Single HKT48 1st [Suki! Suki! Skip!] 13/03/20

100k isn't going to be an issue at all. It easily should be doing about 140-150k first day. The group's been around long enough now and I wouldn't underestimate Sasshi's wota either.

In other news, "Kataomoi no Karaage" is going to be used as the title song for a new installment of "My Little Pony" that's to start broadcasting on April 2nd. A number of girls were present at a press event for the anime yesterday.

^ is it really a surprise that girls appear at ALL48 events and such?
girls love idols too

it's really sweet that it's gonna be on My Little Pony
they can definitely pull a younger audience with their fresh look and cute songs

 

The PV is finally out online...not Youku yet

I think that it's a good PV and not too boring...Sasshi kawaii overload...and it's nice to see Rabutan in the senbatsu again

 

I think he meant some girls FROM HKT lol

I don't care much about the sales, since this is not Haruppi centered, so... yeah. I know they'll do great, so...

 

I don't think they'll get anywhere near 200k. Sasshi's 2nd single sold just 68k. Sure they've been around longer than NMB when they debuted, but most of the time they were doing absolutely nothing and getting no exposure at all. i'll say 80k first day and 130k week.

 

my bet : 90k first day, 130 k week

 

HKT Suki! Suki! Skip in HD
You know you guys can just rely on Jpopsuki for PVs. Their PVs are higher quality than Youku.

It's just that the loading time for me. It's still great though.

 

Suki! Suki! Skip!

Yay! just as I hoped it's a KKS song ​

 

Oricon reports that HKT sells 205,278 on first day.

(source)

There you go. That wasn't so hard.

 

That's amazing. I'm so happy I was completely wrong [party]

 

[party] [party] I can't believe it, this is really a great news, I was predicting that this number will be for the 1st week & I will be super happy, CONGRATULATION GIRLS [party] [party]

 

Thats awesome lol, higher than both SKE and NMB's debut first day sales [shock] Congratulations HKT48 on the successful debut!! [party]

 

I kinda had a feeling they would sell that much.

I'm glad my suspicions were right. [party]

HKT is full of great girls so it's good to see that they are getting recognition and sales, yay.

 

There you go.

Good for the girls! But I kind of feel bad for other idol groups lol

 

just for compare

^ Basically, HKT just curb-stomped every other group with the best debut first day sales in the 48 family

Wonder if they'll reach 255k by the end of the week

 

They better have, I mean this group has been here for longer than an other sister group before their debut, anything less than 200k would've been really bad. But yeah I'm hoping they'd hit somewhere near 270~300k by the end of the week (hoping that sales will increase on weekend). Anyways so glad for my bbs.​

 

omg

what a really nice news

i'm really happy now

this really make my day!

 

I hate being wrong but in this case, I'm right with ya. I literally irl gasped when I saw the numbers. So happy for these girls. Success well deserved (and a long time coming). [party]

I can't believe this is actually going to surpass NMB's debut... 300K is very likely if the drops are not huge. Ganbatte girls! [rock]
