^^Plus, the cover is extremly attractive too

SolarAngel · #2 9th July 2008, 04:53 AM

I'm glad she got the no.1 and i think she deserves it more than SCS and i agree, the cover is sooo pretty. It's just that the selling power of boybands like arashi and SCS makes me a little jealous for our ayu. My friend said it's because boyband fans are mostly young girls who don't have enough money to buy albums which are very expensive in japan so they buy the singles but still, i wish ayu's singles sold better.

Well Mirrorcle World is more successful than FREAKY if comparing profits I suppose.. I'm sure avex gained more profit (because of price the and multiple vers. and mainly getting outside promotion).
FREAKY and RFYL had a PV, kumi sang 3 off the 4 songs on TV and some magazines appearances while ayu got 2 TV performances for MW and 4 magazine appearances. kumi got way better promotion.
There difference between the singles now is less than 3000.

FREAKY got 4 versions btw, CD, CD first press, CD+DVD, CD+DVD first press.
Mirrorcle World just got 2 more.

Reminding you
FREAKY CD+DVD first press - 4 songs & 4 remixes
FREAKY CD only first press - 4 songs & 4 instrumentals.
There just weren't 4 different covers, just 2 because there was 1 cd, 1 cd+dvd and each had a first press (cd & cd+dvd).

SolarAngel · #7 10th July 2008, 05:11 AM

Haha thanks! That's good news! Actually i've been wondering about the first-press thing for a long while now. At first, i thought it's avex that's not catching on to it but if freaky had it, why doesn't ayu's releases? E.g. kinki dome dvd had a limited edition and normal edition but ayu's never had something like that. And i don't think a long slipcase really counts because the cover and content is the same.

Bad Wolf · #8 10th July 2008, 05:56 AM

Because they are very generous people (

) I would HAAAAAAAAAAAAATE if Ayu DVDs were released "limited" and that one had great content that wasn't available on the "standard" edition. I dunno I just don't think that's fair. It's bad enough some people don't get to see her live at all, but then excluding people further content-wise?

Lame.

Though they'll probably do something like that with AT08 since it's her anniversary and all :\

Lol! You got a really good point. The way i see it, people are doing it with 3 different methods. Yoshiki method: Release the normal ones first then come up with extra special limited edition. JE method: Add one more song in the normal edition so fans are compelled to buy both. Conventional method: Just use different covers.

Since the first two methods may bother you (it bothers me ALOT), Ayu could do the third one. Then hardcore fans would be rushing to buy the first cover edition and they would buy an extra normal edition whereas casual fans will just buy whichever edition they can get. Boost sales!!

Thanks for the update, Ayumisrael.. hoho...
keep going on Mirrorcle world. i'm so happy this is the first time MW sold higher than last week

keikeiaznqueen · #11 10th July 2008, 12:55 PM

If these sales last, MW can beat Daybreak in terms of sales!! =D

TITANIC · #12 10th July 2008, 02:34 PM

MissElin_ · #16 12th July 2008, 10:53 AM

How can B'z have a lower spot but higher selling numbers? O.o (Really confuzed about this system now)

**ayumisrael** · #17 10th July 2008, 08:55 PM

Yay! it went up 36 places!
And there was no tour or new stuff ^_^ good!

SolarAngel · #18 11th July 2008, 04:25 AM

Maybe the cover is pretty enough to get casual fans to buy it if they walk past a copy.

Lol the maybe was in the casual fans part not the pretty enough part

She does have MANY casual fans who perhaps can't be bothered to buy MW all this time so having walked past it for maybe the 20th time, they may be like "what the heck" and just buy it.
