1830m ( Sen Happyaku Sanj? M?toru , "One Thousand Eight Hundred Thirty Meters") is the second album by the Japanese female idol group AKB48 . It is a double-album release and was released in Japan on August 15, 2012 [2] by King Records . It sold 1,051,000 copies. [3]

Album information [ edit ]

The title 1830m reflects the distance from AKB48 Theater in Akihabara to Tokyo Dome , [4] an indoor baseball stadium with over-50,000 capacity where AKB48 had performed for the first time, from August 24 to 26, 2012. It was released in two editions, a regular edition in a special box with a 48-page photobook, a bonus DVD, and a random photo, and a theater edition with 14 alternate covers, a handshake event ticket, and a photo of an AKB48/SKE48/NMB48/HKT48 member chosen at random.

This is the last album to feature Team A member and the group's ace Atsuko Maeda .

Reception [ edit ]

The album debuted at number one in the Oricon weekly album charts. In August 2012, the album was certified Million by the Recording Industry Association of Japan . [5]
