Kimi no Koe was an album? Thought it was just a big single. Oh well, happy since I love that song.

And at least I see May'n on there. Glad to see May J. still charting. This cover album is the best thing to happen to her.

happy for Ikimonogakari! i don't know how many gimmicks they used vs Super junior but still glad they did well even with that gap.

somehow Super junior and 2pm looking like they are doing really well in japan huh.
i like super junior but i just can't understand the popularity of 2pm at all

Even K-pop fans don't get it... They did kinda flop this year in Korea with that A.D.T.O.Y song (that was such a boring song OTL), which is why it surprises me that they're doing ok in Japan...

it's disappointing for Iki, but totally expected for Suju...if Iki have performed the way they usually are, the gap would've been much wider...and I don't understand what you meant by Japanese record labels not wanting Kpop artists to top the chart, it's not Iki who've had gimmicks to sell the album, Suju were the one who had Tokyo Dome...Iki basically only appear on Music Station for this one, and unlike Suju who actually have the whole alley filled with their posters (courtesy of Avex's influence), Iki have none of those...thanks to Tokyo Dome, Suju managed to sell more on the last 2 days, but Iki held their own by being more consistent...I've a feeling that if Suju didn't have those Tokyo Dome dates, they wouldn't even surpass 100k...

Congrats to Iki! I liked the album, though I preferred Newtral.

I'm happy for Iki but at the same time unhappy at how small that gap is between them and Suju. 'I' was a damn good album too.

And yes I love that SKE got #1 two weeks in a row. Just when you thought KARA might have an easier week...
