Is there anyone else who is releasing a single that could possibly beat Ayu on Oricon?

these 2 might be a threat to her I don't know , especially Himuro Kyosuke as he hasn't released a solo single in 4 years & he's a jrock legend even up to now so yeah I don't know really

Other artistes releasing singles tomorrow include korean band FT ISLAND , visuel kei band The Kiddie , jrock trio BREAKERZ but I don't think they will be that much of a threat
Remember that the Hexagon All Stars - they include that freaking Shuchishin that made Ayu to work much harder to get #1 on her 10th anniversary single in a surprise, while Kyosuke Himuro might be a little threat, maybe... His popularity may be declining a bit there, he's quite slightly older than Ayu...

And in addition to that, we also have to keep an eye out on Arashi's second week sales, because they may be still strong... After all, July is quite "dangerous" for music releases this year, but we still have the holiday season coming up, and first of all, the autumn rush...
