SHIPS 2nd Single Diaster
Recently formed idol duo SHIPS 2nd single Kimi ga Iru has sold rather diastrously selling only 790 copies in it’s first two weeks on sale. That’s pretty appaling! I feel bad for the guys as the single isn’t bad at all and has a better PV than their first. I suppose lack of promotion is something to do with the extremely low sales but even then they do appear on Oha Star quite a lot.
The single peaked at #140 in the Oricon Charts for those interested.
New Single for SHIPS (2008-11-26)
Kirarin Revolution duo SHIPS have a new single due out 2008-11-26. I liked their last single and despite their low sales figures I think they deserve another, let’s hope this is promoted a little better and perhaps sells some more copies! The title is currently unknown, I’ll update the release dates page when it becomes known.

Nacchi releases her 9th photobook today, from the previews I’ve seen it looks pretty awesome! I’m also (uncharacteristically) excited about the Kirarin album as it has solo versions of MilkyWay’s single, which means a Kikkawa solo version of Anataboshi! SHIPS single is also on there for those of you who missed it, it was pretty good!
Today’s Releases (2008-06-25)
2008-06-25
- High-King - C/C (Cinderella Complex) (1st Single V)
- SHIPS - TOKYO FRIEND*SHIPS (1st Single)
- Suzuki Airi – ºC-ute Suzuki Airi in Okinawa AIRI’S CLASSIC (DVD)
- Niigaki Risa – Robby to Kerobby Vol.10 (Anime DVD)
Quite a few releases today. Pictured above we have the covers for High-King’s Single V, C\C (Cinderella\Complex) and SHIPS‘ debut single TOKYO FRIEND*SHIPS. I really like both of these singles and as a side note High King’s single ranked at #44 in it’s second week of sales with 2,232 sales making a total of 30,037 sales so far.
Suzuki Airi’s DVD release is an odd one. It features her playing golf basically, her father is a semi-famous golfer I believe so there you go.
Niigaki’s is an anime release of her now defunct Robby to Kerobby, bring back Tsuji I say…~
SHIPS – TOKYO FRIEND*SHIPS PV
The PV to SHIPS debut single can now be seen on Dohhh UP! Surprisingly I really like and am considering buying it.
SHIPS – TOKYO FRIEND☆SHIPS (2008-06-25)
They’re not Hello! Project, they’re not TNX and I don’t think they’re Tsunku produced. However they are related somewhat to Kusumi Koharu as they co-star in Kirarin Revolution and the single they are releasing is under the pseudonym of the characters they play á la Tsukishima Kirari starring Kusumi Koharu (Morning Musume)
SHIPS is composed of Ide Takuya and Kanai Shikou and their first single TOKYO FRIEND*SHIPS will be released under the zetima label on 2008-06-25. The tracklist and additional information will be added to this post as it is available.
I’m not sure I’ll follow this group but reporting on their debut is fine, right?
