[Poll] Predict the first week sales for Itano's "Fui Ni"
« on: July 10, 2011, 01:56:06 PM »
Hardest sales to predict ever?

It's a massive 8 week release spree and Itano's in the middle of it...

Less promotion than Dear J, I think, but still a lot of CMs and other media attention for this single.

It can sell much less than Dear J, but also more than Flower... Who knows  :panic:

In comparison, Dear J sold 162,871.

I voted 120K. Not yet doesn't even look likely to top the sales of their first single (or, at least by very much). I think that's because of a weak song + this streak, and I think that's also going to apply to Fui ni :doh:

Don't get me wrong, though, I'd love for her to sell a whole bunch more.

150k. i really think this would sell even more than dear j but because there are so many consecutive releases, sales will be affected. but i don't think it would drop too much either. so getting 150k will be really nice.  :)

200k

She's my oshimen so that's what I hope. It's a shame that I can't buy one 'cause I want to buy all 4 versions  :heart:

I think she must be happy if she can break a 100K.

Dear J became quite the hit song and it had much more impact somehow.

I don't think this release streak will work in her advantage... I think casual fans are more likely to pick up the new NY or SKE.
On the other hand, Itano may have a different type of fans, at least to some extent, which could also mean she won't be affected by the release streak...

I'm guessing 100K.

Just about everything measurable in her life this year after Dear J have gone downhill - general election, MIXI ranking you name it. Less promotion with this single is self evident as well, but it was expected because she have more or less established her solo carrier now.

So I think it will sell less than Dear J, but like BarrieV said Itano may have a different type of fans. I don't mind being surprised if it will out do Dear J.

I'm gonna be a pessimist this time and say 130k. 'Fui ni' just doesn't seem to have as much hype as 'Dear J' :panic:

First day around 50K, which means if she has a similar run as dear J she'll end up at around 107K. However, Dear J had a pretty strong run, so I think 100K would be a nice target.
