It has two versions, huge posters, first press sleeves and four different songs! Wtf?

Off-topic: How did Utada's First Love album become the most sold album ever? It didn't really have any #1 singles lol.

Many artist released single and just reached top 20 but they never stop produce music...

Don't want sound uptight or anything but....ummmm, can you guys not bring Hikki or Kuu into this thread?! There's not really to between the three. They both sale more than Ayu and Ayu gets more #1s. I just don't want another war going on.

Speaking for her #1s, I think the reason she had so many was because AVEX knew when to release her singles against weak competition. EMI just release Hikki stuff just to release her stuff because they know that it'll sale regardless. AVEX does the same for Kuu. Both of them have really been selling well lately. I think if AVEX had released Ayu's singles against real competition, she wouldn't have that #1 streak.

If Ayu loses her #1 streak, I hope most of you don't cry about it. Her reign of #1s would have to fall some time or later. I don't think that Shuchishin knew that they were going to be selling that well. I congratulate them on their success. If they beat Ayu, it'll a disappointment to many but not thme.

@Melrose: lol Hmmm......Movin' On without You was Hikki's only #1 single for that album but she only released 3 singles with one of them being a recut. Automatic sold over 2 million copies while MOWY sold over 1.2 million. So, its a guess that First Love was going to do well.

People place too much importance on charts and sales. Kuu's last two singles haven't even sold 100k and I didn't see the Kuu fans announcing impending doom.

[baoanhnguyen]

i really hope ayu makes it to the top position even if its by like 1 or 2 thousand copies. darn XP. Its her 10th anniversary darn it at least give her this one #1 single. I love her nontheless. everyone has to fade once in a while, but ayu will come back to the top one day. its cause she's awesome! i don't think any other female artist will ever reach ayu's level of success, especially with how sales are going these days.

i think the things made kuu couldnt sell 100k for last 2 singles :
1. too much realese
2.anytime realese a week before kingdom realese

yah what can we do if this single cant get #1?

There are always reasons why a thing doesn't get #1 or selling well but he meant that even so, it's still like that =P

People really should get over the rankings and sales thingy.
Even if I persnoally post and discuss about it, it doesn't mean it's making me think or like stuff (I mainly publish it for the other people who're intersted anyway). If MW won't get #1 I really won't budge, if the sales aren't high it won't make me budge as well (though they are pretty good).
Overall ayu's holding a great number of overall sales that outselling all of the other japanese artists except for 3 boy bands with over 46 millions sales to date, the 2nd female is seiko matsuda with around 40 million or a bit less that barely sell nowadays. If there is something ayu's fans should be happy about that is sales related is ayu's overall total sales the beat all of the others except for those 3 boy bands and it doesn't seem that anyone will take her place soon (Specially not another female artist). ayu already got enough accomplishments for the ayu's fans to be happy about.
The most important thing is the overall and no what's happening is a certain time period.
Just enjoy the music!

Looks like Ayu is going to be #2, because the other band has really steady sales and we all know that Ayu doesn't. At least this single is doing much better than "t2m" and it will probably sell 100,000 copies in the first week.

I won't be bummed if she's #2, I guess. (After all, GUILTY got #2 so we should all expect Ayu to not have the #1 position anymore or at least less often.) It just makes me so sad to see that her 10th anniversary single can't even get #1...

my thoughts exactly

Ayu usually gets a bump in sales on Saturdays, doesn't she?

I think this single has sold 86K already. Go back to the previos page and u should find your answer there.


@ayumisrael: Ugh, again! What is wrong with people caring about sales and charting??? I for one care about. Even if ayu loses her streak, I won't stop liking her. In my book, it's okay for a person to care about an artists sales and charting. I hardly doubt they'll stop liking them just because they didn't do good selling or charting.

True. As fans, I think it's perfectly normal to wish that Ayu does well in charts and in sales. After all, we only wish the best for Ayu.

I do wish this single would do better, even if it is doing pretty well already in terms of sales. But I can't expect it to sell that much. Even if it's her 10th anniversary single. I don't think "Mirrorcle World" was a good a-side choice. I don't think people in Japan are really into that kind of song either.

[v3lun420]

But Luv~Venus~, deep in my heart, I want her not to lose her no.1 streak. Though if she fails to do that she will still be a queen in my heart

[AyuGAME]

looks like the nightmare will come...
the new boysband sales 13k today...and ayu just get 4k...
i need to prepare my mental to find out the fact when weekly sales reveal...

[apple-pi]

Wow, I'm shocked XD It seems that boyband will be taking #1... well, it's kind of sad, but at least it's selling more than T2M. I mean, she might not get #1, but it's not because she lost a whole bunch of popularity ever since her last single. It's just because of unexpected competition...That "Shuchishin" (is that what they're called?) will probably be forgotten soon~ at least I think so. I don't mean to bash them, but I seriously don't understand how they're managing to sell like that XD

You mean Matustoya Yuming?

[CHAS_AYU]

I really hope Mirrorcle World can get #1 in this week.
It's a good single
