Yes, we get it, you don't like Troublemaker, but could you PLEASE stop calling it "a mindless boring pop song" every single time. Some of us LIKE the song and it's not as if you're a musical expert that gets to decide which song is good and which song isn't.

You're entitled to your own opinion, but when you put it like that it makes people who like the song sound like we're stupid and know nothing of music >_>

jun will make an announcement on his radio show next week! maybe it's his new drama? or maybe it's FINALLY about a new arashi album?! i'm already too excited, lol.

[Nackar_91]

Ooh, I hope it's a new album! They haven't released a studio album in the entire period I've been following them, so I'd really like it if they do XD

[Chessur]

YEah hopefully it is a new album. its been suuuuuuuper long since they have actually released a new album. Ill just be on the look out just incase it is a new album Im scared that if they do release an album all the LE will sell out and Ill have to sell half of my soul to get my hand on a LE copy.

OMG! At this point they're selling 493,384 and there's still about one more day left for week count! No doubt this will go over 500,000, yet I haven't been keeping track of that until I haven't realized it's already Monday in Japan right now and it's only Sunday morning in my place, and usually the Sunday sales mark the end of weekly sales count for the particular week...

[Nackar_91]

That's amazing, around the same level as TRUTH/Kaze no Mukou e and Believe/Kumori Nochi, Kaisei! Which means that their general sales are going up! XD

Already one single selling 690k, now one probably selling around 600k, let's hope they can keep this pace up!

Could there be a "consistency curve or line" here? They already sold over 520,000! I hope this is a United World Chart #1 overall...

BUT we all know arashi is going to pass the 500k mark so those are amazing sales as compared to other singles released this week

[Bigtop]

I think the wave has died down...

Even so, it has sold as much as was predicted weekly! Even more than Troublemaker!

However, considering the sudden sharp drop in sales I dont think it will sell more in total ... then again, what do I know? XD
