Oh that was cuca? Saw her pic on Sayu's 2ch thread but I didn't recognize her and no one brought it up there.
They're more concerned about how Sayu's gonna react when she saw a cute elementary school girl standing in line

[Nayoko-Kihara]

It might just be me, and I don't know what was happening at the moment the picture was taken, but she doesn't look all that happy.

3rd week

sold 1,572
total 101,770

[questorminator]

Really good numbers for a third week! I still feel we can get another 1K out of this one. But in total, this is more than what I hoped for.

[Jessi]

Do those handshake tickets still count towards sales? Like each time they visit a prefecture is it contributing towards sales?

[iceymoon]

yes, Jessi. :] in order to get a ticket you need to buy the single.

[Jessi]

I just get confused because sometimes the handshake events are for preorders where the single copies were already bought so they don't count towards sales. Not new sales at least.
