altho many countries are missing~
esp. other asian countries, which means the overseas version of ayu's sales most likely not included.

actually i've never seen any numbers for any overseas sales~ i'm sure they're sizeable, since even ppl outside asia do buy them also.

altho mine is always JPN version^-^
