Hmm I'm very surprised she outsold acts like SMAP and southern all stars in DVD sales. But yay!

 . Morning musume as well.Still though it's a nice accomplishment for both. Arashi though....,,,wow, no one will be catching that for a while or ever. I also don't disparage arashi their success, they built very slowly and worked hard for years, they were not an instant success by any means.

When I first saw this thread, I was mortified. 253 million DVDs?
I knew that was wrong. DVDs in Japan are a billion dollars each. Keep getting those sales ayuma!

MoMusu's DVDs count their various Single Vs (basically a DVD version of their single with videos only) so it adds up a lot more than Ayu's usual CDL/tour DVD thing. I mean, COMPLETE CLIP BOX/A 50 SINGLES/A CLIPS/A CLIP BOX probably also helped too in Ayu's case most of those were one time releases.

^ Yeah, its hard to even know what would count for MM. Like would the MM in Hawaii (or insert other various locations) DVDs be counted? Hello Project concert dvds? Photobook DVDs etc.
Compared to other artists, Ayu also has quite a few DVDs. Very few artists routinely release 2 concert DVDs per year. Plus she has had several PV collections released (at least 4 off the top of my head?) Plus she did also release DVD singles at the height of her career like MM and those I think sold quite a lot. AKB also falls in this category so I think sometime soon they will pass both Ayu and MM. I don't follow their sales closely, but I imagine they have to be close.

Yeah, but compared to MoMusu's like 30-40+ Single Vs, Ayu has only had like 4 DVD singles total maybe? I recall SURREAL, M, evolution, and vogue~Far away~SEASONS.
Very few artists also have two pretty large concerts a year so it makes sense imo that she would release two. However, I don't know if CDL will continue to be released on its own and may instead be bundled with albums/compilations from now on. AKB's DVD totals are nowhere near ARASHI's so perhaps they won't really overtake MoMusu or Ayu anytime soon? Maybe if they continue this momentum for the next five+ years.

^ I wasn't necassarily comparing Ayu to MM; just saying that both have an abnormally high number of DVD releases which accounts for them being 2 and 3.
If SMAP, B'z, Utada, Namie even etc., had more releases they would most likely make it higher on the list as well.AKBs totals are no where near Arashi's, but who's are? AKB most likely will pass Ayu and MM unfortunately; Ayu and MM both deserve it more imo though.
