I agree with this. Even as a fan I wasn't even sure to buy it as I already own these songs often on more than one media. the sales are mediocre compared to her albums standards, but pretty much similar to her latest remastered and remixed albums (A7 and LoveClassics, loveppears). The only success on that best of that wasn't included on a best of already is Days.
I will also add that they didn't propose anything interesting with the DVD content.
I think the release reaches avex expectations and will still give them good profits. The first press have already sold out and they still sold over 10k for a best of that cost them probably very little to make. They are also making profits on Haru koi streamings which did decent. I also think a lot of people won't buy the album but will still add it on their streaming service as an occasionnal ayumi playlist and it will stream more on the long run than a new album.
