That's good, right?

No.1 would've been better, but it's a good start. They can still become No. 1 at the end of the week. I think Mr. Taxi also debuted at No. 2 and eventually became No. 1.

I heard it's their biggest debut ever there. It is definitely great.

That's good. It will pass Mr. Taxi's first week for sure. :wink:

Highly unlikely! The daily sales are already lower and the total sales after 3rd day are lower too! If sales do not increase in the weekend, this will end up around 88k first week! (Mr. Taxi 100k first week)

3rd day: #2 8,559 [Total: 70,334]

I thought the same.

But all that matters is the new album IMO.

Of course. Since they are the highest Asian act this week. And Mr. Taxi only peaked at #22 there. So it's really good.

It's not their native language. They don'r want to disappoint Japanese fans.

I forgot that japaneses don't have any standard for music. I don't think AKB48 has ever sung live.
But it isn't that hard to learn their lines, it is just one song.

I don't know what you native language is but imagine you'd have to sing in Korean or Japanese. You'd definitely make many spelling mistakes and they just want to avoid that.

by **crazycool** » Tue Jul 10, 2012 9:16 am

I think it's more due to the rules of each country - I think it's really frowned upon to mime in Korea. So if they don't HAVE to sing live in Japan, why should they?! :lol:

by **crazycool** » Tue Jul 10, 2012 9:17 am

Someone did tell me once it was illegal to lipsync in Korea - not sure if this is true at all. :oops:
