What do you mean by "Maybe"???

The 4 remixes were the CD+DVD first press, that and the instrumentals in the CD only first press.

Well it feels quite long for MW to hit FREAKY but, it would be awesome. Hard tough...

[Dustie]

This single is pretty much done... Next please, Ayu.

Lol the maybe was in the casual fans part not the pretty enough part
She does have MANY casual fans who perhaps can't be bothered to buy MW all this time so having walked past it for maybe the 20th time, they may be like "what the heck" and just buy it.

MW's postion for the 13th week was #127.

Yaiiy.. nice and B'z sold less than ayu

127　163　***,646　*,192,410　13　浜崎あゆみ 「Mirrorcle World」
158　136　***,469　*,194,274　12　B'z 「BURN-フメツノフェイス-」

less than 2K ayu can outsell B'z

[MissElin_]

How can B'z have a lower spot but higher selling numbers? O.o (Really confuzed about this system now)

[TITANIC]

^ lower spot for that week
total sales B'z still higher than Ayu but on that week MW sold 646 copies and Burn sold 469 copies only so Ayu Got higher place

[SolarAngel]

The difference is only about 150 copies. If the difference remains constant, MW needs to chart for about 12 more weeks lol...

Ugh, I hope she can make it nonethless, but with a new single hopefully coming soon, I doubt it.

[freedreamer]

^GOOO AYU!! AND MW...

Why not? With a new single, people may grab a copy of MW on the way if it is placed strategically right next to the new single Not particularly bothered though. I never really thought about ayu and b'z as arch rivals. B'z is sort of like in their own league. In time, hopefully ayu's status will be cemented as such as well.

Sales for the 14th week:

*,192,738 ***,328 Mirrorcle World / 浜崎あゆみ 08/04/08

[TITANIC]

Oucch.. I think 14th week is the last week for MW on chart

[Empry]

^

It depends. Actually, all the sales for singles last week were quite low. For example: last week Namie Amuro sold 866 copies and the week before twice as much.

What is sad however, is that Green's new album will outsell GUILTY next week and therefore GUILTY will be pushed to #10 of the best selling album of 2008 so far.

[ayumisrael]

^I don't think it's sad since most of the top 10 are boy bands and this year's top 10 yearly albums won't look good (because of that and except for some boy bands I don't like the most that are in the top 10). I gave up on female artists popularities because the popular boy bands consume them.
Just last week B'z dropped both ayu and kumi one position down (and GreeeeN might drop kumi down as well).

Let alone singles which in the top 20 best selling singles of 2008 there are only 3 (one is ayu) female artists and 17 boy bands lol.

Sales-wise GUILTY did very well selling over half a million.
Mirrorcle World did extremely well charting and selling more than 3 of her two recent years singles and it even has the highest first week single sales by a female artist for this year.
Both got good weekly and monthly positioning.
Mirrorcle World got her some new records/achievements.

ayu's in the club.

[TITANIC]

^ haha.. I didnt notice that before you psoted that..

193K if next week still on chart

[SolarAngel]

Sometimes, i feel that utada hikaru is left to champion album sales from the boys. Ayu's definitely in the club but it hurts a little that it's a pre-dominantly male club where many rank above her. I also feel that this could be the last week for MW on the charts but i'll await the next single with optimism =)

[AyuGAME]

GUILTY will out of top 10 yearly for sure
when namie release her best album...
i dunno about other future release that can beat GUILTY
ayaka is a big threat too
and those jfdjafjdsajfdsjfjl boysband is a HUGE THREAD
especially silly dolly billy SHUCHISHIN, if they release an album, it will sell like a hot cake, while their music quality is like a jkfdakfjdksajfkdsjfksjak cake (>_<)

[freedreamer]

193k!! hundred +more hahaha
