NEWS’ “Chankapana” tops Oricon weekly chart
After last year’s withdrawal of Yamashita Tomohisa (27) and Nishikido Ryo (27), newly formed group NEWS restarted their activities with the single “Chankapana“.
Sales of “Chankapana” started on July 18th and sold 245,000 copies in its first week, ranking first inOricon’s 7/30 singles ranking. “Chankapana” sold 95,000 more copies in its first week than their previous single “Fighting Man“, which was released before NEWS lost Yamashita and Nishikido. It is also the first time in 3 years for the group to achieve over 200,000 in sales in the first week since “Koi no ABO“ (released in April 2009). This is indeed a good start for NEWS.
NEWS has been topping the singles ranking since its debut with single “Kibou~Yell~“. Including its 5 top-ranking albums, NEWS has had 19 chart-topping works. In the top 3 places for most number of top-selling singles since debut are Kinki Kids (32 singles), KAT-TUN (18 singles) and NEWS (14 singles).
NEWS leader Koyama Keiichiro (28) was especially happy about their long-awaited new single ranking in first place. He addressed NEWS fans and commented, “‘Chankapana’ is a result of our feelings and the feelings of the fans who have been waiting for us. We achieved the best start. When I heard about the ranking, I cried. We will express our thanks through our activities. So ‘let’s fall into beautiful love’ with us!”
Koyama, Kato Shigeaki (25), Masuda Takahisa (26), and Tegoshi Yuya (24) started fresh as the newly-formed NEWS. They will kick off their nationwide tour “NEWS LIVE TOUR 2012 ~Utsukushii Koi ni suruyo~” with a public performance at Chichibunomiya Rugby Stadium. It’s announced that the tour will be held at seven locations in Kobe, Fukuoka, Niigata, Sendai, Hiroshima and Sapporo.
NEWS love is EVERYWHERE. <3
[JUNIORS] 7WEST: Gakki and Shinpei leaving?
I don't know if I'm already late in reacting about this. I just heard this rumor last night and read that the rumors are spreading since last week. I know that these are just rumors and it can be either true or false. But somewhat it made my heart so heavy that I went emotional last night.
The "rumors" say that Shingaki Yuto and Takemoto Shinpei resigned and left Johnny's, left 7WEST. But there is another version saying that Gakkipei only transferred to another unit. These started because of the deletion of their names from TakiCHANnel's J Birthday calendar.
This is still not confirmed though, so I still have high hopes for them. It's just so sad that they left, if they really left. Well, everything is unsure of you're only a junior. You do not know if you will ever debut and have your big break. I think 7WEST has a strong bond. Even though I only see them perform rarely, I think they have the potential to be a debuted group.
It's rare for Kansai Juniors to debut. And the fact that only Kanjani8 is the group that had their debut. And the rest remained as juniors. Maybe some are fine that, a lot of juniors are still there since they entered.
But I'm hoping that Gakki and Shinpei will not leave Johnny's, maybe transferring to a new unit will be fine, but please not totally disappear in the fandom.
NEWS gets 14th No. 1 Single!!
The latest NEWS single “チャンカパーナ (Chankapana)” is the No.1 single of the week, selling more than 245,000 records, reports Oricon.

The last single the six-member group had released was “Fighting Man” in November 2011, which sold 150,000 records. This means the new single has sold almost 100k more records than the last. It is also the group’s first single in three years to exceed sales of 200k in the first week since “恋のABO (Koi no ABO)” in April 2009.
NEWS have had 14 straight No.1 singles since their debut with “希望〜Yell〜 (Kibou ~Yell~)”. They are third behind KinKi Kids and KAT-TUN, who hold the records for most consecutive No.1 singles since debut, with 32 and 18 No.1 singles respectively.
It has been reported NEWS leader Keiichiro Koyama said this No.1 had more meaning than some others.
“‘Chankapana’ is the result of what we have felt, and what all of our fans who have waited all this time for us have felt. This is the greatest start. I couldn’t help but cry when I heard the numbers. I promise to return my thanks in my work. I hope you will have a ‘美しい恋しましょう！(beautiful love)’ with us,” he said.
The four member NEWS are due to start their summer concert tour on August 14 in Tokyo before going around Kobe, Fukuoka, Niigata, Sendai, Hiroshima, and Sapporo. It is their first national tour in three-and-a-half years.
