Main pop girls in Japan must be THRIVING if a compilation can sell that much in one day

Compilations sell more in Japan than studio albums on average, its the opposite in the western music scene. 

 

Also the woman is retiring so this is an anomaly for the current market in Japan too, theres really only 2 main pop girls that sell a lot anymore, Japan has prefered groups over solo female artists for quite a few yeaars

A Brazil buying live albums over studio records tea. I don't get why Japan does that, I see singles selling very well there and a compilation is a bunch of singles.

The latter fact you stated is unfortunate. I've listened to a couple Namie songs and I'd pick them instead of any group song.

[Suilen]

That's just as much as BEST FICTION's first week

[greeneyedsoul]

Will she outsell P!nk?

Taylor will come thru anyway, but Namie could have the second biggest album by a female artist this year.

Does it have a chance to be the #1 album on Oricon this year?

I forgot that even though it was released in 2016 it counts for the 2017 yearly chart

[Newt]

Wow, her 2 days sales are killer 

[Kuroi]

Ahhhh my fave

[Isaiah]

The Adele of japan 

[Rentboy]

No clue who she is but Im here for her beating Taylors numbers.

 

[iphridian]

Depending on how the sales of her album will be the next few days, she has a small chance of beating Taylor's numbers. But goddamn Namie! Get all that money.
