i'm puzzled. Oricon said that the first week sales for 'BEST FICTION' is 681,000 but if u add up the 7 days sales of BEST FICTION, it's more than that?

Amuro Namie - 109,287 + 77,477 + 50,607 + 46,343 + 47,011 + 59,929 + 20,035 = 410,689 (x1.7) = 698,171??

[Meat Pao]

^ Because the first week for Oricon is 6 days.

I wish BEST FICTION will already pass the milllion!
It will take a few weeks but it will do it eventually.
BF has some really amazing songs (the new songs, 60s 70s 80s, SO CRAZY, WANT ME, WANT ME, ALARM, GIRL TALK etc. )

[AyuHamasaki01]

I wonder for how many weeks BF will chart.

You read my mind! I was thinking the exact same thing.

My realistic guess is gonna be 3 weeks at no.1.

Wow, EXILE is right behind her.

[TITANIC]

yep.. and all 3 EXILE's album in top 10 >.<

Hmm tokunaga sounds not familiar

[Celaphorce]

This is amazing, AND she got best FIRST week sales for this year currently, I'm like in utter shock!, and I think I peed my pants...

[Alessia_Tateno]

Tokunaga Hideaki is a great seller especially with his VOCALIST Albums...last year he released VOCALIST 3 and his previous albums VOCALIST 1 and 2 that released years ago came back to the Oricon TOP 30! Namie cant surely beat him when he is on his first week and she is on her third week =P

[UHPlus]

WOW O_O She totally killed hikki's HEART STATION first week sales!!! That's a surprise!

[Celaphorce]

So as far as performances go, is she going to schedule any tv performances for DMM or Sexy Girl?

[kayokyokufan]

I'm blown away. I can't believe that she outsold EXILE's album. I thought their sales were crazy. I'm so glad to see that people are falling back in love with Namie.

[futureLOVE]

wait wait wait....she sold this much with basically no TV promotion???

how big of a difference would it have made if she had performed the two new songs?

She actually had a lot of television promotion, just not the standard music programs. But honestly the mainstream TV promos are a lot more useful than the music shows (honestly no one watches those except Music Station).
