I wonder if they have a strong following like Kobushi did in the beginning ? I would hate for this to flop as much as I'm not total vested in them

[Denki]

With the new Oricon rules, it's impossible for them to be at the same level as Kobushi at debut sales-wise since they had a shit ton events pre and post release. (And that's if ignore their hype and popularity at that time...) I think if Tsubaki manages to get at least 20k in their first week, it's success to me.

Obviously, I'm already interested. Personally, I hope we don't get any "edited version(s) of an already released song(s)" like Kobushi and Juice=Juice.

[Nayoko-Kihara]

If having some kind of "new" version of an indie single meant I would get a video for "Obaasan" on YouTube, I would be in complete favor of it. That's one of my two favorites from their indie releases.

[Jessi]

I honestly don't have high hopes for this. Of course I wont come to any conclusions before hearing the single first, but I don't think its going to sell very high. If they hit over 20,000 then I think they will be off to a good start. I'm proud of them for their debut. I also am looking forward to see how the 3 new girls fit in.

[Amped]

wow, no faith in them at all before they even debut. that is just wrong. -_-"

[Jessi]

I meant in terms of sales. Just being realistic, but you can crucify me if you wish.

[Denki]

Pre-order have already begun on sites like Amazon JP and Neowing/CDJapan.

As long as the dedicated fans don't start pre-ordering until late November. I don't think casuals would preorder before any preview is released. Sorta wished UF would have prevented listings until after their fanclub event on 11/23...

[321BreakinOut]

What dedicated fans ? Crucify me too

[Denki]

Fuck y'all. It's not their fucking fault that they were formed when all of Berryz' fans moved on to CG/KF and debuting before ℃-ute disbands.
