Please try to be serious.

I can tell you that 99% of Ayumis or Kodas fans in Japan doesn't have a clue about which of the artists sell the most, they both top the charts at all times because they're never released simultaneously.

Most like it's just like with music anywhere in the world, the one artist that is talked about the most is the one that is making the music that appeals to the current generations ear the most. Also that artist needs some luck to break through and help with the promotion. Right now the three most popular and talked about artists in Japan is Ayu, Koda and Utada.

There's a minority of the fans who are like us and have an eye on every single detail that goes on with sales and everything. We belong to that minority, don't let that twist your view.
