Oricon rankings
Both Kamiya Hiroshi’s For myself and Ono Daisuke’s Netsuretsu ANSWER singles have been ranked on Oricon’s charts.
On the day of its release, For myself ranked #4 on the singles daily chart, and then moved up to #3 the next day. On the singles weekly chart, it ranked at #6 with 18,517 copies sold. To get into the top 10 is a huge feat. At the For myself release commemoration event on the 26th, it was announced that Kamiya’s second single will be released April 6th, 2011 and be titled Nijiiro Chouchou.
On the other hand, OnoD’s Netsuretsu ANSWER debuted at #4 on the singles daily chart on the day of its release and climbed up all the way to #2. On the weekly chart, it ranked in at #5 with an estimated 10,205 copies sold. WOW! Kamiya’s For myself dropped down to #29 the same week.
Note that For myself had over one week to accumulate its sales on the weekly chart, whereas Netsuretsu ANSWER had only about a week. Netsuretsu ANSWER is the ending theme to the Battle Spirits Brave anime, which probably gives it more exposure compared to For myself. Nevertheless, both Kamiya and OnoD were able to get their singles in the top 10 of Oricon’s singles weekly chart! Congratulations to them both!
