Look at the sales of her Distance singles, almost all of those crossed a million mark and outsold all her First Love singles, yet the album sales dropped by 3 millions.

You have a point there. Never really thought about it. It's almost as if an artist's most popular singles come after their best selling album, haha. I guess that's because they have the "inverted" single release system in Japan.
Anyway, I guess you were right on EXILE. Still, I'm kind of sad, since they and Mr. Children were my "guaranteed million sellers". At this point in time, Japan doesn't have any anymore : /
