I can't remember exactly the numbers. But the first day index of TABOO was around 22K to 24K. THEN, it dropped below 4K the next day. That was a big shock for kuu fans and the general public (me?

), cuz I didn't expect a 80% drop on index between the first and second days.

We can't really compare D/G sales pattern with R/S:
- Days is a Christmas ballad, easier to be accepted by the general public;
- Ayu did perform Days at least 5 - 7 times on TV
- The digital download chart shows Days did have a better reception (it stayed on no. 1 for a week and top 5 for at least 3 three weeks).
- Rule barely has promotion. She doesn't sing live this time, and some people pointed out that the cm isn't shown that often.
- R/S is released a month before NEXT LEVEL. This will affect R/S sales for sure.
Of course,
- Rule is Dragonball theme, so it may help boosting up the sales.
- The Japanese thinks Rule is a good song (I dunno... I just know from Sunshine and the others that the Japanese dun like Sparkle that much).
I can't even guess how good/bad this single sales will be. We can get a better prediction by the time the second day index is out. I kinda think the second day index... If it's good enough, it will be around 7K - 9K. Or maybe it will sell like crap (3 - 5K index)...
