excuse me to give a thought about this case...
first of all i would say congrats for BoA that she has regain more popularity than before. But i don't think that her carier will be more than this point. It's really hard to maintain 3 countries carier (japan, korea and now china) BoA can't concentrate with what she will be doing for her next step. and looks of her sales its not really great compare to ayu...
i know that japanese music industry is really weak this day because of piracy and downloading. But ayu sales still above 1 million copies marks. It's really great for her to do that in this point of her carier... but looks BoA her sales is under ayu "my story" although its her best album...so i dont think that BoA will be a next jpop queen. Her nationality is korean and i don't think japanese like their queen from the other country, right?
i appreciate BoA job, she really working hard for her carier... but her music, her performance and her fashion is not really great like ayu does before. So... ayu will be still the queen of jpop for this century i think..

n.b : "From what i know, ayu "A-best" sold 5.4 million copies... it was from oricon source i think
