BUT is #3 on DLs, #3 on the Oricon tracks chart. Aishou is #10 on DLs. I think that's better this is doing better than OR's "Champione". (first single after NATURAL).

You mean "Koda's original
limited single".
Regarding 'forgiveness', there really isn't a big difference.
Ayu went from '&' selling 591k to 'forgiveness' selling 222k. That's a 62% drop.
Kuu went from 'Yume no Uta' (I'm not counting Cherry Girl for obvious reasons) which sold 301k to 'BUT/Aishou' which would need to sell 116k to experience the same 62% drop Ayu did.

Again, you don't even know how much avex produced (in the # of copies) with this album.

Ayu? (And I guess you don't know about AAA)

That's because B'z isn't even Jpop and Mr. Children isn't an idol group like KAT-TUN.
On the other hand, Ayu and Kuu are both idol-type singers.

I don't think you can really judge after 1 single. Wait for her next release, then decide.
