Yay!
Hopefully a return to the Combined Top 50 next week as well.

I see on Oricon website it's a new entry as the Chromatica Japan Tour Edition... and not a re-entry, though...
Hopefully it'll be considered a re-entry on the weekly chart so its sales are added to the original album.

By the way I just received the Japan Tour Edition at home (such a fast delivery, omg!) and it's soooo beautiful.

[Moella]

Yeah I noticed it’s the new edition charting but I assumed the totals would be combined! Hopefully this is the case!

It depends on her label... I'm curious about how close she is to 100k units. We'll have the digital sales soon.

I'm think they are separate

The album did ~60k units in 2020. We know it thanks to the YEC, where it was close to Nakajima's album (which had had just passed 60k)

So it was considered a new entry?

[AnderF10]

^ yes...

[nympho]

^ yes...

So what do you think it’ll happen tomorrow on the combined chart?
It’ll be considered a new entry as well? And on the digital albums chart?

We won’t be having updated totals then, I guess…

For God’s sake, it includes just one song not originally included on Chromatica… even the DVD is the same one already included on the Japanese version of the BoxSet… no reason AT ALL for this to chart separately.

Well, good news!!!!! Her label reported all units to the regular version. When it comes to the physical chart they always chart as a new release, but I'm glad they paid attention this time.

So she was really close to 100k units just before the concerts in Japan. Good job for Gaga

[nympho]

Amazing!
So it surpassed 100k units!
If only they certified albums by total units by now…

Is this true?

I think they obviously mean this decade, the 2020s, not the last 10 years, in case there’s any doubt.

Is this true?

"Officially" yes, cause we don't have acess to Oricon numbers, unless the album chart inside their Top 50... I think that that the biggest western releases this decade (besides Chromatica) are folklore, = and An Evening with Silk Sonic.


folklore (26,665 P + 9,159 D as of march 2021 = 35,824 pure sales)
= (26,836 P + 8,133 D as of february 2022 = 34,969 pure sales) ~60k units as of february 2022
An Evening with Silk Sonic (36,431 P + 9,783 D as of april 2022 = 46,214 pure sales) 66k units as of last week

The big difference is that Chromatica had a huge hit in Japan.

I think that that folklore and = are at 70-80k by now, but just a roughly estimation.
