I somehow feel that she could do so much better in any other country but japan atm. just a random thought

I was expecting her best to sell from average good to really good... but ughh



in Japan if you stay behind, people forget, like they seriously do, it works like that in there lol

I think we should all just have a silent minute or two, because that is a tragedy

Back on topic, maybe the switch in management is to blame?

^ No promotion is to blame and that would fall on Avex's lap. But since she is being dropped by the label, they really had no incentive to promote it. I believe this was probably a contractually stipulated release before they could officially drop her; often times artists, at least in the US, release Greatest Hits albums to fulfill a contract agreement about the number of albums they need to release and its much easier to push out a greatest hits than create a new album.

avex probably figure a long time ago that OLIVIA's not as profitable as during her NANA heydays which explained little if not no promotion given to her after the NANA phrase died out

I never see them giving her promo for Trinka Trinka , Sailing free & let alone for GREATEST HITS too

other avex artistes also suffer the same fate , it's not just OLIVIA that experiences this

She could make indie music like Caroline...? Well, this sucks. Like it truly does. But I honestly don't care, as long as OLIVIA makes more new music I'm all good :3

I thought avex wasn't the one dropping her - it was the management company she is with which isn't avex - it's something else...?
