This Is The One album is standing 3rd in Oricon album chart now.
However, almost Japanese can't understand English well. Her new album won't be good sells in Japan. She has considerably squeezed the target to the United States this time. I wanna support her challenge in the oher hometown, United States. I feel that she hope to be accepted in the US.

Don't know about in Japan but on the Itunes US store it's currently at Number 5 on the pop chart, and number 26 overall.

That's better than I'd expected to be honest - I'm just glad it's doing as well as she deserves it to.

Of course, the true test is after the first day. Can it keep the momentum up after the initial release day rush?

I hope so xxx

Well, English language albums do not sell in Japan...
Exodus did well only because it was her first try.

I have a friend who is an Utada fan(I'm only an occational fan),
but she wasn't interested in Exodus because she doesn't understand English at all.

Japanese fans seem to make a clear distinction between an EMI Japan artist
宇多田ヒカル and an Island Def Jam artist Utada.

Normally, if a foreign artist sell more than 100,000 copies of an album,
it's considered to be a big success. Considering that, TITO is doing
really well IMO. I really don't understand people who are saying
things like TITO isn't doing well in Japan 'cos it is doing well.
