Jesus. That's like... right there with Momusu.

[Daisuki Daiiyo]

I'm so happy for them, those are really good numbers! Hopefully this momentum can carry them onto Mste or something for more promo lol

I hope it breaks 100k sales and gets a RAJ certification ;_; I'm sure it'd mean so much more to the girls than the Oricon ranking.

Let's see how Momusu sells with Billboard this single. :3

So can we all just collectively agree to ignore oricon in favor of billboard?

Also dem sales

Super proud. Well deserved. Even if some of it is graduation hype, this is one of C-utes best singles of all time.

That depends on what you want to know.

If you want to know the actual sales, which determine the revenue to the company and therefore the financial viability of H!P, then go with Billboard.

If you want to know the normalized sales (i.e., one person equals one sale), which provide a better gauge of the number of fans and therefore the relative popularity of H!P, then go with Oricon.

It might even be an introvert-versus-extrovert sort of thing.
