Yes we all thought it would outsell Rule/Sparkle, but it seems it won't. We didn't expect B&D/Pride to sell around 1/3 of HEAVEN, but it happened and we got used to her sales not reaching 300k Maybe this is the next step or maybe it's another talkin' 2 myself. It's too early to say.

People should stop turning her sales into a drama, especially since it was already proven that her popularity hasn't been on an increase since who knows when. I am not really sure what SunshineSlayer is trying to point out atm. From what has been posted it seems that the Japanese fans didn't receive the single that well, considering they are mostly the ones who are buying Ayu's physical releases I don't see whats the issue here. On another hand it seems that the casual listeners don't mind downloading it, which is a good thing. And it's quite obvious B'z is doing really well even now.
