Mottai Night Land sold 29,583 copies overall. Her most recent single (Yume no Hajimaring Ring Ring) sold 12,378 copies in its first week. Kyary isn't competition.

Kyary is only a competition when it comes to albums.

This the main threat when it comes to #1.

Sexy Zone sold 172,925 for it's debut single.
Something similar is to expected here I assume.

Releasing on the same day is risky.
Although MM '14 will certainly give them a run for their money.

Then again: H!P promo is at an all time high. A lot is possible here.

Yep. #1 is basically guaranteed unless Johnny's West debuts on the 16th.

Previous sales from the rest of the competition:
ClariS: 20,986
Rev. From DVL: N/A (major debut single)
SONAR POCKET: 13,730
The Birthday: 7,054
Negicco: 5,269
ACIDMAN: 12,294
Shibasaki Kou: 4,188
moumoon: 4,409

Dream5 are releasing on 4/23, not 4/16.

yeah . idk if the new johnny's group is comp yet but kiss my ft-2's debut single sold 315k in its first week :s
so this could be interesting....

sexy zone was also 100k plus too and these juniors debuting have been around for a while now and they're a mix of actors, one guy is 26 but idk how this will play out

Sohee might have a better idea of the context of their debut in terms of competition?

Going against Johnny's (and beating them) would be pretty ballsy though.
Can you imagine MM '14 beating Johnny's 'debut-at-#1' streak ?
Hardcore wota's would certainly be driven to buy up those few extra copies.

Isn't rev from dl the idol group from fukuoka that got hyped to hell and back last year in japan? Well, one of its members anyway...
Will be interesting seeing them go up against MM, as far as internet commentators are concerned XD
for the evulz : i hope MM crushes them sales-wise, then get Hashimoto Kanna into H!P like Rikako did (popular member from a local idol group) ... it'd be hilarious watching some of her fans who said she's wasted in her current group and wanted her to join ***48 froth at the mouth lmao

I know it's said "o", but only sometimes, right? :unsure:

To keep with consistency of past titles it should be Toki wo Koe Sora wo Koe.

Masculine versus feminine, formal versus informal, etc. Technically, it's "o" and always has been, but "wo" sounds more girlish and/or poetic, especially in the title or lyrics of a song.

I'm not sure about two in the same title, though. That's a bit weird.
