We are introducing an improvement to the way we report the iTunes chart starting this week. Read more about it and see the improved chart after the jump.

With the iTunes chart, we’re going to try something different. We’re going to try to flesh out the chart, instead of just giving you what was #1. iTunes doesn’t have official daily or weekly charts but they do have charts that update every few hours. The charts basically stay the same throughout the week with some small fluctuations. The songs that chart on iTunes aren’t always the same as the ones that chart on Recochoku. By fleshing out the chart, we’re going to try to give you a better picture of the scene in Japan. With that being said, here we go:

1. Hata Motohiro – Himawari no Yakusoku

2. Shonan no Kaze – Puzzle

3. ONE OK ROCK – Mighty Long Fall

4. STYLE FIVE – FUTURE FISH

5. BUMP OF CHICKEN – You were here

6. Takako Matsu – Let It Go ~Ari no Mama de~ (Japanese Version)

7. Gesu no Kiwami Otome. – Ryoukiteki na Kiss wo Watashi ni Shite

8. CHiCO with HoneyWorks – Sekai wa Koi ni Ochiteiru

9. Ikimonogakari – Love Song wa Tomaranai yo

10. TK from Ling Tosite Sigure – unravel
