Why? This isn't an Ayu single, it can't possibly sell more than 50k.

To assume the only reason that this single sold well is because of ayu is just plan dumb. Although this is Naoya first solo single he's been part of AAA for five years. Its not as though he's a completely brand new artist. Two friends of mine are studying in Japan have told me that although ayu is part of this single its only lending a little bit of hype; people really don't give a stuff that she's part of the single. But there are plenty of people that support AAA and Naoya. All the sales aren't just because of ayu.

Also I know I posted in my last comment that the sales are higher than most AAA stuff, but AAA have been selling extremely well lately so these sales I think reflect on that too
There were two twin sisters from jpm who said that people could decide if they wanna cheer for Ayu or Naoya on CDTV and the majority of people chose to cheer for Ayu. Naoya's solo album flopped badly as even though AAA's fan base is slowly growing (<3) people generally don't care that much about him. His solo album sales display how much he is in fact (ir)relevant. And this isn't any higher than AAA's stuff, they sell around 40-50k during the first week. So you can bet that this single is only selling because there is Ayu in it and the sales are quite weak nevertheless.
