Oricon recently released their mid year album sales ranking for 2009 and TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki did better than most expected. “The Secret Code” came in at number 10 with a sales figure of 248,000 for the first half of 2009. This placed them above popular artists such as KAT-TUN who had 237,000 sales for "Break the Records -by you & for you-" and Utada who had 228,000 sales for "This is The One." BoA who released a combo "Best Album and American Debut album" was ranked 25th with a sales figure of 131,000.


Here are the Top 10 sales figures:
1. Mr Children - "Supermarket Fantasy" (1.2 million)
2. Exile - "Exile Ballad Best" (807k)
3. Dreams Come True - "Do Your Dreams come true?" (632k)
4. Remioromen - "Remio Best" (471k)
5. Ikimono-Gakari - "My Song Your Song" (404k)
6. Koda Kumi - "Trick" (385k)
7. Ayumi - "Next Level" (363k)
8. RADWIMPS - "Arutokorni no Teiri" (314k)
9. Unicorn - "Shamble" (250k)
10. TVXQ / Tohoshinki - "The Secret Code" (248k)

TRICK was overall a good album, but NEXT LEVEL pwns. ♥ didn't know RADWIMPS had so good sales o_o and Ikimonogakari's album sucks.

fourth-ing. TRICK had to grow on me, and i only really liked it after i turned it into a mini album without the ballads or songs that were kinda lame. NEXT LEVEL was consistent and solid all the way through.

i think TRICK was better than NL ... Ayu has had way better albums already so i wasn't particularly happy about this year's one =/

I dunno, I feel like DBSK has this unexplained sexy/untouchable/fierce aura, and when they have pictures like that, I swear it just radiates off my screen.

Or maybe it's just my period talking..

The Secret Code has been out for a month longer than KAT-TUN's album.

I didn't really like either album other than the singles.

for kuu and ayu, i'd go with the following:

kuu:
- black cherry
- best ~second session~

ayu:
- RAINBOW
- GUILTY

as for songs,

kuu - Under, Amai Wana, and BUT. For a ballad go for Yume no Uta or Moon Crying.

ayu - I am..., talkin' 2 myself, and Mirrorcle World. For a ballad go for HANABI or forgiveness.
