Kanjani8 are back at number one with their latest single “Samurai Uta (Samurai Song)”.
Although it reached #1 and sold 147,943 copies, this is significantly lower than their previous single “Maemuki Scream!” which had debut sales of 282,644. However, they still outsold their nearest competitor, Namie Amuro, by over 100’000 copies.
On the album chart, Gen Hoshino takes the top spot for the first time with his 4th album “YELLOW DANCER”, selling 131,990 copies.
With just one week on the chart, “YELLOW DANCER” is the third best-selling original album released by a male soloist in 2015 behind Acid Black Cherry’s and Shougo Hamada’s.
