■2008年シングル「初動売上」「累積売上」の2冠達成

　嵐の通算23枚目のシングル「truth／風の向こうへ」が発売1週目（初動）で46.7万枚を売上げ、9/1付シングルランキングでダントツで初登場1位を獲得した。今回の初動売上は、5月発売のKAT-TUN「DON’T U EVER STOP」の38.2万枚を上回る2008年シングル最高記録で、累積売上枚数でもいきなり08年年間2位に躍り出るメガヒット。ちなみに1位も嵐の作品「One Love」（6月発売）で、早くも今年2冠を達成した。

　08年シングルの累積売上枚数のトップも嵐が6月に発売した「One Love」（49.2万枚）で、現時点で08年の「初動売上」「累積売上」のシングル2冠を達成。人気はさらに拍車がかかり、まさに向かうところ敵なしの独走状態となっている。

■デビュー曲「A・RA・SHI」以来、実に8年10ヶ月ぶりの初動40万枚突破

　シングルの初動40万枚突破は、2006年12月発売のKAT-TUN「僕らの街で」（初動41.0万枚）以来、1年9ヶ月ぶり。嵐にとっては、1999年11月のデビューシングル「A・RA・SHI」（55.7万枚）以来、実に8年10ヶ月ぶりとなった。

　同作は彼らにとって実に4年ぶりの両A面シングルで、リーダーの大野智が主演するTBS系ドラマ『魔王』の主題歌「truth」、櫻井翔がメインキャスターを務めた日本テレビ系『北京オリンピック』テーマソングの「風の向こうへ」を収録している。
