How is she selling this much? Well her biggest hits are mainly ballads, so ofc a ballad-best with new versions of CYC and S19B, a PV for Four Seasons (a fan-favorite for years), and other huge hits like Love Story etc... is gonna do well.
Namie's marketing team is amazing and they know exactly what they are doing. And in general Namie seems to just be very liked in Japan.
lol are people still talking about her dead look? you shouldve known her in 2005-2010... Her look now is like a happy fluffy bunny compared to her dead look then lol
