I'm in Tokyo now and it feels good to know that my purchase of Ayu's new single actually contributed to the sales figures this time.
 I bought it at HMV in Shibuya and when I went all of the copies were gone. I had to ask a shop attendant and they got one from in the back. Koda Kumi's album was selling well too. Compared to Ayu's other album and single releases though Avex has really low balled this one promotion wise. I've only seen one billboard for it and that was in Shibuya and I probabally wouldn't have seen it had I not been specifically looking for it. Also on the release day, Avex sent out a street team w/ a table, megaphone etc only it was to promote Koda Kumi, not Ayu. I haven't seen any commercials for Startin/Born to Be or seen anything in the trains. Weird. I was in Japan when Step You came out last year and there was a lot more promotion I thought.

Ugh that sucks. I wish avex would promote Ayu rather than Koda only more because she's after all a good artist.

I guess albums have more priority over the singles? :\
Like, if someone had a single and Ayu released an album the same day.. obviously Ayu would have a street team :p xD I dunno ;-; I just hope Startin' doesn't flop terribly. >> Which is highly unlikely.

hmmm.... I tried to be realistic.... that to hit 1 million or maybe at least surpass 300K.,.... need the single to be as good as B'z - Ocean or maybe Sheisun amigo... or maybe Nakashima Mika - Glamorous sky.... and I thought startin is not as good as all of them..... ^^ but it still way BETTER than any single.... heehhehehee

Indeed it is so. Well it's no big news. avex has been trying to get a replacement for Ayu since forever and seems they've finally found somebody. I'm happy Ayu still has a strong fanbase though

jasjasss, the dates are still wrong
 CDs always enter the charts (if they sell enough) one day before the release. If you check oricon you'll see Startin' / Born to Be...: 07-03-2006 = 1st 08-03-2006 = 1st =) And yay for Ayu having ANOTHER #1 hit

Not too bad, it's stayed there longer than B&D ever did.
I'd think that an album would get more promotion than a single too, but Koda's album had better sell well with all the promotion she's getting.
