Big deal if she didn't get #1, coming so close to KinKi Kids is a major achievement already!!! If you look at the sales... its like

1. 239k
2. 207
3. 50k

that's a 150k+ gap... I think Kuu's proven herself don't you?! You guys have to take it into account... KinKi Kids have been around for like decades, Kuu's been around for 6 years, 5 of which were unnoticed and 1 year of being noticed. I think we should commend her for her hard work and for getting to this level...

Even Oricon was unsure, they worded the news article carefully saying "it is a matter of time before they get their 23rd consecutive single"... unlike with Ayu's BB and KAT-TUN where they said it will "definately" take the #1 spot.... Kuu posing such a threat to such a big name in Japan is already amazing, let's just be happy rather than saying it "bleak" for not selling as well because it was a 4-A Side single
