I actually thought their album was pretty decent. They're a pretty hit and miss band to begin with, Beautiful you STILL doesn't sound good, but other than that, the album was decent.

I really wonder why its even selling so well!
even their fanbase isn't happy with the material!

one person doesn't represent the whole fanbase most of their fans seem to love the album. even if personally think it's a weak album, i'm glad they're doing so well

I'm fairly happy with this album. I like it much better than MIROTIC. I still don't understand how that album sold 500k+, it only had 2-3 good songs o_O

i prefer this album to the other previous albums as well..even better than T
not to compare with MIROTIC~
i think the sales are getting higher because ppl actually love their new music taste?
their new songs are not like they used to have..

se7entheaven, hmm the boys can't really do anything bout that since they've chosen to have careers in both countries..and even some asian countries with their Asia Tours~ it's sure pity them..but they can't just stop producing Japanese albums, if they don't, they will feel like being indebted with the Japanese fans.. can't go back anymore~
just pray hard that they still have good rest~

juicy, agree

i thought all of their release singles were awesome, and to be in one album i know it'll be a great album. to those who want to purchase their cds/dvds/etc, YESASIA has cut MOST of the prices off for tohoshinki/DBSK stuff. ive been trying to get their 2nd asia tour first press dvd and it went up to $140-170 O_O i dont have that kind of money.

^Yeah but when you buy the stuff (singles, albums) you want to do it to support the artist and help them chart on the Oricon. Buying from YesAsia does not help Tohoshinki in the long run, so I would not recommended you buy the album from there.

waa really?? thats my favorite album by them it's what made me their fan

i dont know if this is old but i thought it was interesting so:

Quote:
Akanishi Jin thinks DBSK is cool.

Q: When you go karaoke-ing, what song do you usually sing?

Akanishi Jin: I can’t really decide. It really depends on the time, sometimes its Linkin Park or some others. Hey, have you heard of Tohoshinki? I only got to know them recently. But I heard they actually sing in Japanese ne. It’s really cool, right? Totally cool.

ah~ the JE artist has started to notice Tohoshinki huh??

apparently a new comer Japanese actor bought The Secret Code

Quote:
Kato Keisuke bought a copy of Tohoshinki's "The Secret Code"

Rough translation by mihsayam @LJ
He mentions how it was pretty awkward for him to inquire about the album, most probably because he was male. XD My Japanese is still very rough, but I think he also praised the amazing vibe the album has and the members. To those who don't really mind reading Japanese, click here for the blog entry.

PLEASE TAKE OUT WITH FULL CREDITS.

I kinda agree with you...but what's more important is that tohoshinki is now slowly climbling up the stairs to fame and recognition.

The secret code is a decent album; the album tracks didn't really stand out but i like TAXI and 9095, and i'm still trying to get used to the english in Stand up! :s Nevertheless, all the single tracks (maybe except for Kiss The Baby Sky) are awesome!

I just love Bolero and DKWSND?, so I'm really happy the album is doing well.
But Ayu will still leave them in the dust, as she has many times before.
But it'll still be their highest-charting Japanese album!!

I can't believe people don't like the whole album, I've been looking forward to it since september...

I'm also still waiting for my copy, although I'm going to Japan in a few days.... I hope my friend can send me my copy!! xD

So what's so bad about the album??? I already love the single songs... can't wait to hear the new songs.
