I figured that an album with conservative covers and conservative sounding songs would be more of an appeal to the Japanese public, but I supposed her overall image is pretty tarnished these days.
That's what I thought as well.
The covers and songs were safe, so that would equate to better sales.
I also thought that the mini album/maro fiasco also added some nails into the coffin.


Edit: she and xtina both stopped caring about their respective albums right after they were released. only it was ayu that gave up faster...
