EBiDAN’s ‘Yes! Tokyo’ Logs Third Week at No. 1 on Japan Hot 100 as Aimyon’s ‘Marigold’ Returns to Top 10 After Six Years
SixTONES' "Dance Forever" is at No. 2.
EBiDAN's "Yes! Tokyo" maintains its position at No. 1 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100 for a third consecutive week as of Sept. 16. The track, which turned 15 in August, debuted at No. 1 on the Aug. 19 chart and reclaimed the top spot three weeks later on Sept. 9. Although overall points have slightly decreased to 83% of last week's total, the song continues to dominate video views and streaming charts.
Following EBiDAN's hit, the second spot goes to SixTONES' "Dance Forever," the title track of their 18th single, which was released physically on Sept. 9. The album debuted with 430,312 copies, topping sales. M!LK's "Jiku Koete Universe" claims the No. 3 spot, debuting as the lead track from their first mini-album LOVE ENG!NE and the final chapter of a love-themed trilogy. It proved to be the most downloaded track this week, with 15,829 units.
SKE48's "Tameiki Mirai," the title song of their 37th single, enters the top 4. Aimyon's "Marigold," first released in 2018, experiences a significant surge in popularity. The singer-songwriter's signature hit ascends to No. 1 on radio airplay due to buzz around a decade anniversary retrospective video and a full-length acoustic performance on a radio broadcast on Sept. 4. Overall points for the song grew by 275% week-over-week, marking its return to the top 10 for the first time in roughly six years and three months.
Other notable entries include Mrs. GREEN APPLE's "Brand New" at No. 6, =LOVE's "Koi, Hajimemashita" at No. 7, Motoki Ohmori's "Haiiro" at No. 8, M!LK's "Sukisugite Metsu!" at No. 9, and Spitz's "Mishiranu Ito" at No. 10. YAO's "Arifureta Sekai no Hate ni," featuring Awich, CHICO CARLITO, ONE OK ROCK, and Paledusk, starts the year at No. 11, garnering strong sales on both downloads and streaming.
The Billboard Japan Hot 100 combines physical and digital sales, audio streams, radio airplay, video views, and karaoke data to compile the chart for the week of Sept. 7 to 13.
