They don't seem TOO bad. At least it's not like Shuchishin, where they almost took her out. I think it'll be good competition, but they shouldn't outsell her.

Although after researching this group, I think they'll be TOUGH competition.

Yeah, I think people are underestimating them. Ayu is the most likely to get #1 even with the lack of promotion, but I'm not going to quickly count out flumpool either - they are definitely a group on the verge of breaking out, sort of like Shuchushin that came out of nowhere. (although at least this time, the group is much better.) They are totally a wildcard because this is actually their first physical single release, but they had two extremely strong digital singles before this and a mini album that did better than people were expecting.
