Kobukuro!!
Considering both Kobukuro and EXILE are at their prime, and Ayu is on the cusp of her 10th anniversary, I'm not suprised she is struggling for first against their second/third weeks. Ayu is still one of the most popular acts in the country and a legend. The fact that she is still getting the #1 daily every day so far is amazing, even more so for an album that has had no breakout hit. I have faith Ayu can manage to gain her #1 over Kobukuro, by a small margin, but it isn't anything to be upset over if she doesn't. Every major act has a slip in sales at somepoint in their career, and with Ayu's ambition and fame I'm certain she can make a comeback like Namie and Hikki have done recently. All we can do as fans is keep supporting Ayu, enjoy her music and work and relax.
