Despite the less than stellar sales of Next Level, one encouraging thing is that it's charting well against other albums. This shows that comparatively, ayu is still one of the top artistes in Japan and for the ranking to move up, it just show how front-loaded sales of other albums are, not just ayu's.

The only depressing thing is how much lower can it go? I honestly though Guilty has bottomed-out in terms of sales (not quality). Is the next album even going to reach platinum? It's depressing me in this regard.

But i'm still excited for ayu, that she's still setting records, even with Next Level and she's singing all the songs in this album and performing for all the a-nation concerts. Her heart is really in it for her fans.
