This isn't really a rumor, but I'm supposing that Ayu will announce a new single this week or next week.
The reason being that she can only get a #1 if she is scheduled for 8/13 or 8/20 due to a lack of extreme competition from Southern All Stars, Mr. Children, or Johnny's.

Seeing as how she announced the last two singles withing a month of release, it's logical to assume that she might announce it a month before this time too.
