yeah they're #6 on the NINKI index with Travel Machine (great song <3 but where's the PV o_o)

I'm sure they will do fine since they have been in having a top10 streak after Shunkashutou has helped them out tremendously but they're not a threat to crossroad anyway

it's quite something that crossroad & Suki de x3 / Anata Dake ga is quite close to each other :O

[Kingdom]

Aren't Ayu's ninki's generally higher than that?

[AyuGAME]

well...to be honest, i don't really care about this chart, but it's not a sin to take a look on it...

basically we all know that next week will be a hot battle between Ayu VS Kuu...

but since this is Ayu forum, i think it's more valid to support Ayu...C'MON AYU GET THAT RECORD!!!

[Ranma Matsuri]

^^I was thinking the same... wasn't M/b's like 90? Guess the thing that counts is that she's #1.

[TITANIC]

Avex will do everything to keep ayu safe

[freedreamer]

^its hard to say now with that JYJ fiasco. Avex cant even defend themselves from hordes of fangirls now.

I REALLY hope that she can preserve the record. It'll be terribly ironic if she doesnt. I think avex will just kill themselves. As a fan, i WILL see it as the greatest blemish in her career. I mean, GUILTY not hitting #1 was already O.O

I have nothing against Kuu, and in fact, really LOVE suki de so much i dunno if I even like it more than crossroad but JUST LET AYU COMPLETE THE RECORD!!! >.<

[ownsarai]

That is cool, but yea, now I'm worried about her breaking the streak with this JJY thing going on. Did they do that on purpose? >.> Are they plotting against Ayu? haha
Oh well. Guess we'll have to wait and see, but I'm glad Ayu got #1.

[Ayumiko]

I can't wait till the whole record breaking thing is over...with of course ayu breaking the record.

LOL you're saying it as though the other two members psychoed JJ into turning against this saying, "HEY, you acted in Hamasaki Ayumi's PV right? Do you know they're using you to beat Kuu and also break a Seiko Matsuda record? Do you know Seiko Matsuda?!? and Kuu, we collaborated before. We're being used JJ!!! Let's get outta here." hahaha...this is just a joke btw

As long as kuu is the only "rival", ayu should be safe. Don't forget kuu is under avex as well, so it's easier for avex to "control" the outcome. I'm not sure about other rivals tho, since avex can't control them...

[freedreamer]

^LOl..they can control? Unless they limit the number of copies of Kuu's CDs or..they rig the numbers which are both REALLY wrong. Can't really think of other ways. But lets just hope it'll allll go well for Ayu and may crossroad blossom Sry im not suggesting anything avex.

thanks , I will add that bit of info in the 1st post now

[Ranma Matsuri]

lol guys yeah the JYJ thing is unfortunate and had like the worst timing to happen (just days before the release) but seriously, she'll be ok. I doubt THAT many JYJ fans were going to buy the single anyway, it's the same as before: the fans will get her that #1 like we always do.

Hmmmn.. if breaking the record for ayu is avex's intention, then yes, they'll probly do something like that. Honestly this is not the first time this company playing tricks. I dunno about the other artists since I dun really follow their charts, but for ayu I can at least see two moments for that..

1) the second week of Distance vs. A BEST. The first day of the second week was the only day A BEST getting no. 1 (the rest went to Distance). A BEST ended up being no. 1 that week. Back then (and even now) I could not believe that A BEST could beat Distance sales when the latter album had six days at the top of the chart for that week. Of course, as a fan for both artists, I didn't really care what's going on behind the scene because ayu and hikki both got weekly no. 1 in the end.

Of course there's always a possibility that a single day sales could affect the overall weekly sales... But usually that happens during the 1st week.

2) Mirrorcle World was the 2nd time. Obviously avex couldn't control SCS's sales, but they could affected the sales by giving tons of goodies outside the concert hall. On the other hand, I must consider that ayu's hardcore fans joined the force pretty well during that moment. Without their support during the weekend (especially on the last day of the weekly sales), I wouldn't think MW could beat SCS in the end.

Of course I'm not really sure if avex will really go that far for the sake of her streak, and I trust that ayu's fans will be in berserk mode if anything goes wrong this time (i.e., buy more copies in order to save her streak). I trust avex's calculation for this one.

Ayu will get number 1 for sure, I'm sure japan's overbearingly sick of kumi's innocent acts and ballads, especially when they're not good.
