"Here are the biggest and best of the oft-forgotten K-pop/J-pop worlds."
Yet the author forgot to include BIG artists (if we go by sales and such) like BoA, Namie (like I said before), Yumi Arai, Mr. Children, B'z, Souther All Stars. If Mr. Children can still push 700k+ units, then they're still BIG. Heck, even Namie can push big numbers and she isn't even mentioned.

Like TeamAyu2004 said, they're just talking about what is "big" now. It's all subjective and one can argue that Ayu is not as big as some of the other stars on the list. Adding Hikki was a good idea because she still is popular, though (she sneezes and Japan goes ape**** over it, like Dragon Quest).
