As one of the most successful artists not only in Japan but the world, B'z have amassed a number of records, awards, and accolades over their career that has spanned decades. Since the latter half of 1990, the band has amassed an unprecedented series of consecutive number one singles and albums. With over 80,000,000 records sold, they remain Japan's top-selling music act of all time and hold more records than any other artist. Among their accomplishments are having the most singles sold, the most albums sold, the most number one singles, and the most music home videos sold, which regularly topped the charts of all home videos of any sort for a given year.

Please Note: All certifications and sales figures, unless otherwise noted, refer to physical copies sold only. Digital sales figures are rarely available for most Japanese artists.
