This is great
Love Live getting the attention it deserves. I'll probably buy one of those CDs.

So it sold 20k less than the opening did in its opening week release but because the release week for the ED had less in terms of competition it achieved a higher rank. My question would be how the heck it lost 20k first week sales.

The OP was released during Golden Week, which gave it a big initial boost. OPs almost always sell more than EDs, too. With that said, the numbers will probably even out in the end.

The ED released a day later in the week. Probably would have got 5K more sales if it had the extra day.
The OP has a Mobile Game code for a rare card while the ED didn't come with a Mobile Game code. I think this bonus counts for a lot. It is likely why that crazy guy bought 100 copies of the OP, to get 100 cards for the game; I don't remember anyone buying 100 copies of the ED. Some people instead drop thousands or even millions of yen in the game to get cards.
