Not saying Ayu isn't pop royalty, because she is undeniably, but it isn't because of her oricon record or sales history. She should be better known for her influence on music rather than how many records she sold IMO.
I completely agree. I've really even never been that big of a "sales" person. I really could care a lot less. But here I just think that when you look at her numbers, her sales are an amazing accomplishment as well.
