A big week at the top, and an even bigger week further down the board — this chart had one of the wildest climbs we’ve seen in a while.

Marine Takes the Throne on Debut Week

Houshou Marine’s “きゃぴ” enters the chart directly at #1 with 964K weekly views and a strong 6.13% engagement rate, unseating HIMEHINA’s “フランケンシュタインの怪物” — now sitting at #2 after a full week at the top, still pulling 799K views. Given the sheer scale of “きゃぴ”‘s anime-studio production, a #1 debut isn’t a huge shock, but it’s still a decisive one.

Suisei’s “ビビデバ” holds steady at #3 with 584K views, and bbno$’s “1-800” (ft. ironmouse) slips one spot to #4 with 491K. Kanade Otonose’s “You＆合図” rounds out the top five, dropping one spot but still posting a healthy 1.90% engagement rate on 432K views.

The Big New Entries

Kanae’s “アイ” MV lands at #24 with 118K views and an outstanding 11.22% engagement rate — one of the highest on the entire chart, a strong showing for a song that already had months of buildup behind it. Yukihana Lamy’s “Snowlight Stories” debuts even stronger relatively speaking, entering at #40 with 78K views and a massive 12.79% engagement rate. And Nepolabo’s “ひとつになる声” debuts at #64 with 53K views and 13.69% engagement — the highest engagement rate of any new entry this week.

Elsewhere, VOLTACTION’s “マジ！Magic！PEACH！” enters at #11 with 271K views, and 音ノ乃のの’s “Princess Viral” jumps an eye-catching +94 spots into #20 with 127K views.

The Chart’s Wildest Mover — By Far

Nothing else comes close to sasakure.UK’s “Gimme吟味virtuaる最高star!!!!” (feat. Sakura Miko, Shirakami Fubuki, Natsuiro Matsuri, and Houshou Marine), which rocketed +1,657 spots to land at #82 this week with 43K views. That’s an almost unheard-of jump, and with four major hololive names on the same track, it’s easy to see why something pulled a huge wave of renewed attention toward it.

Not far behind in terms of sheer movement, Tokoyami Towa’s “SM4SH IT UP” climbed +190 spots to #48, Kizuna AI’s “AIAIAI” (feat. Yasutaka Nakata) jumped +163 spots to #88, and KMNZ’s “Synchronizer” — their reunion track with Moe Shop — climbed +75 spots to #52 with a solid 4.58% engagement rate.

Steady Climbers Worth Watching

Shirakami Fubuki’s “KINGWORLD” continues its climb from last week, up another +29 spots to #28 with a 3.27% engagement rate — a song that’s clearly still finding new listeners well past its original release. Nepolabo’s “Hyper Jumpin'” also keeps climbing, up +22 spots to #33 with 6.48% engagement, giving the group two songs simultaneously charting from their anniversary week.

Suisei and Marine, Still Everywhere

As usual, Suisei and Marine dominate huge swaths of the board. Suisei has nine tracks charting this week, including a new one — “シュガーラッシュ” with miComet jumping +44 spots to #71. Marine has ten separate entries charting simultaneously between her original-anime catalog and “きゃぴ,” a genuinely rare level of chart saturation for a single artist in one week.
