Dropped to #17 on CDTV. Didn’t crack top 10

 

another week still no MV.....

I wonder if they are going to release the MV on the 2nd MV collection bluray/dvd as a limited edition bonus lol

 

At least it's something new on the second MV collection. The first one had two new MVs for AraRomance and Sekkachi. What's the second one have to offer in its current form? Management will say, "We put Nanamin's solo on it!" So what? We can watch if forever on YouTube. I wish we'd get something new on that 2nd MV collection that would be worth it...

 

Yeah, those sales numbers aren't good, eh.

Not so much wow wow wow as no no no.

 

Is it really a surprise? The Sakamichi groups aren't that strong digitally.

 

Those download numbers are fine. Downloads is not the marker of a successful song nowadays. It’s streaming.

how do the streaming numbers look?

 

0

 

? Is it not available for streaming?

damn legs... it times to use sexier concept.

 

Japan's in a holiday period right now, so we're not seeing it today (Monday)... (keep in mind Sunday was supposed to be when the Olympics was supposed to end, had it not been for human malware COVID-19)

 

@ryandtw How does the end of the supposed Olympics influence the release of the MV?

 

streaming numbers are even worse. I's not surprising, we all know these idols singles sales are pumped up by gimmicks like HS events and they can't use them atm.
But the GP is not here for that #WOWWOW mess and bad idol singles (even if sometimes there are some exceptions), they listen to other songs and artists.

 

Nobody buys digital downloads, this isn't 2008.
