Rule/Sparkle was not only a new single, it was a remix single as well with 3 versions. Only the CD+DVD version is not a good buy, while the other two are. Having GREEN/Days Orch versions? With 4 new remixes? Besides, Taboo was a 1 single side, same as Stay with me... so if you combine their sales, they beat out Rule/Sparkle. Kuu is not a singles artist anyways. She had some hits, but it's mostly her albums that sells the most.

Also, I wonder why think the DBZ movie is to promote the album as well. Doesn't it promote the single more? The first press had a pic of Ayu from the artist.
