Creepy Nuts’ “Bling-Bang-Bang-Born” continues to rule the Billboard Japan Hot 100 on the chart dated March 27, logging its ninth consecutive week atop the tally.
The MASHLE Season 2 opener is now the record-holder for second most consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the multi-metric Japan song chart, passing Official HIGE DANdism’s “Subtitle” and steadily closing in on YOASOBI’s “Idol” (21 weeks). While slowing down slightly in some — downloads by about 10.8%, streaming by about 7.6% — the duo’s long-running hit continues to rule the latter metric plus video views and karaoke this week.
Travis Japan’s “T.G.I. Friday Night” debuts at No. 2. Two versions of the boy band’s latest track — one with Japanese and the other with English lyrics — dropped digitally March 18 and logged 75,135 downloads to hit No. 1 for the metric. The track also comes in at No. 43 for streaming and No. 35 for video views.
Shooting to No. 3 this week is “YURA YURA” by ZEROBASEONE. The Japan-debut single by the nine-member boy band assembled from the audition program BOYS PLANET jumps 47-3 after being released March 20, hitting No. 1 for sales with 516,721 copies sold in its first week. The track comes in at No. 79 for streaming and No. 93 for downloads.
Fujii Kaze’s “Michi Teyu Ku (Overflowing)” rises 8-5 after debuting on the chart last week. The movie April Come She Will opened in domestic theaters March 22, and its theme song rises 20-4 for streaming with 8,843,750 weekly streams (up by about 117.4%). The track rules radio airplay this week (up from No. 12) and comes in at No. 6 for downloads (5,390 units) and No. 4 for video.
The Billboard Japan Hot 100 combines physical and digital sales, audio streams, radio airplay, video views and karaoke data.
