[Charts & Rankings] Official Oricon Thread ~Rock'n'Roll Circus & ARENA TOUR 2009 NEXT LEVEL~

[truehappiness]

Can someone translate or tell what is that Oricon article about?

It just says that she got 1st place with 205,000, and that she's the first female soloist in 22 years since Yuming to reach 10 #1 albums. (And the first soloist since 2003)~

They also mention how she's had a #1 album every year since 1999.

That's great! Both in numbers and in the having a #1 every year since '99. People really have to stop bugging out over the exact numbers. I mean, more so since you can buy albums digitally and I bet a good number of people are doing that. -_-; If Oricon counter that, I bed we'd see better sales numbers.

GREAT AYU ^^

yay 205k! now let's reach 300K in the long run ^^ XDDD

you see... from the estimated sales (193K) to 205K there's 12k! pretty good ^^

and YAY for the records ^^ first solo female with 10 #1 albums in 22 years?? wow

I wonder who was the solo artist who had 10 #1 albums in 2003... it's quite a lot of time too ^^

what do you think she will sell this second week? maybe 30-40K?

[truehappiness]

長渕剛 - Nagabuchi Tsuyoshi was the artist in 2003. (His albums after peaked at #2, mostly #4 or #5 before getting a #2 last year.)

Is it just me or do most artists nowadays end up falling out of the public eye by their 5th or 6th album? (They drop from the "top" basically)

[rakeru]

I can't believe it actually made 205k. Way to go, little album!

[ayumisrael]

Yay it did it!! I'm so happy. =D

Thank you truehappiness. ^^

Great news! Does she currently have the best-selling studio album by a female artist this year? (Which will probably change if Superfly releases an album, but who cares!)

I knew she could do it! 200,000 in the first week, it totally deserved it!

Great job, Ayu!

What are the top 5 on the album charts right now? Is there still a bit of a gap between her and whoever is #2?

[Kazeyomi]

Yay! *_* congratz Ayu!

[truehappiness]

I think there's quite a bit of a gap, haha.

She's guaranteed top 3 next week I think since no one of note is really releasing other than Tegomass and their mini....

[Bigtop]

Whoa... That's outstanding!

[duque]

wooo really like the sales for the first week!!!

saddly enough I still havent listened to the album or gotten my copy~~~stupid mail guys retained my order...so its going to be tomorrow or 2 more days so I can go pick it up~

hoping for 70K~90K for second week then comes the huge drops but steady long sales XD

[AyuGAME]

205k!!! not bad...yay!!! good job ayu..
i hope it can break 275k this week...that means she need to sell about 70k this week...you can do it ayu!!!
