    It's getting cooler and cooler these days. I am considering about
    the preparation for the coming winter. I wonder if I would buy a
    stove or kotatsu.

    Anyways, here's a music chart from the far-east country.

    Topics:

    Mimori Yusa is going to release her latest single "Tokyo No Sora No
    Shita" on 21/Oct, followed by her greatest hits album on 1/Nov. If
    you're in love with Tori Amos, Enya, or Kate Bush, check her out.

    Chisato Morita is planning to release her next album on 18/Nov.

    Chage & Aska, the most successful "TV-drama soundtrack heroes", are
    going to release their new single "No No Darlin'" on 10/Oct, and
    their new album "Guys" on 7/Nov.

    B'z, one of the successful industrial dance music duo in Japan, will
    release their new single "Zero" on 7/Oct and their new album "Run" on
    28/Oct. They say it's filled with hardrock spirits.

    BTW, here's my answers to your questions.
