According to Oricon, AKB48's 36th single "Labrador Retriever" (went on sale on May 21) in which Watanabe Mayu serves as the center, sold 1,462,000 copies on the first day, and topped the daily single ranking.
The single broke the group's own record for the best first day sales which they previously set with "Sayonara Crawl" (released in May 2013, 1,451,000 copies sold on the first day).
This is also their 7th single to sell over a million copies on the first day.
"Labrador Retriever" contains the voting serial number card to the "6th Senbatsu General Election" which is to decide the Senbatsu members for their 37th single (currently untitled, to be released in August).
