Wow, I love how there are so many people on this board saying "Get a life."

Instead of condemning, why doesn't anyone try to understand? LOL.

I don't understand, honestly. You guys are so sad.

You guys complain "Oh I want her to sell so many millions again, I want her to be the best, I want her to be number one."

But when the cause of her not getting number one is revealed, "LOL GET A LIFE." Don't be so ignorant.

So I think people are interested in news more than music release I guess.

The earthquake lasted for 5 seconds, and we barely talked about it after the Earthquake happened in the office. So that's not a factor, unfortunately... =/ Wish it was!

I'm not complaining about wanting her to sell millions. Nowhere in this thread or in previous threads of an Oricon charting have I ever said that I want Ayu to go back to her old sales. Because I don't care about sales. Ranking doesn't mean crap to me.

And yes, people who refuse to buy work from an artist because of who they are dating need a life. Of all the things to boycott an artist over lol.

Im sorry but there's more to it, its not just a product. Product when in hands of people has its value. It means something to them or it represents their beliefs. You cant separate image and music. You cant look at the painting and close your eyes on some wrong details.

Image -the persona- represents the music. If -the persona- is doing something I feel its wrong/stupid/embarassing/bad I think its legit not to support the person, cause you dont think about background people and just music. You can simply download music for free or you can dislike -the persona- that much that you start to ignore it. She's a pop star, not a classical artist or some indie person we dont know face nor real name. And Im not even supportin' anybody's decision. I didnt even make a decision. Its more about music to me, but if she did something like rihanna did, basically supporting domestic violence Im sorry but I would never ever want to remember that I ever liked her. I would sell her cds and woudnt care anymore. And its not about 'oh I want to dictate Ayu's or anyone's life'. NO. Its just I have a right to decide whether I'll support somethin' or not, same as Ayu has or anyone else. So you should start respecting anyone's decision, like everyone else in the thread.

Okay that's nice but this is all about how people are bummed about Ayu's love life, and if it went deeper than that, then hey! Guess what, you aren't boycotting the mini album because of her love life. You're boycotting it because of deeper reasons. I mocked, and will still mock, people who won't buy this album because of who she's dating. I won't mock, and quite frankly don't give a toss about, people who have deeper but related reasons to not buying it.

Also your last sentence is really ironic considering what you're doing lol.

ETA: More freakin' importantly, look! She got #2! We can all calm down. Take a bong hit, drink some camomile and just RELAX.

you are actually just as condemning in your post,. (just sayin )
and I didn't realize your office encompassed all of the areas that were effected by the earthquake, glad you could clear that up for us.
(not that I agree with earthquake effecting sales at all, because it doesn't, nor do pathetic fans that want to 'boycott' )
