Not surprised. Ends up barely getting the top five, with four male artists ahead of Ayu; Kis-My-Ft2, as we know, took #1 because, well you guessed it, "Johnny's (almost) always get #1." It seems I do agree about her longevity in the J-pop market, the lack of interest today, and the "diminishing results" after peak... Times have surely changed...

But two guys are actually older than Ayu! Why is that, really? And this:

Twitterが荒れてると思ったら… 残念です。。 思ってもない。言ってもないのに こんな記事が出て本当に悲しいです…。。(>_<) 浜崎あゆみさんのファンの皆さんご迷惑おかけしました。でも私の言葉ではありません(*_*)

It seems that Tokyo Sports & Yahoo Japan misreported Tomomi had declared a 'war' against Ayu and she was frustrated because her album couldn't outsell Ayu. Tomomi explained through her latest tweet saying that she never said such thing and felt sad.

What a FAILURE. So apparently a couple of tabloid newspapers "speculated" that Tomochin declared a war against Ayu, but denied those rumors? Well, I kind of agree about Tomochin being said - she never said such thing? She said that it was a coincidence that Tomochin released an album on the same day as Ayu? Hmm...
