Ayu is doing rather marvelously on Amazon.co.jp. (She's #1 right now above both K-ON!! releases)


4.5/5 with only 7 1-star reviews! (56 total so far)

Is it safe to say that Japan really likes it?

Only You were... and Sunrise. I think she got invaded by trolls for those two singles.

Rock'n'Roll Circus (CD only) - 5/5 - 2 reviews

You were... / BALLAD - 2.5/5 - 142 reviews
Sunrise / Sunset - 2.5/5 - 140 reviews

(The trolling is just too obvious imo.)

Pre-Sunrise ratings:
NEXT LEVEL - 4/5 - 170 reviews
A Song for XX - 5/5 - 37 reviews
A BEST - 4.5/5 - 63 reviews
A COMPLETE - 3.5/5 - 230 reviews
A BEST 2 -WHITE- - 3/5 - 172 reviews
A BEST 2 -BLACK- - 3/5 - 172 reviews
LOVEppears - 4.5/5 - 34 reviews
Memorial address - 4/5 - 61 reviews
MY STORY - 4.5/5 - 110 reviews
I am... - 4/5 - 40 reviews
(miss)understood - 4/5 - 114 reviews
GUILTY - 4/5 - 202 reviews
Secret - 4.5/5 - 173 reviews

Rule/Sparkle - 4/5 - 91 reviews
Days/GREEN - 4.5/5 - 61 reviews

Her highest rated albums are ASFXX and Secret... wao.

I don't really trust Amazon.co.jp. Over time more and more trolls will probably show up and turn that 7 into a 50 or something.

I'm really worried. I pre-ordered by boxset from PlayAsia a month ago and it still says "Preparing Order" and has no estimated shipping date. I feel so dumb now and I couldve ordered from YesAsia when they had it again today for a limited time.

It looks like its ayu fans who take the time to leave comments on amazon. I mean, NEXT LEVEL and GUILTY both have 4/5. Give it a few weeks and RnRC will probably be at the same level.

if you order from yesasia, that will never happen.
For me, i'll receive my parcels at least 8 days to 3 weeks, after I receive their emails....
It's cdjapan that have those incidents, with ems.
If i buy from hmv, it's 2 to 4 days after.

That's how I feel, too. The internet always houses such immature, silly people who have nothing better to do but to spam things like this.

I'm curious to see what some of the reviews say, though!

The most liked positive review:
5/5
"THE BEST!!"
"This album is the best! It's a bit like MY STORY. It has less songs than MY STORY, but I love each and every song! Even the instrumental tracks!

There are 8 PVs and 8 making ofs included for a total of 16 clips with a bonus of an AT09 digest.

This album's songs are all wonderful, and the PVs are quite artistic, so when buying it, please consider buying the +DVD version!

The most liked critical review:
3/5
"A Labor of Love"
"I was a fan of Ayu from the very beginning of her debut. Ayu's songs really saved me at that time. Without Ayu's songs (and I'm not exaggerating about this) I might not have survived. That's how much her music touched my soul. However, recently Ayu has been doing the same thing with her lyrics, changing the wording and the way she says words. Her vocabulary just seems too narrow. When I finished listening to this CD, it really wasn't that good, but and it felt like I couldn't go on liking her. I saw Don't look back's PV and perhaps she also feels that she has such limitations? I made my own interpretation of Microphone, and decided to continue supporting Ayu in the future. If you are going to purchase this CD, I recommend the DVD version. If you like rock, then you will like this album. For me, the album was disappointing. I look forward to next time."

This is really roughly translated from Google translate, haha. Maybe someone else can go over the critical reviews.

Annnnd it's "within 3-5 days" availability and not 1-2 days. So looks like they're moving through stock pretty quickly right? This is really great. Ayumi deserves the success. I love this album so much I really do.
