At least her single sales are not bad to a point that it will go around 20k-ish which in my opinion is good enough for a single already

^ Yeahh but if her single sales keep declining like its doing right now, she will get to the 20k mark which is sad because Ai is a REALLY good artist who IMO deserves better D= ~!

Even though you can barely see Ai's face, those pics look really cute.

Ouch for Rocket Snaker / One Time sales but then again, it's not like it deserves amazing sales...I really think she should take that break to get the creative juices flowing. People seem to be releasing so much this year and while it's good to have new songs, I would prefer them to release less often with better quality.

Like Utada Hikaru, right? (I can't wait to see what she comes up with next!)

Anyhow, I hope Avex doesn't pull a BoA and devote less time and effort to Ai. She's got potential, she just needs to use it the right way.

Like someone said before, she pretty much already did take a break. It's been like 6 months (or something) since Pocket.

The single sucked.

Realllly bad.

Both songs sounded really dated and terrible, bland, and boring.
To make it worse, the songs sounded really similar.

Although Sora to Kujira was great. That should have been an a-side, seriouslyyy.

it should have been Rocket Sneakers/Sora to Kujira and one x time should have been the b-side.

Yeah. Ai is losing her touch.

The last good song she made, in my opinion, other than Sora to Kujira, was Kumuri Uta and other songs from LOVE PiECE.

^ I think Rocket Sneaker is pretty good. The arrangement is really engaging and she actually tried something new other than another PEACH/SMILY/Frienger/CHU-LIP type thing. I'm so over those songs. I hope she continues in this direction, and then I won't have to get frustrated and call her annoying every time she releases a song where she tries to be really happy and squeaks all over the place. Seriously.

I miss the less squeaky days of LOVE PUNCH and LOVE JAM. :'(

Anyways, with that said, One x Time was like HEART 2 or something and I thought sora to kujira was boring. And I don't think it would have passed as an A-side whether I liked it or not, because it's a really simple song.

^ LOL OMGOSH I sooo agree with One x Time being HEART 2 XD I still like the PEACH/SMILY/FRIENGER/CHU-LIP type song XD ~! But I have to agree with you, what happened to the Love Punch Days =( ~! Shouldn't forget about her good past stuff xD ~!

Ehh I think ur definitely overexaggerating when you say that the single sucked Zachery. I think it was ok ~ Rocket Sneakers was pretty good to me and Sora to kujira was above average. One x Time was definitely undeserving of being the A-side XD ~!
