Ah, that's pretty much how I feel about it. Though I wonder if someone'll just say: "Oh, but Seiko deserved every single one of her number ones without scheduling things around others. HMPH. Why can't Ayu fail yet!?!?!?"

No other female singer is even CLOSE to where Ayu/Seiko are right now. I'd like to see Ayu overtake Seiko... even if the single after ends up at #2, haha. [She better pull out a 3A/4A to avoid that though.]
