#27 "STRAIGHT JET" by Minami Kuribayashi (IS OP), 3,048 copies sold. Strong holdover from last week, nice job Minami.
#23 "Houkago Overflow" by Ranka Lee=Megumi Nakajima (Macross F ~Sayonara no Tsubasa~ ED), 3,524 copies sold. Respectable 2nd week drop.
#18 "Be As One" by w-inds. (FAIRY TAIL ED #6), 4,386 copies sold. Huge drop, but not unexpected.
#16 "If" by French Kiss (Kyou, Koi wo Hajimemasu OVA OP), 4,705 copies sold. As expected by anything related to AKB48, songs will linger in the chart for some time.
#8 "Immoralist" by Yui Horie (Dragon Crisis! OP), 14,207 copies sold.
"The song is more in line with Hocchan's Toradora! songs, which is a good thing. Great return to form after that overtly cutesy Kanamemo ED."
#5 "Connect" by ClariS (Puella Magi Madoka Magica OP), 24,574 copies sold.
"A solid follow-up to one of the most enjoyable singles last year. The secretive highschool gals composing this unit has now proven that they're not a one-hit wonder."
