This is just amazing! Finally, NICE GIRL Project! can rule over Hello!Project at least in photo book popularity. One amazing strike in June 09 with Akiyama Yurika (秋山ゆりか) or so called Akkyan, an ace from NGP lead group, The Possible, first solo photobook “Akkyan Be” hit the #1 Position and leaving Airi’s “Pure Blue” in the dust at #5 position and over powered Berryz’ “Allo Hello Berryz” at #3. Later, another consecutive release solo photo book from NGP, Ogawa Mana’s “Namamana” rushed to the top position in July 09 sales and made Michishige Sayumi’s “20’s time” only a runner up and Kumai Yurina’s “Flowerage” just in the #3 position.
Two strikes in a row, FANTASTIC!!! If you follow NICE GIRL Project’s or Canary Club’s or The Possible’s official blog, you’ll know that they puts more aggressive selling event from those two photo book. Good job Tsunku, at least one of your aim created NGP to make a fair competition against H!P and win was full filled.
