Oh my God,so little number.
It seems hard to reach 300k.

truehappiness 13th March 2006 12:39 PM

...the week isn't even done yet xD

Maiku 13th March 2006 12:41 PM

kinda low :( did you guys see the sales for koda kumi? almost a million on the first week

iphis 13th March 2006 12:43 PM

i am sad about that

although Ayu is making records,but the selling is falling down all the time
first the album,than the single

what can i say? her music is so good ~~why people stop loving it?

btw: Kumi's ablum sells more than 900.000 in the 1st week,while ayu's still hasnt reach 900,000 after 10 weeks

i wanna cry

truehappiness 13th March 2006 12:44 PM

Remember.

Best album.

12 weeks of consecutive hype.

And sex PVs [majority!].

Obviously, avex has chosen someone who will sell a LOT. But what will happen after this? :\

Qt Mashi 13th March 2006 12:44 PM

i think it's quite low, even lower than forgiveness :O

anyways grats to Ayu for having the weekly number 1!

oricon gives out early numbers once monday in japan is over. margin of error btwn these numbers and final numbers: +/- 1,000 copies (so not that significant)

983k is still a lot. just admit that shes popular. this number is even better than hikki's BEST album. n o yea, name 7 of the 12 PVs that are 'sex PVs'.

truehappiness 13th March 2006 12:49 PM

And in Koda's case its probably like 20k >>

/cough ;_;

no these are the final numbers their week begins/ends on mondays but they don't publish it until wednesdays that's all.

on the other hand, who cares about the sales?? Ayu is dominating every single category! It's going to be a looooooong time before anyone breaks her record, if ever.

truehappiness 13th March 2006 12:56 PM

Well to sell 980k in a week kind of says how many she sells in a day... :\

no. wut i meant in 'final' numbers is that this single wont sell bang on 116,000. it will be like 115,952 or 116,325. those r wut i call the 'final' numbers. the 116,000 wut i call 'early' numbers.

mostly cause all her lives seem the same and her image hardly has anything new

again dont compare Best album sales to original album sales as i see you doing that with M.U and koda kumi New Best album -_- why dont you try and compare this Best album to Ayumi A Best? yes i admit kumi is popular but will she ever break the Rocords that ayumi has set? the awnser mostly NO!!

she can always Fade away after this a good example orange range they outsold ayumi at a time but did they set records? the awnser is no
