Has Ayu beaten Seiko Matsuda's record to have the most consecutive number one singles by a female artist?

You were.../BALLAD is Ayu's 22th consecutive #1 single, right? Exactly how many consecutive #1 singles does Seiko have? o.O (I've heard it somewhere that Seiko has 24 consecutive #1 singles but I'm just unsure)

thanks in advance guys

data from wiki..

Quote:

Seiko used to hold the records for the most number 1 singles and most consecutive number 1 singles on the Japan's Oricon charts. Both were surpassed by B'z. She still had held the record for the most number 1 singles by a female singer until March 2006 when Ayumi Hamasaki's "Startin'/Born to Be..." reached number 1, making it her 26th single to top the charts. Nonetheless she still holds the record of the most consecutive No.1 singles for a female artist, a record that she has been holding for two decades.

^^Not yet. With the release of the 50th single, assuming that gets #1, she will break the record (or tie it, I always forget).

seiko seemed to have 24 consecutive singles starting Kaze wa Aki Irol / Eighteen in 1980 till Tabidachi wa Freesia in 1988

This is a bigger reason I want to see these three singles do really well, aside from them resulting in Ayu's 50th single

so they must plan the release smartly..
release during a week where theres no super popular artistes/band
