I think Mirrorcle World is somewhat of an unsafe/experimental song to release as a single. However, since it's being marketed as a 10th anniversary single, it might not matter so much. I don't think avex would let Ayu pull another Bold&Delicious/Pride, especially since her streak is still going, and after the somewhat lower single sales of last year.

Personally, I don't find the #1 single streak that big of an achievement in the first place. Especially in the Japanese market, some weeks have little to no competition, and you know avex will be more inclined to pick that week. It's all ********.
