A little reminder from Captain Groovy.

Now that Jesus has been released to the public, If you're planning on purchasing the single,  consider buying it from a Japan based store, such as Amazon JP or CDJapan! Both sites ship internationally and are easy to shop in English.

Why?

Because only sales from stores based in Japan will be counted in the Oricon sales chart.  Oricon runs the Japanese version of the Billboard polls in the states.

Jesus currently sits at No. 6 in the charts! So why not support Gacktjob and contribute to the sales list!  Maybe that single can sneak a little higher. ^_-

A little side note: Despite popular belief, sales from YesAsain do not contribute to the Oricon charts. They are a Hong Kong based company.

Thank you very much for this info. :)

I still have to order Jesus and a calendar as well, so I'll definitely keep this in mind. As I have a gift certificate for Amazon that's probably where I'll head ^^

Good to know, I usually just buy from whoever has it cheapest^^

How about HMV, don't they contribute to Oricon?
