So now with the new re-release A BEST sold 4,304,766 (oricon-wise).

not 10k weekly yet, but with today's sales it must have reached it.
15k total is possible :)

This is such a great number! :banana2 Really happy for ayu

Too bad it didn't reach 10k in the first week but still good :yes

they already removed the dispaly for A Best from Tsutaya in Shibuya, it was literally there one day only...

It's just a coincidence but the the 15th Anniversary edition of Utada Hikaru's First love sold nearly the same amount in it's first week with the same position number lol

Wow...that's definitely surprising.

So annoyed with how the release date was handled.

For re-release stuff with zero new content. Almost 10k in the first week is really good. Lot of new artist will cry to get that much especially for female soloist.

Kind of disrespectful if you ask me.Makes me think it would have almost been better if they have not placed it at all. Poor employee that had to take it down 24 hours after he/she put it up. If it has been me I would have looked at my boss like '':irked ...... I QUIT!''

P.S. I am sooo happy with these numbers!

At #20 today:

It's still #4 on iTunes which isn't too bad. I think those 7k in one day wouldn't have happened without the music station appearance tho. And this is why she should throw her pride or whatever away and just promote. There might be people that rip apart everything she does but who cares if it results in promotion and sales. Her appearances always attract attention at the very least

I already satisfied with the first week number...so anything after that...I have no problem...A BEST already achieved the number that it's deserve...

THANK YOU.

I don't think Ayu realizes how even a little selective promotion vastly improves her releases. It's not just about being a product, but about feedback and just general pride in her own work. I'd love for her to just do a week of serious promo for a new release. It doesn't have to be 6 performances each day, but at least show up on TV a few times in the weeks leading up to release. It shows people Ayu is proud of her current work and that she still wants to share the experience with fans.

Well, according to Ayu's interviews she apparently doesn't really care about sales. And seeing the lack of promotion I believe this. I mean, obviously, she'd want to make some profit and probably would be happy if the release sold well, but it's not her goal.

Perhaps she actually wants to stay kinda out of spotlight. She's had enough of it already, and I can only imagine how hard it must be, so imo she deserves some rest and it's perfectly fine that she mostly works for herself because she enjoys it and for her fans.

Well she's promoting A BEST through Instagram though lol.

I'm happy with the sales, 15K total is totally doable

A BEST is at #17 today!

NICE JUMP!!!

Best album usually has more longevity than original album...so maybe it will floating around for a month at least...
