat for ayu.. Ayaka's 1st album sold 1,2 million and 2nd album 620K. her best album probably hit 1 million....
about arashi I have no idea because most of JE album dont sell as well as single eventhough it is Best album

[Meat Pao]

^ I feel apprehensive about ayaka's best album reaching 1 million. Only reason for one to buy it is probably because she's going on a hiatus or for people to perhaps try her music.

[njanjayrp]

Considering that ayaka easily attracts casual listeners, I'd say she has good chances of reaching 1 million and her charting power when it comes to albums is amazing.

As for arashi, well I'd say they will sell over 1 million, but it's hard to be sure, I guess All the BEST will show how popular they are in fact. The fact that their previous compilations sold less than some of their studio albums tells a lot. But we'll see.

I'd say I agree with Ryo on this one

I don't know if All the BEST can reach 2 million o_O

as for the extras , you get a 3rd disc called ARASHI's Selection if you were to buy the limited edition

I can't comment so much about that because this will be the 1st time for me to see the chart action/sales of a Johnny's best album

even I myself have no idea what the last Johnny's best album ie. KinKi Kids's 39 album , fared

I do know that 39 went to #1 but in terms of sales , I really have no idea

[ayumisrael]

The 18th week position was #199.

[KarenPang]

looks like NEXT LEVEL will be lingering around for a few more weeks which's a good thing

[zyoeru]

What number is it when it falls out of the charts?

[TITANIC]

^ the last is 300 and around 400-500 copies sold

[zyoeru]

Okay, cheers.

[Minttulatte]

Now I'm in the WOW state. Totally. I never expected this album to chart so long. But it's ok for me.

[TITANIC]

hopefully by next week when Sunrise/sunset release NL can sell increasely

[TITANIC]

20th week
position : ??
sales 791

total sales : 372,665

20th week finally

[waterballoon]

It's still charting! Woo~

[waterballoon]

Isn't there some ARASHI compilation for their 10 years thingy coming out soon? But wow 2009 is ending soon... in 4 months. Time flies by really quickly, haha.

And TRICK is still selling! I'm amazed!
