^I bought the OS version too. But overseas sales don't count I think.

All this talk about sales going up during the tour is giving me hope... *sniff*:tipsy

cleftjuston 4th March 2006 12:51 PM

huh, overseas sales don't count, really?

ayu_fan929 4th March 2006 02:29 PM

^nope. as oricon is a japan based company, and since overseas versions arnt allowed to be sold in japan, it makes sense OS versions arnt counted

Kikaru 4th March 2006 04:03 PM

Only 150K left to go...so little...yet so much...Com'on, Arena Tour.

pbs1605 4th March 2006 11:36 PM

Thaks for the numbers.It did not drop so much this week.

Dgirl 5th March 2006 08:05 AM

1million seems never to come.....

Mad_Cactuar 5th March 2006 08:36 AM

This is the time where all sales stay around the same amount..

truehappiness 5th March 2006 08:57 AM

Remember people;

her TOOOOUUURRRR and thousands of people seeing ayu and buying ayu merchandise..

THOUSANDDSSS. I bet we'll get one million soon!

[you know, one million albums is a lot XDDD]

I'm starting to give up hope that ANYBODY will be able to reach that mark. The numbers these days are startling, even people like BoA had ridiculously low starting sales. Probably the only ones that will hit that million mark are the best albums that were released during the Christmas period.

Partino 5th March 2006 10:38 AM

I don't think it will reach the 1mill. Sorry guys.

Err.. Not to spoil anything.. But I dont think that My Story's sales was influenced by the tour. Maybe like 50 000 copies in total but.. Well, lets be optimistic anyway.

Exactly. Word by word. Whats the last album to reach 800 000 after (miss)understood? I don't think any.. Otsuka Ai is close, but hers was released before Ayu.

truehappiness 5th March 2006 11:23 AM

But seriously. You never know.

Ayu's quite unpredictable [B&D.. getting no.1 that week?! XD].

Anything seems to be possible with this woman x.x

well BoA's album was just, not that good. hey its only march, theres still 8 months left in the oricon year, im sure there will be more million sellers. this time last yr, there were 4 million sellers, now we have 3.

more often than not you can't blame the sales on the "quality" of the songs, because it's impossible to know what everyone will think of it. On this forum it seems that most people think that MY STORY was a lot worse than (m) u but MY STORY still had considerably higher sales.

openingRUN 5th March 2006 06:12 PM

this is so pathetic! she cant even break a million anymore. remember when her SINGLES used to break a million? psh

true, but i think for BoA its kinda different, i mean basically 2 of her 4 singles released were flops which probably did lead to y her album doing poorly.

True though, OUTGROW was simply not good enough. But I thought her popularity would have carried her through anyway. Definitiely didn't expect sales to be at 220,000+ only, really low for a BoA album.

Unless somebody comes up with something spectacular, I'm not going to be very optimistic.

darkswordz 7th March 2006 08:16 AM

I'll just wait and see, though I really hope that (miss)understood will cross the million mark by Nov this year :yes

evechoco 7th March 2006 10:58 AM
