@SunshineSlayer - Bold&Delicious NINKI was better than all of the ones I posted and it sold terribly, but yeah I agree that considering everything this isn't bad. As for Ayu and AVEX not promoting the single - I am really starting to doubt they'll do much, but will instead concentrate to promoting the album.

But if they are really focusing on promoting the album, there should at least be some magazines that are known by now don't you think? Unless they really aren't planning on promoting the album until AFTER it has come out. Also interesting, is that they have apparently filmed at least up until the March 10th episode of Heyx3 (Arashi is going to be on it and fans reported about their appearance) Heyx3 audience is always made up of fan club members, which is how the Japanese Ayu fan sites usually know her tv schedule before Avex posts it. Anyways, so unless they film a last minute segment or something and add her in to one of the episodes, she likely will not be on Heyx3 for at least another couple of weeks. Just really weird considering Ayu's history of promoting on TV imo.
The Bold&Delicious thing is interesting/scary. It was released just a month before her album too and it sold poorly despite the fact that they actually promoted it a lot. Although B&d was very experimental, it still isn't really a good sign for Rule.

I really wonder though about how much DBE is actually being promoted there. I barely hear anything about it in America and I heard even less about it when I was in Japan last week.
Anyways, if you haven't noticed, I'm worried about this single. haha.

The only good thing going for it is that it is being released at a time without much competition.
