i think that this record haven added My Story yet. So if added, i am sure that Ayu is still the best seller in Avex.

Thanks for the update. I don't know, but this might be the first time that Ayu isn't their #1 seller.

BTW It's Otsuka Ai in 3rd place.

come on Ayu! beat EXILE!
oh and wat sales is this? and thx for info~!

thank you very much!!
that's good although Ayu is on the second place!!

Come on Ayu! You should win 1st!

Ayu is 2nd with just 3 singles. That's amazing. Ayu can't be stopped from being #1 again, when my story is added to the sales!

Thanks for the info!

+ a mini-album. there's no way her numbers would be that high from this year's singles alone.

She could be 1st - different isn't big...

A mini-albie + 3 singles = 2nd place... I think that's still good even though she's not #1...

What's the source of that though? Ayumi's name is written there in Chinese... =/

Good eye. I almost skip that part.

Yes. Things like this needs source. Please cite your source.

i dont know why but i dont like ai otsuka i prefer beni arashiro as the best new artist and i like beni very much.even i can say that i hate ai otsuka (sorry fans)
i think after my story sales add to this count, ayu is still on the top spot of avex..
thx for the info

even tho it's the 2nd place...ayu still did great!

i totally dispise otsuka ai as well. she can't sing. she doesn't have the "star quality". i really don't know why there's such a big fuss about her. she's basically an unbelievably UNsuccessful ayu-wanna-be.

I'm not surprised that Ayu is second...comon' she only had 3 singles and 1 mini-album. Those sales are REALLY good nowadays for what she has released. Compare that to EXILE who have had 2 ALBUMS and a BUNCH of singles, and EXILE is really popular now. At least EXILE is a boy group that CAN sing VERY WELL.

I think Ayu should be beating EXILE. =/ I don't like their music much...But that's awesome! I hope this is true!! ^___^

O_O wow! i can't believe EXILE is ahead of Ayu... but congrats to Ayu for coming in 2nd! =D

Good job Ai!

Oh yeah, good job Ayu too...;)

reasons EXILE is first place because...coughTHEY-ARE-BOYBANDScough
and i've said it before...the girls in japan love the boybands..SMAP/EXILE/Takki & Tsubasa/Orange Range etc..is like they can't get enough of them or something :s
and every year ...according to ranks...boybands will always be the top and no more than 4 females can made to the chart..in both popularity and sales wrise....so sad T_T
