Idk who this Gaku Ishida is, but his wife is a big Ayu fan and she received a surprise present for their wedding anniversary from Ayu (they married on Ayu's birthday). She immediately wrote a thank you letter to Ayu while watching a live of hers.
He is thanking Ayu in this tweet.

Ok, he's a comedian.

There is a ranking of best selling japanese artists with physical and digital sales combined (Oricon + RIAJ) Ayu is at #2 with 66.02 millions and remains the best selling solo artist. I think this is not an "official" ranking (posted by Oricon or RIAJ) but the numbers are correct so those are her current sales

@Evan Odison:
That's interesting, do you have a link to the post?
Kuu's is not right e.g., she's at 35 million with recochoku and 13 million with physical through Oricon, so at least at 48 million.
Also Ayu must be a bit higher as well, as recochoku already reported more than 30 million digital sales for her + her 50 million physical sales.

You are right, this is counted by a baidu user with only RIAJ certifications, he didn't used recochoku info

Ok, RIAJ counts recochoku as well, but for the public they only publish certifications for single songs and albums and not total numbers, so there's a bunch missing. So the user counted Oricon and song certifications by RIAJ.
Thanks for clarifying.

That's right, only Oricon + RIAJ, if we add recochoku all of them would have higher sales, I wonder if there's an official recochoku count so we could get the exact total
