Encountered you... changed me...

RIAJ released the digital certifications for the month of April today and to our pleasure, Janne Da Arc's Rainy ~Ai no Shirabe~ and Acid Black Cherry's Nemurihime are certified Gold (more than 100,000 paid downloads)!

Before, Janne Da Arc's Gekkouka and Acid Black Cherry's Aishitenai were also certified Gold in the month of June, 2011.

Congratulation, Janne Da Arc!

RIAJ released the paid download certifications for the month of June yesterday.

Good news, Janne Da Arc's Gekkouka and Acid Black Cherry's Aishitenai are certified Gold (more than 100,000 paid downloads)!

Gekkouka had sold more than 350k of physical CDs the last time I checked, which was years ago (I'm sure it has already sold more than that).
During Gekkouka time (2005), digital singles were not as famous as today; most people would normally buy the physical singles. You can see above that Gekkouka digital release date was 2009/05/19 (4 years after it was released physically).

However, I've been seeing both Gekkouka and Aishitenai keep re-entering the recochoku (Japan's biggest digital store) chaku-uta full chart the past couple of months like a boss, they got in all they please and got out all they please, LOL.
So, I can't say I'm that surprised to find these certifications at RIAJ website.
Still, this deserves congratulatory pats.

Congratulation!

As most of you already know, as I tweeted 3 days ago over my twitter, Janne Da Arc members have come together to show their support, care and love for the Great Tohoku Earthquake victims, Japan and the world through a video comment which can be found at Janne Da Arc official websites or Acid Black Cherry official websites.


For those who are familiar with my marchlavender LJ, I love to pimp entries from Omppu3Tokiossa blog over there from time to time.
This lovely Omppu has translated the video comment in full.
You can go to her entry here to read the translation.


Keep on praying for Japan!
Stay strong dear Japan!
