I'm pretty sure she must be really sad about this. Who needs 3M opening in the US when you can go top 10 in Japan right? lol

If she wanted to break the asian market she would bother to promote there but it's pretty clear its not a priority.

Coming for 5M WW.

Did 21 actually sell 250,000 in Japan? Isn't it only certified gold (100,000)?

You can stop right there with the Janet shade. I suggest editing this post before it gets reported for off-topic.

ORICON physical only sales in both 2011 & 2012:

2011:

2012:

35. 165,034 Adele / 21 (#1 western album of that year)

Total: 215,762 physical sales

It most likely has!

Mess, she opened with larger numbers than EMOTION and people here think Carly is big in Japan By that logic so is Adele...

Obviously she's big, it's Adele Just not as huge as in other countries, which is why she's "flopping", but still doing as well as any big act in Japan

[Frozen99]

#4 in Japan is more than respectable

[Harrys Hairflip]

Adele is over

After less than a week, 25's tumbling down the chart doesn't look like it's ending anytime soon with a mediocre #28 position on the daily chart after a mere 5 days.

I don't think I want to visit Japan anymore

[Idontcareaboutyou]

It will probably be the only country where she won't even scan past gold, unless she actually goes there to promote it.

[NOW]

And to think, just one performance and a couple promo appearances can make her happen there.

POOR HA!

[DuaneT]

poor japan and their taste

[ebuc]

Utada's stans.

[Crescendolls.]

They probably heard the news about Utada's record so they decided to boycott

Why can't she get Japan to Focus on her?

I bet y'all planning your Japan boycott are hypocrites and eating supermarket sushi, benefiting from Japanese contributions to global cuisine, right now behind the keyboard as we speak. Tragic.

Am I not allowed to watch animes anymore ?

Considering the WW situation I think it was Japan that flopped, not Adele
