MM 4th Place in Daily Sales… in Their 2nd Week!!
This is a copy of something I posted on h!O, but I want to say it again.
Top 2nd week places for MM’s recent singles
SYO- 30th
NC- 36th
PK- 19th
RB- 30th
Mikan- 22nd
Onsa- 30th
KT- 21st
And Nanchatte Renai 4th!!! 
One of MM’s big problems in the past with their single sales is the way they just plummet in the 2nd week. Looks like this one isn’t having that problem. All the wota and die hard fans buy their single ASAP, in week one, but 2nd week sales are much more telling of how they are doing with the non-wota casual fans and non-fans. That means that this single is successfully attracting lots of people who don’t usually buy MM stuff. If they can keep this kind of momentum going, and no garuantee that they can, we could be looking at the start of MM’s newest “golden age”.
:O They’ve been doing a lot of promoting and what not, so that could be why too. Not only that, the song is great and the girls look amazing. I used to think it was a weak line-up, but they grew and now have these amazing bonds with each other, and now I think they could be one of the strongest line-ups ever in morning musume.
I completely agree with you, Celestia and you too, Hapichan. I felt the same way. longing for the “good ol’” days. But with the growth of the bonds and confidence in themselves as a group, plus seeing them in LA, plus great single releases, albeit with a new and different sound, these girls seem very, very strong indeed. I hope no one graduates any time soon. There. I just jinxed us. Damn.
this is great news! i do love NR so it’s nice to see such great results from it.
the surprising thing is that they are still 4th, seeing as there was a campaign on H!O about everyone pre-ordering it and giving momusu a second number 1.
so that’s great!!!
