Wrong place to advertise as well - Ayu doesn't really appeal to Japanese teenagers of twentysomethings that live in Shibuya. Kinda weird how its the exact opposite when it comes to her western fans. Shibuya advertising would still work, but avex used to hit up other areas of Tokyo as well.

Any photos of those billboards around?

I do believe its in one of the threads about the LOVE mini...

^I agree, Avex seriously needs to think about her marketing tactics.

I'd like to see photos as well!

im looking for it...
the search isnt working (shock i know)

But I did find a CM

i miss when ayu cover was everywhere
the trucks billboards poster in station

^ wow that poster is so huge!!
that's so cool!

That photo wasn't even taken in Japan, unfortunately. I can tell by the wording on the poster, and the other ads beside it.

You're right, Ayu's name is written in Chinese on the pic, and there's stuff written in Chinese above Ayu's ad.

#4 today :(

ME. TOO. LOVEppears to I am... era anyone?

Wow... She's #4 and the #3 (Arashi) sold 9,753 copies. :(
Well I guess we can consider it as an expensive double A-Side single ? In this case the sales aren't too bad ! :laugh

i don't think i can name 5 lol but whoever they are, ayu's still selling pretty well for an artist who is ten years over from her prime. wait for another 10 years and i'm sure her name is still charting (if ever she's still releasing music at the time).

I didnt even notice that!!
good eye!

It makes me wonder if she is still a power seller in the rest of asia?

Not really even in taiwan she don't sell like she used to be I remember on the G music charts (taiwan) she dominated all the japanese release like 50% + but since 2011 she is at 10% maybe ...

^ well, isn't 10% of all japanese sales still a lot?
She may not be a huge seller like she used too, but it still seems like a lot over seas...

Oh yes yes it still good ^^
Love is number 2 in g music chart with 8%

^ oh, cool, thanks for the link...
you know who is number 1?

It's nice to see her popular in other countries.
I wonder how she does in the rest of the world?
