Glad to see that GLAY still manage to get decent Oricon sales despite most of their die-hard fans bought the albums from G-DIRECT and sales from that store aren't counted in Oricon.
Also, to Kanjani8 fans who are wondering how the Eight Ranger movie DVD/Blu-Ray is doing, it tops the overall DVD and Blu-Ray charts this week: http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/ranking/2021120/full . Maybe it'll get translated later.
