Kiryu's 彩 in 2016 had a massive 21k sales. are they even pulling in a quarter of that in live attendance regularly? (no.) but for my Kiryu shade, they can at least back it up by booking budokan (and supposedly filling it not too badly). Digital I guess yes, but there are surely sites who provide their country sales. However its also nice to know how much Japanese people download legal. But just the real CD, Those we buy on amazon, hmv, CDjapan etc. guess those sales are inside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masato 365 Posted June 25, 2018 2 hours ago, cvltic said: the Kiryu/Royz/Codomo Dragon sales are nuts. i might be totally wrong, but i think their instore fanservice/skills are what leads to these sales? Kiryu and Royz in particular are associated with "extreme eigyou" -- the kind of fanservice where you get "kisses" and hugs/sit in each other's laps for your photos with the members. and even just looking at their schedules, they do like 2-3 instores a week and each requires at minimum a CD purchase for a ticket. the Raid. has also been coming up in sales while their reputation for doing basically anything you ask for photos spreads too, lmao. This is so crazy! Before I quit VK I will take the Kamasutra with me and request photo poses lol lol lol lol Never to go to Japan again. But there are such strong differences between bands.

saishuu 3220 Posted June 25, 2018 It's crazy to compare sales numbers these days to the ones from back when visual kei was popular in Japan. I dug up a link I have bookmarked and it's kinda surreal. It wasn't unusual for bands to come up with 50k or even 100k+ sales. These numbers for singles and albums are really interesting to see. 1 Masato reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
