You're funny. All of Ayu's singles except Daybreak charted at #1. That makes them hits, wouldn't you say? And don't you find it interesting that aaaalll the songs on this album besides the never-before-released ones are singles? You know...hit singles?

A Complete is a compilation album just like her best albums are. Therefore, they belong in the same category. Don't try to make this Summer Best album seem more "fresh" by craftily manipulating semantics.

And to those that say 'but she doesn't care about sales/#1 album!' the release of this album strongly indicates that she does.
The truest, most accurate post in this thread.

And some of y'all need to stop speculating about what other Ayu fans buy and don't buy and stop using your unfounded conclusions to paint them as bad people. It's illogical and unattractive.
