An Arashi single in late Oct/early Nov is basically confirmed and I'm sure we will also see another single from KAT-TUN, NEWS, and Kanjani 8 before the year is out. So yeah, Ayu I think will end up far out of the top 20.

^ Ugh. -_-' Oh well. No shame, ironically, in being beat out by boybands, right? She'll still be a top selling artist, so it's all good.

She will be the 2nd solo female singer and maybe overall solo singer...

yeah & now I heard the new ARASHI single might be released even earlier than what I expected ie. on Oct 21st :thud

true , that should provide some sort of comfort for people

yupz. probably she will end up in top 30 which is ironic for female artist..

She'll be the 2nd female singer? Who is the first?

^That Enka Singer with Ai no mama de, I think!
She's been charting forever!!

Yeah, Junko Akimoto has sold over a half a million already with that single! X.X' She's also the oldest singer to reach #1 on the charts. :O

^ Also it is highly likely that Superfly will have the best selling original album for a solo female artist. Not Ayu's best year, but its a down year for female artists in general it seems.

:yes 2009 sucks big time for the female singers I listen to... Ayu, Kuu, Ai Otsuka, Yuna Ito... :(

So is Junko-san the number 1 just for this year then?

unfortunately but true but ayaka might have a chance to overtake Superfly since ayaka's History 2006 - 2009 is doing considerably well in the 1st week but anything goes really

^Ayaka's album is a best whereas superfly's is an original album.

Anything better than 33 for GREEN/Days will be better than last year. And the year before that. I think that's likely she'll be in at least the top 30. =) The state of sales in general is sad, however the female idol groups are seemingly having an increase/ stabilizing lately, and it's not just one group independently.

^ Yeah, AKB48 has been on the rise as well as obviously Perfume. Even Morning Musume's sales have remained pretty stable over the last several years.
