I don't know if this's the updated figure or not

Beauty4123 · #**242** 23rd July 2008, 03:29 AM

ughhh hit the million already!

KarenPang · #**243** 23rd July 2008, 04:06 AM

^ lol Lisa

last I know , HS has been certified Million by RIAJ for shipment of a million copies

I think ULTRA BLUE didn't got certified Million so relax

Melon Panda · #**244** 23rd July 2008, 04:29 AM

Oh man. SO CLOSE. It would be terrible if it didn't hit a million.

I can't wait to see what Utada comes up with next. I feel like she'll go for a new style again.

^Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing here experimenting with a rocky style like Kettobase...

I like that your answers are short but straight to the point triple D

hopefully the updated sales figures of HS will be out soon but I'm definitely sure it has overtaken the domestic sales of UB already in Japan

Yepp, almost two months ago

omably · #**249** 23rd July 2008, 09:12 AM

Cool, I can't wait until it reached the million I think I might have to do a little dance when it does!

I hope HS stays in the top five albums for the year!

EDIT: Yay I'm a Song for XX Initiate now! LOL

bluegie · #**250** 23rd July 2008, 09:58 AM

The latest sales figure for HS should be 971,307 copies... Hmmn.. let's say it will sell around 3K per week more or less at this moment, then it will sell about 10K per month..
So probly it will hit million copies before the deadline of oricon

CoriKaru · #**251** 23rd July 2008, 10:16 AM

I'm not so sure.

omably · #**252** 23rd July 2008, 11:07 AM

^LOL Don't say that, you're making me nervous! Let's just hope an influx of people buy HS one week so that it reaches the million! ^ ^

For real real! (not for play play)

Maybe we should all go to Japan and buy a lot of copies of HS xD (and Guilty too!)

Hikki is now about 28k away from the million! She'll definitely reach it!

Oh no. Don't hate me. I'm hoping like the rest of you all that it makes it. I'm just trying to prepare myself and cushion my fall if it doesn't. But just for you all I'll keep more positive. It'll definitely reach the 1 Million Mark. No doubt...... ('-'; )

well you can look at it in another way , HS's the highest selling female album of the year so that's a cause for celebration

always try to look at a positive angle in a negative situation

I remember my first boyfriend always said that, and for some reason it just stuck. If you know which movie or TV it's from, let me know, I'm interested in seeing the original clip!

And thanks for being positive about the million. I'm sure she'll reach it, because HS has had really good chart life, so it's not completely out of the question. If she doesn't though, I won't be crushed, because she's outsold her previous album, and after being in the business this many years, to have sales for albums increase rather than decrease (as Ayu, Mai, Boa, and hitomi's sales have been doing for a while) is quite an achievement indeed.
