Better this way. ayufans will do their thing.


Also, it makes things more interesting!! I was falling asleep until today!! can't wait to see the outcome next week

I love ayu & kuu so, good luck to both of them!

^^Well, kuu is not that bad, and your comment can apply to ayu as well (for those who hate ayu). The thing is, in avex's view, kuu will not die if she doesn't get no. 1 since she doesn't have that damn "no. 1 streak" to hold on. (Of course it'll be a bonus for kuu if she gets no. 1). On the other hand, everyone (who concerns about artists' no. 1 streaks) is having their eyes on the chart, to see whether ayu will be able to hold and break the record for the next two weeks. Ayu does need the no.1 to survive somehow.

If ayu couldn't get #1 next week, avex just wouldn't release kuu's single obviously.
They are on the same company so avex obviously know what they are doing =P

Heh ! her index keeps going down but i don't care this chart ! hope she'll do good on Oricon!

[bluegie]

oh actually i dun really care about this chart as much as I used to. Back then it might be able to predict ayu's sales. But after Secret or so, it is just not good for predictions anymore..

We have the same thought... but to tell you the truth... somehow deep in my mind, I'm kinda afraid to see how we will react if kuu gets no. 1 on the first day (touch wood... I dun wanna see that happens...). I'm sure avex will do something, at the same time AHS will be in chaos...

[Polyrhythm]

Suki de x3 is the superior single for me but I'm sure it will chart at #2 or below. Well...she COULD get #1 daily....and then...if there's any threat Avex just has to ship less for the rest of the week....and if Kumi publicly opposes it or anything....it'll be like the JYJ situation where they will probably turn on her. Sad world.

[Mirrorcle Monster]

In my opinion crossroad is sooooooooo much better than Suki dex3...it deserves to get the number 1

I dun think kuu will do anything at all. I bet she has known about the circumstance since the beginning, and if she really gets a single day no. 1, it'll be a big compliment for her.

Me too.
crossroad is awesome and melancholic ballads for me always win typical ones.
(Unless if they are bad)

maybe avex wants kuu's name written in history for breaking ayu's streak..

[AyUmIXx]

I believe Ayu can do it!
whatever happens between avex and JYJ, just whatever!!
It won't affect Ayu's sales at all! I mean JJ's fans would just help her to boost her sales, but not about holding the no. 1 top oricon chart bcoz we all know she can do it on her own and with her fans' helps!

If that's the case, then we have nothing to say .

And... hehehe... maybe ayu will follow JYJ to break up w/ avex...

[Andrenekoi]

^It's a win/win situation for Avex...
If Ayu wins, she is a step closer to break Seiko's record and at tied with her if L don't get 1st...

If Koda wins, she will be the almight singer who broke Ayumi Hamasaki record, and they will make Ayumi role as the company image smaller, what is useful for them cuz they are being forced to bet almost on the same horse since 2000... A horse that is losing appeal with teenagers and that is not giving 40% of they profit in a long time now...

[Kagome-chan]

the Gazette <33

Go Ayu, good luck!

[auss246]

Love that ayu's #1, but I'm so happy Gazette is #3, I love them also! XD

[Mirrorcle World ～longing future～]

Yes!! Sugoiiii

[kendelle]

I really like both singles but really hope that Ayu takes the no1 for the first week. Kuu can have the second week! Haha...

I bet though, that Avex will do whatever is possible to boost sales for Ayu until the 51st single, especially with this JYJ controversy at the moment. They need positive media so expect freebies and *maybe* a secret live performance the day L is released to push it over the line. Something like that will guarantee her no1...

[inspire_rmx]

so close btw ayumi and koda kumi. i love both songs but i hope Ayu can continue the No.1 streak. *finger crossed*

[toniayu]
