Just talking about the song, I think "Sunrise" and "Sunset" are really GREAT!!! "Sunrise" is FUN!!! "Sunset" is TOUCHING!!! It is much better that "glitter", "Greatful Days" & "July 1st".
Honestly, the cost of Sunrise/Sunset PV is much lower compared to that of ayu past PV. However, it's still a good PV because I can feel the energy of ayu, dancers and her fans.
The poor cover may affect the sales. But it's not main reason I think. The main reasons are the economy of Japan and the trend of legal song download.

In fact, most of the Japanese doesn't know anything about the sales ! Even the TA members don't check the sales figure..
When I told some of them the sales they were like "Is it a joke ? Come on it's Ayu she will sell more that 150,000 during the first week" So I had to demonstrate them some prooves (thanks oricon !) and show us that even other artists don't sell as much as in the past !
Japanese are not really aware about sales figures aha
So low sales doesn't mean poor quality at all. And here we're not (at least I'm not) saying that's poor quality. 10 nin 10 iro ! (10 persons 10 colors) Everyone has a personal opinion.
Anyway even if the sales all low (personally I think it's okay..!) comparing a some other Ayu's recent single, we can't say that's a flop because she's n°1 !
