^ you make a lo of really good points there. (:
that post (including the quote.) made me think of how close the title for Top Selling Female is going to be this year!
(between Ayu and Koda that is.)
i have this strong feeling that Ayu's 10th year will be a strong year, sales and popularity wise!

so Ayu has sold around.. 1,550 this year. (A BEST 2 and glitter/fated.)

oooh, it's making me nervous, even though it's soo long away!
