Ayumi has had 37 number 1's and they are not consecutive. So even if her next single gets a number 2 and then the one after that gets a number 1... she would have 38... the number doesn't change because her previous single wasn't a number 1. She would no longer be able to extend the number of consecutive number 1's. But by not releasing any singles, she still doesnt add to her achievement. It does nothing for her.

Sure it COULD go both ways but as proven by the way the Japanese music industry has operated for the past 30+ years singles are better.
I think you just completely ignored everything I said...
So I think I should say it again.
You CAN'T say for sure what will happen. Her singles my BOMB, they may even do better, you DONT know.
And yes, it is simple... it's all by the numbers.
