KAT-TUN’s 9th single, “ONE DROP,” led the charts this week with 281,000 in sales. This gave them their ninth consecutive #1, extending back to their debut single. This is currently the third longest such streak, behind NEWS (10) and KinKi Kids (28).

At #2 was girl band Stereopony, with 31,000 copies of their second single, “Namida no Mukou,” which is being used as the theme song of “Mobile Suit Gundam 00.” This is their first time in the top ten. Also in the top ten this week were The Gospellers at #5 and Salyu at #10.

Meanwhile, Thelma Aoyama came out on top of the album charts, selling 45,000 copies of “LOVE! ~THELMA LOVESONG COLLECTION~.” Although she has had a #1 single before, this is her first #1 album.

Lil'B was not far behind at #2 with their first album, “Ima, Kimi e.” AAA, Straightener, and Buono! also made the top ten with their latest albums.
