That's pretty amazing, beating all of those top acts... But I can't help but wondering if Avex plans the release date strategically so as to not ruin her streak...

80,000 so far.... so it's unlikely to reach 100,000 right?

[Larisa-chan]

I would HOPE that this single would pass 100,000 sales by the end of its run, sheesh.

Also, Tuesday rankings by comparison according to Oricon:

3. B'z 6,229 sales
9. Ayu
11. Morning Musume
14. Gackt

i am pretty sure they do, lol. i think they wouldn't dare put her up against a JE group for fear of ruining her streak.

[zyoeru]

80,000 isn't really that bad.

Its pretty obvious that they do. For several years now she hasn't released on a day with any major competition. A lot of the top artists seem to avoid each others release dates though. Nowadays though it seems Ayu is having to start worrying about beating some of the moderate competition.

lol I like SMAP anyway, but I'm glad to see there's some "battle" of sales between them and ayu ^^ is fun

[neuteka]

wow, that is a pretty big position drop in so little time ._.
best of luck for more sales, though~

There is only a battle for this achievements between them.

ayu is the 4th best selling artist in japan in overall sales (and best selling female and solo artist in overall sales too) while they are not even on top 10-20. But I'm not sure about the 20. xD

Thinking about it ayu's overall total sales should be around 48,500,000...
I wonder when oricon will release an issue of the top 5 best selling artists again. Last time was 2007 but it was because of Mr. Children's album.

[keikeiaznqueen]

^ Nah, Ayu passed 50 million last year.

I know this is wikipedia but it's also math so I guess I won't challenge it and go get out a calculator myself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayumi_H..._Sales_Only.29

Also, dropping to 9th after new releases come out is not bad at all. For one thing, it's guaranteed that Ayu will probably be in top 5 again by the end of the week from climbing since other singles drop further than Ayu. Looking at the competition this week, I'm quite certain too.

^lol all that info is FAKE FAKE FAKE!!!!! Especially the 'asia sales', no such numbers.

The only questionable numbers are the asia sales numbers. Just because those warrant our suspicions doesn't mean the oricon numbers for Japanese sales are fake.

[ayumisrael]

Well, due to oricon until 19th March 2007 ayu sold 45,528,000 Albums & Singles copies.
It excludes DVDs, non regular releases and such.
Since then ayu sold around 2,500,000 or 3,000,000 Albums & Singles copies so that's why I thought it might be around 48,500,000 now. XD

this

I think that all its matters already at the end of the day

I'm sure on here some people are still concerned about her sales but others like me , nah not really

as long as she continues her #1 streak , it's good enough

[rainydayumi]

guys if she fell to #12 today, does that mean her sales is below 1,000?? will she even sell more than 90,000 like this? i didnt expect the problem to be so severe. if she doesnt make 100,000, that will be her lowest selling single since...?
