Congratulations, 428,000 copies sold is truly unbelievable and this is only for a PV DVD!! Simply astonishing since they were able to break their own sales record, previously #1 was the AAA 2008 DVD. Arashi is going to dominate all three Oricion charts which year, this would be for the single, album and DVD categories.
