1045937 PHYSICAL copies of their latest single 風は吹いている sold in 1 DAY. With this, they have the top 3 biggest grossing singles of the year worldwide, with each of them making at least 15 million dollars

Comment

When will our faves ?

Actually the cheapest I found was 19 dollars on amazon, so the gross must be even bigger

#1: 1.045.937
#2: 22.068

I wonder how they share the profit between all 154,120 members.

3. Bump of Chicken



This chart must be a joke.

Bump of Chicken is a japanese rock band that debuted in 1999. All of their singles since their third (Tentai Kansoku) in 2001 went top 5. When will your fave?

A mess, those girls are huge there

IKR, even if they split the money they got this year in 48, all of them will get at least 1 million

I can't with these gurls, I honestly can't.

So effortlessly ******** on the rest
Who the **** else sells 1 million PHYSICAL singles, let alone in ONE day?

And I can't at a SINGLE in Japan costing twice as much as an ALBUM in the US

Such crazy otakus. I will never understand them.

new single, new records

No. you underestimated the buying power of Otakus and harajuku girls in Japan. They are frantic.

GaGa could never.

and they don't even count digital sales

Insane.... let alone sales of ringtones and Karaoke rights
