RIIZE's 'II' climbs from No. 31 to No. 1 on Oricon in four weeks

RIIZE's second mini album II hit No. 1 on the Oricon weekly album ranking and the Billboard Japan Top Album Sales chart for June 6–12.

It took four weeks to get there. II first entered the Oricon weekly chart at No. 31 on June 29, then climbed to the top spot in its fourth charting week. Billboard Japan counted approximately 70,000 copies sold during that same period. This marks the second time RIIZE has topped the Oricon weekly album ranking. Their debut mini album RIIZING, released in 2024, was the first.

Domestically, the album moved even faster. Released May 15, II crossed one million copies sold on Hanteo by May 18—just four days later—making it RIIZE's fourth million-seller. It also topped the Circle Chart monthly album chart for June, the Hanteo weekly album chart, and the Melon Global K-pop chart daily ranking.

RIIZE is currently mid-run on their Japan fanmeeting tour RIIZE JAPAN FANMEETING 2026 RPG-RIIZE PLAYING GAME. The tour opened June 10 at Marine Messe Fukuoka Building B. Tokyo National Yoyogi Stadium Gymnasium 1 hosts three performances on June 15 and 16. Kobe World Memorial Hall in Hyogo gets one show each on June 23 and 24. Six performances across three cities total.
