(Japan) Hot 100 = Airplay + CD singles
Oricon = CD Singles
RIAJ Digital chart = digital copies
Right?
So I don't get why everyone is saying that Oricon is the "best" chart there (while the Hot 100 is irrelevant), considering it's only based on physical copies and that digital >>>.

Because it is the most relevant chart in Japan, and CD singles are still selling like hot cakes there, and it's better to know how well the song did without airplay. Foreign artist are never doing well on the singles chart because they never ship enough singles.
So what's the recochoku chart??
and which chart is the most important amd the least important?

In term of digital sales, Recochoku is the most important. However, Oricon is the most official charts in Japan but they only count physical sales (albums and singles)
