#2?! ...man, that's disappointing

Also, we seem to have missed about 3.5K in our daily calculations

edit: ooh, you're talking the monthly rankings. They did get the weekly #1! PHEW.

#2 for the month is pretty dang impressive, since it was only on sale for the last 6 days of the month.

Last week, AKB48 released their 16th major label single, "Ponytail to Chouchou." They proved their popularity once again, taking #1 with 513,000 copies sold. This is the first single by a female group to break half a million in opening week sales since Morning Musume's "Renai Revolution 21" in 2000 (515,000 copies), and the first by a female artist since Hikaru Utada's "Can You Keep A Secret?" in 2001 (784,000 copies).

TVXQ's Junsu, under the name XIAH junsu, took #2 with his solo single, selling 195,000 copies. This sets the current record for a solo artist so far this year.

Lia and Aoi Tada's collaborative single ranked #3 for the week, while S/mileage made it to #5. Sata Andagi (#7), ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION (#8), and Etsuko Yakushimaru (#10) also made the top ten.

On the albums chart, Quruli's "Boku no Sundeita Machi" led the way with 20,000 copies sold. Reunited rock band Anzen Chitai was #3, marking their first top-three appearance in roughly 20 years. Right behind them were Seiko Matsuda (#4) and Boom Boom Satellites (#5), while GReeeeN's special album entered at #10.

13th this week on the Oricon charts

BUT

THEY'VE PASSED 600K

Ponytail to Shushu sales crept over the 600k mark after 6 weeks. Total sales stand at 600,138.

^ Nice... only the 3rd single to cross the 600k mark this year behind who else but Arashi. Definitely a top 5 single for 2010!

Can't wait to see what Aki-P has planned to boost up sales of future singles.

I finally sat down and watched the other PVs

I knew Nusumareta Kuchibiru has some awesome Rena moments, but I never realized how pretty the rest of them are in this pv. Especially Kumi. Ami is super cute and sasshi's also very pretty.

Majijo Teppen Blues also has some great scenes... komori talking again, Jurippa climbing the stairs... Takamina's solo break. Great stuff.
