even if the wota really can shoot missile out from their glowstick .. they definitely can't print money ..
looking at it .. its already amazing enough ...
In 3 weeks they sold more than 2 million CDs ..
and albums cost 2-3 times of singles ..
its like they sold more than 3 million singles in value ..
they still manage to continue to raise the bar for consecutive million 1st week..
My only worries is the Janken single actually ..

That AKB48 managed to sell 1M of any single in the first place is amazing in this day and age. But they now have not only one 1M+ seller, but nine ...
Then there's the fact that they are also selling an album which was released just before this single, and that album is close to 1M now, and albums costs more than singles. So, yeah.
What I hope is that they actually calm down a little with sub-units, and gives more breathing-room for the singles now, so that wallets aren't completely butchered.
It is possible to buy and support to a certain extent, but after that it gets very hard.

Definitely true, I had to sit out this single here, f.ex. Focusing on NMB48 mainly these days (hard enough to buy everything there with the short release cycles... reminds me I need to order the 2nd Challenge48 DVD )
With girls from 3 sub units transferring to foreign countries it is probably a chance for the management to scale the sub unit releases down a bit. Though then you get new solo debuts by Matsui and Takamina. I guess, it balances itself out in the end — and not in favor of our wallets. HKT48 also awaits its debut (they are rather slow compared to NMB48, f.ex. — not sure how long it took for SKE48)
Can I win in the lottery please?
