Can someone tell me why Gaga is selling so much in japan ?
And the argument "promotion" is not valid, cuz she was selling really well before her june-trip

Japan loves characters. That's why Avril used to be huge.

What caused Arashi to increase so much?

Their fans made a campaign so they could pass AKB48 and have the best selling album of the year. They were #1 for a day on oricon and now they are already out of the top 30

Dang, Gags is really selling well here.
