I couldn't sell 241k albums in a week, I'm glad Ayu can in the current climate!
I dunno anywhere else but her popularity in HK (and probly Taiwan as well) is not rising at all. She was very popular back in the early 2000 - 2003.

MY STORY was released on December 15, so it wasn't counted into the 2005 Oricon year but the 2004 year.

Back then oricon yearly chart ended in the mid of November, so even MY STORY was released in 2004, it was counted as 2005 in oricon calendar. This is similar to the case of RAINBOW (2002) and Memorial address (2003), which were counted in 2003 and 2004 oricon calendar respectively.
