[2012.05.09] NMB48 - 4th Single "Nagiichi"

[lolym]

Shirogumi's song sounds great so far. And akagumi's pv looks fun and I give it bonus points for having having Keira in it

NINKI

Singles:

01 551.30 Arashi - Face Down
02 350.10 NMB48 - Nagiichi
03 95.80 SUPER JUNIOR - Opera
04 51.10 SID - S
05 19.10 TUBE - Itsumo, Itsumademo
06 17.90 Tokunaga Hideaki - Ningyo no Ie / Yume wa Yoru Hiraku
07 17.20 May'n - Chase the world
08 17.00 Kurosaki Maon - HELL:ium

Note 1:

The NINKI ratings are the results of a POLL conducted by Oricon indicating degree of interest/degree of purchase intention in an upcoming release. Although the ratings are never a true reflection of sales, it does give a strong prediction about where the single/album will place in terms of popularity amongst the Japanese public. However, they are NOT an indication of how it will perform in terms of chart positioning and total sales for the week.

Note 2:

According to Oricon's note under the NINKI page, Oricon researches about 870,000 of its members by random sampling of 400 members in their 10s until 40s. 50 men and 50 women are chosen randomly to participate in each age group. (However, some popular artists have had NINKI exceeding 500, so we can only assume that Oricon has extended the polling to around 600/700 people now.)

Arashi has a pretty good song, on top of being Arashi. I still wanna believe NMB can pull off a huge victory~~

What is this JEUGIA shop, I want type A from there.


Still pondering if I should buy this. Nagiichi looks pretty but the song itself didn't do much for me. B-sides however... Maybe I should grab type B from HMV with that Kinoshita photo. Bought it.

They nearly beat Arashi on opening day, and may very well have, if not for this release schedule. There's still time & hope for a weekly victory, I reckon.

At least they beat the kpoppers

First day sales:
#1 - 250,415　Arashi
#2 - 231,200　NMB48

Day 2:

#1 - 115,799　Arashi --> 366,214
#2 - 21,837　NMB48  --> 253,037

So yeah, zero chance of the weekly #1 anymore  Ninki ratings proved to be right again.

Don't forget, though, that sales may be slightly down for a variety of reasons:

1) Election. Fans are saving their money for MNSG voting power, and Election rankings may well be more important than the sales for one summer single
2) It's the summer single. Generic song, generic PV, nothing as good or creative as U-19 was for the A-side. Fans have come to expect more polished performances from NMB and SKE, especially after U-19. Nagiichi, despite having Kpop levels of sync, is still a very AKB song and dance. 
3) Exposure. I've barely seen any promotion for Nagiichi. U-19 was all over the place, and more importantly, many of the performances were in conjunction with AKB/SKE, exposing them to new people, not just the existing fanbase. There were even a few concert performances.

Nagiichi surpassed Junjou U19 already with today's epic sell with one day left to spare!

That aside, I just noticed they have a dance version pv of Nagiichi in their DVDs. I rather that they have the dance version of shirogumi though, the dance in there is fantastic. Yamamoto also look better as a clone!  Not that I am complaining though. 

I like SKE's A side more than Nagiichi, but both of NMB's B side is far superior to SKE's.
