^Well, it's impossible for both A BEST 2 albums to be #1, so I don't think anyone was bothered at all. Lol XD
I think I'm not that bothered by GUILTY not reaching #1 anymore. I mean... the sales are good, it's not like the album was badly received, and it's not like Ayu suddenly lost a bunch of popularity, it was totally random. Bad luck. She lost her album streak, but oh well... life goes on XD So yeah, I think I've accepted it already.
Oh, but I have to agree T2M wasn't really a hit... they are good sales, but very "average" for Ayu's case. Like *Petit* said, Ayu has a strong fanbase, and they'll probably buy anything she releases, except maybe in case it totally sucks. I think you have to take the rest of the potential buyers in account when saying whether it was a hit or not. For some unknown artists, selling 50k means a lot, but I don't think that applies in this case...
