Oricon 2008 sales chart

Well the Oricon (the Japanese equivalent of the U.S. Billboards) has ended and like usual Johnny's dominated the singles chart. In fact Arashi has the number 1 and 2 spot which only four other artists have done, one of them being the daisenpai group Hikaru Genji. The album chart is another matter all together as most Johnny's get greater single sales than album sales.

Here is the list of all the Johnny's with the place and sales numbers for those in the top 200 for singles and albums of 2008.
