At the top of the albums this week lies Sakai Izumi, with the latest posthumous release 'Request Best ~What A Beautiful Memory~' which comfortable outsells the seemingly unstoppable kobukuro. Sakai, who despite her success lived a life shrouded in privacy, tragically passed away last year. She has sold over 40 million records, and was the biggest selling female of the 1990's. The new album contains songs [some live] of what her fans in Japan believed to be her best. Last week's #1 manages to outsell the second highest new entry of the week, tohoshinki 'T'. The Korean boyband managed their first #1 singles last week. Unfortunately, the album doesn't fare quite as well, debuting at #4. In the lower end of the top 10 are four new entries, as well as the biggest selling of 2008 so far, by Exile. It seems they have plenty more in store for the year also.

 

The singles containa surprise at the top. Although ketsumeishi were expecting #1, it seems they have to settle for second place, as RADWIMPS claim the top spot by just under 10k more. Reigning JPop Queen Koda Kumi faires very well with 'Anytime' considering her new album 'Kingdom' is released this week, and looks likely to open to huge numbers, but will it hit a million? Idol group Idoling make a welcome entry in the top 10, and GReeeeN manage a second week in.
