Difference Between the Hot 100 and Artist 100

The artist rankings are based on the individual Artist 100 page. King & Prince ranked No. 82 on this chart the previous week. This week, the group rose to No. 1. This result cannot be explained solely by the performance of So Honey.

Points to Watch

This week, both changes in ranking and changes in points need to be considered. The two values do not always move in the same direction. The following week’s performance of the new entries has also not yet been determined.

• Increase in EBiDAN’s points: The total rose from 7,068 points the previous week to 9,993 points. The increase was 2,925 points. Based on the displayed values, the increase rate was approximately 41.4%.
• Spitz’s ranking and points: Mishiranu Ito fell from No. 9 to No. 10. Its points increased from 3,671 to 3,848. A song’s relative ranking can fall even when its score rises.
• Sharp rise outside the top 10: Sakanaction’s (サカナクション) Kaiju (怪獣) rose from No. 97 to No. 11. The official commentary attributed the rise to the release of the CD single.

The point comparison was calculated using the values displayed on the chart released on September 2 and this week’s chart. The explanation regarding Sakanaction’s release follows the September 9 commentary.

Errors Caused by Misreading Dates and Blank Fields

When citing charts, the meanings of dates and blank fields must be preserved. Displays may differ even within the same official website. This week, differences in dates and descriptions can in fact be confirmed.

The date differences can be confirmed on the official chart hub. For the change in download ranking, the individual ranking table was given priority. This article did not arbitrarily correct the difference.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the popularity ranking for September 9 alone?

No. It is a weekly chart tracking performance from August 31 to September 6. September 9 is the release date.

Are all new entries newly released songs?

A new entry means that the song appeared on the relevant chart for the first time. A song’s release date and first chart-entry date must be distinguished. The release date cannot be determined solely from its weeks on chart.

Does 10 weeks on chart mean 10 consecutive weeks?

Consecutive charting cannot be established from the cumulative weeks on chart alone. Weekly history is needed to determine whether the song dropped out of the rankings in between. Previous editions must be checked to confirm a consecutive record.

Why is the streaming No. 1 not the overall No. 1?

The Hot 100 reflects metrics other than streaming. This week’s streaming No. 1 is Brand New. The overall No. 1 is Yes! Tokyo.

Can a song fall in ranking even if its points rise?

Yes. Mishiranu Ito is an example this week. This is because ranking represents a song’s relative position compared with other songs.

Can the number of listeners be calculated from Hot 100 points?

No. Overall points are converted from multiple metrics. The number of streaming plays also differs from the number of unique listeners.
