So each single gets their turn to jump around the no. 1, 2, and 3 spots

you may be a super ayu fans that would go to website to check the date of release, but some people are not love ayu as us, although they still buy the CD!!! the mucis station is a popular TV show that many people watch, CDTV just a non-popular show that broadcast at MIDNIGHT, there are much differents between them.

as for the posters, they mainly post on the metropolis , don't forget there are MORE people live in small city than big city

actually, there still many people know the correct date of release, but others think that HEAVEN is released with the movie on 17/9

[starr5245]

shinobi will be released tomorrow!! So it'll help heaven to boost it's sales!

[SunshineSlayer]

Yeah, with the movie coming out on the 17th and Music Station saying the single comes out on the 17th, I'm sure everyone except us big Ayu fans didn't know that the single actually came out the 14th.

SEE! I know HEAVEN sure will get position 1 by this week!! Thanks for news...

[lilithberi]

wow... MS announced the wrong date! Wrong shipment to movie theatre!!! HK shipment got delayed!!! Why the hell all these mistakes happened with this single??? Eventhough i am happy she gained back the No.1 postion..but losing the streak because of those mistakes are just mess up big time

[Namie]

ok...not that Im not happy that Ayu is nr 1 but how does she do it? Nr 1 every single that she does? Is she the only artist that japan cares about? What about the others talented artist? I mean...c'mon....they must have songs that beat Ayus sometimes....getting my point? anyway......CONGRATZ TO AYU!

[Mad_Cactuar]

^ no, I hope she gets number 1 forever, even if it means pushing other artistes off the train.. The streak isnt lost yet, right? It all depends on the weekly charts now..

[AyuGAME]

hope the best for ayu
and hope that the news about shipment is true..
so..we can see a hope that ayu can be a number one this week
and hope she stay in number one until the rest of the week
this was a very thight competition

I know what you mean, Ayu is great... but there is other talent there as well. Its also a matter of when the singles are released. But, Ayumi won't remain #1 forever. haha.

if you have been following oricon rankings you will notice that usually big artists take turns to release singles. They seldomly release singles at the same time so it's like they make sure themselves getting no. 1 with no struggling. How often do you see hikki vs. ayu? Only twice in your life so far (I hope they're not going to battle again in the future ). Have you ever seen B'z vs. ayu, KinKi Kids vs. B'z, hikki vs. KinKi Kids? According to my memory, the "big artist" that Ayu against the most is actually not hikki... but it's Mai Kuraki instead.

vogue vs. Secret of my heart (no. 3 and no. 2 in the end respectively)
SURREAL vs. Simply Wonderful (no. 1 and no. 2)
Free & Easy vs. feel fine! (no. 1 and no. 2)

so practically you don't see much of no. 1 artist vs. no. 1 artist.

[extepan]

i think the most important thing is toget the weekly number 1. i think the weekly number 1 position is still a bit shaky...i am not sure if ayu can get it

[bluegie]

yeah... first time being that shaky after Daybreak. and btw now I remember any "big artist" faced ayu so often... morning musume:

Far away vs. happy summer wedding (no. 2 and 1)
M vs. renai revolution 21 (no. 1 and 2)
& vs. shuffle 2003 (no. 1 and...?)

[Endlessoul]

YAY!!!today she's still No.1!!!!

[Endlessoul]

that is interesting.

[SunshineSlayer]

Yay! Still #1 today. Keep it going Ayu!

[Mad_Cactuar]

yes, 2 days number 1!!! I think she'll stay in the top 3 (hopefully 1) until Shinobi is played for 2 weeks!!!
