I've got a few small points to make, then I'm done here:
- 7 original songs over 2 releases in 2 months, each have been above par releases, especially the songs on again. I don't need sales to validate my opinion of Ayu's output and neither should any true music lover.
- 5 new PVs (albeit not the best, but better than nothing)
- another 3 releases in 3 months
- based on the three points above, we are being spoiled with new material from Ayu like we haven't seen for years. And the music is traditional ayu, sounds members here have been demanding for over experimental Party Queen ayu.
- for these consecutive releases, it has been said 100000000000 times before, SALES. DO. NOT. MATTER. Not to Ayu, Avex, and by extension to you. If they mattered, each release would be released at the start of the Oricon week. It would be nice if these sold more, but it is not the end of Ayu's career and it definitely should not reflect the quality of the music to you. There are a lot of external factors to consider as well, as the previous posts have covered.
- these releases are for you, the fans (including the selfish ones who truly make me ashamed to be an Ayu fan sometimes)

While I do agree with the point that she is indeed releasing a lot of new material in such a small period of time, quality is not quantity, the music is ok, but the PVs, oh lord, they are just awful awful awful, maybe with the exception of Song 4 u and maybe just maybe Sweet scar, it's as if the time ran out and then it was like Sweet Brown: Ain't nobody got time for that, and so we got this bad acted/bad everything ones.
In regards to sales I do agree with you as well, as avex is really doing this to milk the fans, I mean to please the fans XD No for really it's a nice gesture to release some material to coincide with her carreer anniversary.
The rest of the post is a little bit dramatic but you do have a point, it's sad that everyone is complaining about everyhting all the time. Maybe ayu needs to pull a utada and the leave the music scene even if for just a while, then fans would be crying for her to come back and stop complaining.
