yay!!!! 8D i want to be free single!
im gonna bother that old man in crystalmall later XD

i'd love for it to break 200k as well. but im predicting 120-130k first week.
from what i gathered off the net, its seems that copies shipped are being restricted (as in jstorm did not produce alot in the first place), and in a few places, shops can't even take in anymore preorders cos of limited qtys.
plus, ntv only made an announcement for the single on the kaibutsu-kun homepage, it was never mentioned on TV. so im pretty contented with 120-130k :) looking forward to 1st/2nd placing! XD

Heee? They must be kidding. O.o 500k for To be free is too much, even when I am quite optimistic.
But I think sales of Ohno´s single will be higher. :)

ninki dows not predict sales, it's not 1 point 1 copy :D
it just predict "how much" is people interested in maybe buying that single^^

[scribblyness-x.livejournal.com]

Guys, these are Ninki predictions, the figures are not actually predicted SALES. It's basically an interest poll of a select group of people (Orion subscribers I believe).

[scribblyness-x.livejournal.com]

I do kind of wish the To be Free first day sales will beat AKB48's sales for Ponytail to Chouchou, just so Arashi can have the record back.

[glos10.livejournal.com]

i don't really think they will XD
I don't think they will beat Monster or Troublemaker first week sales, anyway, it's just one single with a not so strong tie-in with an old cm, and there's only 1 version T_T

[meoinkie2.livejournal.com]

it takes a miracle for that to happen..though seriously, id be overly impressed now if it did manage to beat them xD

Girl, be proud that Arashi do not have to do those lame (and exploitative) gimmicks just to get that in the first day like AKB.

Besides, AKB still didn't beat Arashi in the first week sales or even the total amount of copies sold despite their first day sale... LMAO!

old ninki

[glos10.livejournal.com]

Monster 522.60
troublemaker 451
my girl 411
everything 453
crazy moon 338
believe 359

so as you can see ninki does not predict sales, nor is that accurate coz Everything had a higher ninki than believe, crazy moon and my girl and still was the worse ^^

[ma-i-do-a-ri.livejournal.com]

hmm... acceptable, if not overestimating~ i hope people arent expecting too much, honestly.

kaibutsu-kuh needs more love for sure T.T

i bought both singles xD mostly because i wanted kaibutsu-kun xD madly in love with oh-chans kaibutsu-kun, so i decided while im at it, i can also buy to be free xD

i bope kaibutsu-kun single gets more love, but there is no promo for it at all T.T i wonder why she didnt just include it as a bside or another double a v.v

Errr.....

[(Anonymous)]

I'm honestly not expecting this single to sell that much, unfortunately...

I'm expecting a 300K for the first week and a 400K total at best...

[5ara5.livejournal.com]

well well, I think "To be free" will do same as "Monster" or "Troublemaker", but I'm really expecting too high for "Boku no miteiru fuukei" reallly too too high ^^
