AceShowbiz - The Japanese boy band INI has achieved another milestone with their single All 4 U reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100 chart dated April 29.

The track serves as the lead single from INI's eighth single release, PULSE, which impressively sold 725,113 copies in its first week. This massive sales volume secured the top spot for physical sales and also earned All 4 U No. 1 positions in downloads, No. 3 in radio airplay, and No. 75 in streaming for the week.

This achievement marks the sixth time INI has claimed the No. 1 spot on the Japan song chart, joining their previous chart-toppers: "CALL 119," "Password," "LOUD," "WMDA (Where My Drums At)," and "Present."

Meanwhile, the band Mrs. GREEN APPLE is making a strong impact with their song Kaze to Machi rising one position to No. 2 on the same chart. The track is the theme song for NHK’s morning drama series Kaze, Kaoru and currently holds No. 1 in radio airplay, No. 2 in downloads, and No. 7 in streaming.

Radio airplay points for Kaze to Machi surged by an impressive 386% week-over-week, contributing significantly to its climb. The song’s official music video is scheduled to premiere on April 29 at 9 p.m., an event expected to further boost the track’s chart performance in the upcoming weeks.

Additionally, Mrs. GREEN APPLE’s earlier hit "StaRt" re-entered the chart at No. 85. This song, originally from their 2015 major label debut mini-album Variety, was performed live by the three-member band on the April 13 episode of TV Mrs., a program hosted by the group themselves.

At No. 3 on the chart is CANDY TUNE’s "HAPPY BOUNCE BIRTHDAY," which debuted with 171,762 copies sold, securing the No. 2 position in sales. The track is from the group’s third single release.

Following closely at No. 4 is M!LK with their song "Bakuretsu Aishiteru," which remains No. 1 in streaming for the sixth consecutive week. The song also ranks No. 12 in sales, No. 16 in downloads, No. 3 in video views, No. 11 in karaoke, and No. 76 in radio airplay.

At No. 5 is "Sukisugite Metsu!" by a rising five-member boy band, climbing one spot compared to the previous week. This track continues to perform strongly on the karaoke chart, marking its seventh No. 1 position on that metric, including six consecutive weeks at the top.
