RULE/Sparkle sales and covers predictions

[Jwiz]

IMO Rule/Sparkle will at most do abit better than MW in terms of first week sales. Chart life wise...might be shorter than G/D's. Cover wise, i think ayu might continue with the MW + G/D style.

[ownsarai]

I hope she does a dark cover instead of anything resembling Mirrorcle World & GREEN/Days. I mean, her 10th Anniversary will almost be over, and there's no more 10th Anniversary versions of old songs coming out. Chart wise, I hope it does 200k+ in the first week!!! Maybe with the tie-ins she has going for the songs it can happen~ We'll just have to wait and see.

I think the covers of Mirrorcle World and Days/GREEN were specifically for her 10th anniversary, I highly doubt Rule/Sparkle will resemble them in the least.

Her 'rock' songs never sold as well compared to her upbeat pop singles. This single may sell around as much as Mirrorcle World.

[freedreamer]

Yea rock singles dont appeal to jPOP fans...but with a tie-in like this, it might work both ways. Some people might find the Movie as crap so they might even not like the song..etc..but Some people might like it because Dragonball IS from Japan..so i dunno
(i can understand if some japanese feel rather offended if the movie turns out not well)

I think the song is gonna be good. Though the chorus seems short in length..going by the words..(Each line is short)
I need something impactful and with attitude..
and hopefully slightly different

as for the covers, we need something fierce heh...

[jbrat2219]

I spoke with my friend in Japan... He doesn't think the movie will be good at all and he feels the general public feels the same so I'm kind of worried.... I hope he's wrong xD;

[asmAyumi1992]

I think more than 200k. The songs (R/S) have many promotions than G/D or D/G. World wide promotions from the movie.

[GRACE]

Plus the Honda tie-in is big as well, I predict it selling pretty well, at least I don't think it has the chance of killing her #1 streak.

I also agree with the people who say it won't be like MW and D/G. I think, besides the lack of 10ths, the fact that it's missing the first press long case is a big clue of that

cause thats very rock-ish =p

[yoshino]

oh.. I want Ayu to dress in a rock style. I wld love that! Not anything similar to MW or D/G pls.. Smth new!!

I hope the sales will be better cos of the Dragonball movie ^_^

[Ayumi27]

I just pray for a cover similar to the Sparkle CM

And about sales... Being a double a-side and having a tie in with dragonball should be considered... I expect 200k

[Chibi_Venus]

I hope for a cover that isn't similar to Mirrorcle World and Days/GREEN. I actually think the similarity between the two was kind of a coincidence, so I have a feeling it will be different anyway. But I want darker colors.

Sales? No idea.

[Purple Neko]

I really want these covers to be different from MW and D/G... SOMETHING PURPLE lol. She hasn't really had a purple cover *I think* unless you count Bold & Delicous..

and I like rockish singles :< I loved t2m!

[amorphose]

I hope the covers don't continue the trend. -_-
I was so, so disappointed with the Days/GREEN covers.

I was hoping for a photoshoot with her in the outfit from the beginning of the GREEN PV in the streets. >_<

For Rule/Sparkle, I hope the covers are something similar to how she looked in the HONDA CM. <333 I was thinking the MW and D/G covers were something she did similar because of her 10th anniversary. If she continues on with it, I'll be so bored~

NOPE! It's because I was thinking of "H" when ideas for covers came up! XDDD I was thinking it could kind of continue in that!

[mellody]

Nope! H or &!

Like this!


or this

[jbrat2219]

^ That's a little too light hearted.... plus it's not a summer single

[Pow!]

Umm, I think H and & are too cheerful,, I'm imagining things darker and wilder, RAWR! (-_-)'

I really want Ayu to surprise us this time, with a new kind of rock song, not like T2M or MW,,

Rule has better be good!! Because I don't really like the idea of Dragonball Movie,, 'something' must make this movie quiet nice to watch,,
