That's the thing . You're basically answering yourself with another question that I don't have the answers for

I do like Perfume a bit, as well as some Johnny's groups (but not SMAP, the one facing against Perfume this time), just to be honest, but I just don't know why we are in a world like this...

For the record , SMAP is not named as the best selling Johnny's of all time (at this point still) for nothing . They're still going very strong from 1991 until now

Japan still supports them even up to now . I don't listen to them but I wouldn't deny just how much of an influence they've set for their younger counterparts

I also focus on Sayuri Sugawara and Yanawaraba, but unlike the past few years, they have not been doing well on the charts position-wise, but yes, I do like them.

There're tons of artistes who have not been selling/charting/doing well on Oricon , not just Sayuri Sugawara and Yanawaraba

I just don't know why I'm complaining about the BIGGER acts (such as Johnny's, Perfume, etc.) on top most of the time when I talk about the Oricon compared to the smaller ones like Sayu and Yana that I am more interested over the past year or so...

Once again you're answering yourself with the same question you stated in the 1st paragraph

To me simply put if you don't like what you're seeing on Oricon , just don't come back to this thread again , problem solved

There're others who're genuinely more interested on what's going on in Oricon , who's coming out with new releases & etc . For your case , complaining for the sake of complaining will not solve anything (let alone whining that Perfume will not get #1 this week cos of SMAP) & it's a complete waste of time doing it too

And F.Y.I , Tegomass will not be getting #1 next week when they release Sayonara ni Sayonara cos of ARASHI . Will you be whining about that this coming week too ?

Well, I might still come back here, but it seems I'm having a hard time on controlling myself not to comment negatively...

Well, I'm not whining on that. (Obviously it's Johnny's vs. Johnny's!) It's just "I'm whining on some favorite artists", that's why...but Tegomass isn't an artist I'm quite interested, and, yes, I'm aware of this:

And yes, I do also agree on this:

I really have to wonder why even younger ones today are interested in SMAP...
