Well in only the first official day it's half way to reach the 20th place.

So, why not?

Its so funny, I made two polls talking about this and her 1st week predictions for this release over a month or so ago; I personally REALLY hope she does and think she more than deserves it since this is her pre-extended sabbatical encore, and not just because of my bias as a fan of hers. She just honestly has the best to offer this year for J-pop (admittedly a particularly easy feat even though she's made an art out of doing so for over a decade) with even but five new songs and the 15 previous classics...

I'm not saying the other artists aren't necessarily legitimate, because if there wasn't a diversity of music to listen to besides Hikki it would of course be mundane and irrelevant like it would be with anyone else. But you just wish that those demographics will pull through and just buy the damn physical CD even if it a mere greatest hits (its not like they don't do it for the endless re-packagings and glut 'Best-Ofs' by the likes of Ayu, Arashi,EXILE,and Koda even when they also buy their singles and studio albums physically)...I know her sales won't be once they once were simply due to industry trends that seemingly can't be reversed but you just really want something like this to be successful when it was obviously such a labor of love, with the promotion to boot!

Her chances are still looking relatively good on landing in @ #2 Yearly at best for the 1st to next 3 weeks, but we'll see, only 'time will tell' (and the people's fickle preferences) ....(I just don't know why people aren't going as frantic buying it out w/ all this promotion and high expectations for her pre-sabbatical hiatus); it's just disheartening that she can't do the numbers she once could not just because of a receeding industry format but because of the mainstream's fixation with absolute flack; there are exceptions to that point but there should just be a more dominant following of commited CD purchasers, who knows really, but things can and have a funny way of turning around when we least expect them)...

No.. I have lost much of my faith in hoping that she will break 1 million with her current sales. At most her first week sales will be a little over 200,000, or HOPEFULLY at 300,000. If her first week sales are over 200,000, then maybe she can hit 500,000 for sales by the end of the year, but I'm kind of doubtful. Most of her albums have sold around half of her entire sales, so I think she has a chance to hit around 6th place

If everything stays consistent w/ it in the Top 10 (highly likely) and pushing 15-25+K for the next month or so, it'll least make it into the Top 10, w/ 5 being an ultimatum stretch but we'll stay hopeful until proven otherwise!...

I believe the sales will either stay steady or become higher. My thesis is that people are expecting the five new songs to be just like TITO, leaving them hesitant to purchase. Once people starting raving about the album and the new songs, and the new Pepsi NEX CM comes out, people will start buying again. (I also have this feeling of jealousy; she did in fact go to America and focus her efforts on the US for the past two years.)

About 20k a day leaves her about 40-50 days to get #1 by the end of the year. We only have the month of December. Let's hope and pray this album can reach at least 500k!

She has to sell 9-10K everyday until the end of the year just to make Top 10 Honors and Japan's Golden Disc Best Albums rank; which is not the stretch of her making numero uno (fine with me, because @ the end of it all, we know which one was REALLY best best!)...

Now her official Oricon tally stands @ 297K+; she would've been #18 for the yearly rank but accounting for Mr. Children's SENSE clearing 501K this week, she's @ #19 right now. Looking @ any upcoming releases with a relative low shot at commercial success, I think its safe to say she'll break Top 10 if she remains 9-10K daily until year's end!

Don't worry, I think by the time the concert ends and with the promotions of "Arashi no Megami", "Can't wait til Christmas" plus "Show me Love (Not a dream)" for Ashita no Joe, the sales will rise up a bit.
