There are 4 albums that debuted this week. Without the debuts, it would have been second to Minmi's album. <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v205/mike_s_6/gb/capture8-2.jpg"> The OST dropped to 6th on the 2nd week, but at least it’s on top of Kat-tun.

Recent technology allowing people to download music have generally led to an over-all decline in CD sales all over the world, so I would say that Macross F getting up there is a success parallel to what the Evangelion OSTs achieved.
