I think Ayu at the height of her popularity was seen as very cool, independent and regal almost but she sort of smashed that self-image with mannie, timmy and maro. Now she seems like a silly giggling teenager playing with the boys and it doesn't help that she's 34. I think people stopped appreciating this change in her professional image.

I need to frame this and hang it in my room.

Seems that the above list that mizuki-7 posted are albums that were originally only sold on their official site but now CDJapan is selling them which all titles will be out on Jan 2013

"studio recordings Collection" series, which was sold exclusively at their official site, is now available with an additional disc featuring karaoke tracks.

The amount of AKB milking is making my pretend cow collapse in fear.

[Minttulatte]

Avex should use some of that money that comes from milking AKB fans on Ayu's next mini album and go on the experimental pop route again. Party Queen was going to the right direction imo.

And for heaven's sake, bring Timmy back with his phenomenal music, plz! ;_;

Thanks for sharing this site, I love it!

[Delicious n Bold]

Well, the Japanese market is like a mixture of 10 year olds with methodologies more ancient than my dead great great great grandma.

Don't forget they ALWAYS release 4 or 5 versions of their singles with different tracklists and one of x postcards, too. Money milking machines. I really wonder how much they would sell without those gimmicks, maybe 200-400k/single?
