Really even with Shu-ya's unique hairstyle he's been sporting for years?

Love that pic of Ayu with the tiny skirt! She rocks that wig!

The 2ch source makes me think someone just took the top 20 and added Ayu on as "#50". That's probably not actually where she placed.

It seems this ranking was true

well, sadly we know oricon is basis anyways... sooo..
I wouldnt be surprised that she is up there on the list... or down, lol, kinda depends how you look at it.

Wow, that is kinda bad for Ayu... no matter how you look at it. Sure, one could argue it's based on who's voting and etc. and all the excuses, but look at some of those people above her... Lol. This is a vital point in her career and if she doesn't nail it with these next few releases, she will almost certainly seal her fate on ever making the comeback we all know she is capable of. It's strange to see that this is the reality of the situation regarding Ayu now-a-days. I never thought this day would come!

The only thing really sad about this chart is that Ayu is lower than people who aren't even active at the moment.

Or even lower than people who are clearly less popalar than her ! EVERY LITTLE THING they even can't sell more than 2 K for a single now O_o or Kuraki Mai ?! so strange and sad at same time :(

This is just plain stupid... I mean, she's "legendary"...but why is she being forgotten by Arashi, AKB48 girls or whatsoever??? Really have fans lost trust on her???

Well, I can only assume that this poll is asked by a lot of young people, and they are the ones that are driving the idol groups forward, so it only makes sense.

Mai k higher than Ayu?
I don't even know what to say. Mai k hasn't released a good song in YEARS and she's higher than Ayu.

I wouldn't worry about it at all. Even back when they started this poll in the mid 2000s, Ayu never placed very high at all. Her highest placement ever was like #16 or something in 2005. From what I can see in the rankings that I have found, Oricon Style subscribers are very set in what they like and what they do not like.

Past rankings -
2004 - cannot find/was only in the magazine, Utada Hikaru #1
2005 - #18, aiko #1
2006 - did not appear in the top 10, aiko #1
2007 - did not appear in the top 10, Utada Hikaru #1
2008 - #25, Utada Hikaru #1
2009 - #26, Mr. Children #1
2010 - did not appear in the top 30, ARASHI #1
2011 - did not appear in the top 30, ARASHI #1
2012 - #50, ARASHI #1

Oricon Style subscribers are just not Ayu fans and never have been. Back when Utada was active, she was #1 on the poll a bunch of times. Or maybe that was aiko...

It's sad how many of the artists above Ayumi are embarrassing musically at best.

As I said in the other thread, their rankings are like, always the same. Always the same people.

And actually, I would think Oricon Style subscribers are much older. Older people also like groups like AKB48. It's not always the younger people driving everything forward. Especially if they have kids, and are buying kids the music, then they themselves hear it/start to like it, etc.

Happens a lot.
