Considering there is zero advertising for the album, this album is pretty much riding on her dedicated fanbase who seek out info about her. Magazines I don't really count, she just does the same ones every time, and they fall in with who would buy her music anyway.

These sales are not a surprise.
The CM for the album -is- aired pretty often it seems. I know that album CM promotion is pretty insane in Japan since while watching live TV I saw the same CMs like 5 times in a one hour period. I can imagine it's the same for Party Queen. She also has those TV interviews coming up!

We'll just have to see what happens! And they're never gonna stop week picking even when her streak is gone because really, I don't think they'll try to NOT get #1 unless somehow Ayu's sales reach the point of sub-top-10 status.
