^ you are missing the point of my post.
It has nothing to do with who got what.

I consider it a bad week in sales, nothing (for singles) broke 100K... if the final sales are right, with Kuu at 55K nothing even broke 60K... thats a bad week when you have other artist who can do more in sales. you said it yourself with Nana Mizuki. Namie's Sit Stay... did 77K and ayumi's last single L did 70K just to name two other female artist.

it is not a reflection on Kuu, its a reflection on the week

Ayu's last single was in 2010. Times have changed since and then and Ayu's album sales have been cut in half since then. Whose to say if Ayu released a single now she would do the same numbers? I really doubt she would and even if she did her numbers were nothing special either and were released in even deader weeks than this one. I agree with Nana and Namie but Ayu is not this huge seller either yet if she got #1 with the same numbers I'm not so sure you'd be saying the same thing.

It's funny to me when Kuu actually does get a #1 it's "oh it was a dead week" and when she gets #6 or whatever she's "flopping." Some people just never stop sigh.....

like i said before, it has nothing to do with it being kuu. You are pulling at stray hairs. Its a dead week because the highest seller only did 55K... It could of been ayumi and I would be saying the same thing.
It could of been AKB and I would still say ITS A DEAD WEEK.

as for the bolded part, since ayumi did 70K it cant be deader then 55k, now can it... she sold 15K more copies. But just droping Ayumi and talking with Nana who did 75K, 20K more then Kuu is a little bit better...
I still wouldn't consider that a hot week though... its better, but not excellent.

100K for me is excellent and not many solo's get that anymore.

most weeks have one single that has amazing sales, usually the JE/AKB factor comes in here, and the rest pull decent numbers

this week the difference between Kuu and SuperGirls was a few hundred copies and third was a few thousand copies behind, so no it wasn't a dead week by any means

most people here are saying we aren't in 2007 anymore, update those standards since selling 55k is really good nowadays for singles for soloist, I would say excellent

by your standards only Masha,B'z,Mr.Children, and idol groups would meet it.............like whatever you can have your indivisual standards but overall they are quite unrealistic in today's climate of single sales

Um, no.
I dont see why I have to update my standards to make you feel better about Kuu's release. You should just leave it alone and be happy that she got a number 1.

and quite frankly I dont see how my standards effect you in anyway. They dont bother you, or I should say they SHOULDNT bother you and if they do, then ignore them. And they really are not my standards but the certification standards.

But its no use trying to talk to Kuu-o-holic. I'm done with the topic.
