Girls’ Generation’s latest Japanese single, “Oh!”, earned first place on Oricon’s “10/8 Single Weekly Ranking” chart, selling 66,000 copies since its release on September 26th. In addition, the DVD and Blu-Ray for “Girls’ Generation Complete Video Collection” reached number one on the “Oricon Weekly DVD” and “Oricon Weekly Blu-Ray” charts, with 40,000 DVDs and 19,000 Blu-Ray discs sold.

This is the first time Girls’ Generation earned first place rankings on the single and Blu-Ray charts since their Japanese debut in September 2010. They are the first female artist or group to reach number one on all three charts — Oricon’s Weekly Single, DVD, and Blu-Ray Rankings — in the same week. The only other group to accomplish this same feat was Mr. Children, a Japanese pop rock band formed in 1988. Girls’ Generation was able to achieve this feat even though they are a foreign music group in the Japanese market, making this an even greater accomplishment.

jpopsuki has everything. It's a private tracker though and you have to maintain a ratio, but if you're interested, I can shoot you an invite.

Anyways, grats to the girls!

I fear a Hallyu backlash is imminent:(

But I still expect their album sales to equal those of their last album.

Good for them, but I was under the impression that they weren't facing much competition this week?

There were really no major artists but SNSD releasing singles this week, they were pretty much guaranteed no 1, even at 66k sales.

I was expecting better sales for the single tbqh, but i'm still happy and i hope it keeps selling.

I think releasing the video collection the same day was not the best idea sales wise.

But whatever! i got my copy of the single and video collection so yay!!!

wow, from 100k with Mr Taxi and 92k with Paparazzi to 66k???

this is embarrassing. their sales are falling like crazy.. not to mention overall sales decline: 205,734 (Gee), 172,205 (Mr Taxi), 134,467 (Paparazzi).. what's this gonna sell, like 80k total? I'm so embarrassed for these girls

i think japanese are waiting for the album, ohhh well my daddy`s wallet is ready for SNSD's japanese album in NOV.

how does this make any sense...???

Mr Taxi had their biggest first week sales despite being the last single before their album and coming out a month before the album.

My wallet is ready for the new single and album too!!!! <3

Or they know its extremely overpriced (its more expensive than any of their other singles) and doesn't come with any bonuses. Hence why its doing better digitally.

Or I should say the video is doing very well digitally. The songs are doing ok, both in the top 20. (Oh is top 10, but not top 5; AMLFY is lower, but its been out longer too)


I understand the desire to "defend" snsd (since, despite what everyone thinks 66K is no number to be ashamed of and people are going to come in purpose to say that), but please use/learn the right facts.

how new are you??

the general public isn't gonna buy or care about that overpriced video collection, they would obviously go for the single instead.

Japanese Blu Ray prices are enough to make you cry, there'a recession on for pete's sakes.

you missed the OC point t___t s/he meant general public in Japan isn't that interested in SNSD anymore. let's hope their fandom there is enough.

Still weird to me that they are releasing the J version, like, 2 years, 3 years after the original.

I guess the sales are alittle low but oh they deserve higher sales, All my love is for you is freaking flawless, best Soshi song in ages.

I've read that a new single is imminent in November with a full Album on the 28th. I'm expecting a flawless album tbh.

congrats but the Japanese version of Oh! is horrible... they should have made ALL MY LOVE IS FOR YOU the real A-side.

Not difficult to achieve since they had to real competition, but Yay for their DVD getting number 1 as well! Did Japan have blu ray in 1988?! :O so advanced lol. Didn't KAT-TUN achieve single, album and DVD in the same week in 2006?

He's right though, especially if you hold a record (not saying that snsd is holding a record cause I don't actually know).

I was thinking of Kinki Kids actually, since they hold a world record and all and their sales have been avg in recent years.

I really don't care for them in Japan. Especially with this anemic release of an old ass song.

It's like I'm waiting since forever for their Korean comeback...

That isn't exactly that great for weekly #1 single sales, but congrats for DVD and Blu-ray sales!
