A BEST 2 only included pre-Secret stuff, so if she includes Secret era onwards it'd be even better. A COMPLETE did include Secret, but it's a single best, and ayu includes album tracks on her regular best's, so I think she does a good amount of hits to include

During its release, it was announced A Best 2 would cover from evolution single to Bold & Delicious single, so even (miss)understood album tracks may be on A Best 3...

![]() (sighs) This is going to be one nightmare (putting a pun on Dreams Come True to Ayu) that Ayu fans are going to have to deal with. That bitter pill Ayu and her fans have to take all because of DCT... Come on Japan, give Ayu a chance at #1!!! Koda Kumi got #1 this year, Namie got #1 (among albums)...#WhyNotAyu??? Clearly this wasn't fair! How could a month-old BEST album outrun Ayu??? For one last time...this is plain old stupid. Stupid Oricon!!! |

lol Bigtop having a meltdown if any artiste he 'supports' doesn't get #1 , epic
I support/listen to so many artistes & not everyone of them has any #1's in their catalogue but do they care ? No , they still continue to release music as it's #1 or #100 , it's no big deal , really

Out of curiosity... All of those 47 songs released after Bold & Delicious either got certifications, huge youtube view numbers, had strong tie-ins, above average sales, were said by her team to be popular among her fandom or are frequently played at her concerts:
Ladies Night 1 LOVE Startin' JEWEL BLUE BIRD talkin' 2 myself decision Together When... Marionette glitter MY ALL EnergizE Sparkle Rule Days Microphone Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~ Lady Dynamite Sunrise ~LOVE is ALL You were... RED LINE Love song Last Angel crossroad MOON Last angel Virgin Road progress BRILLANTE how beautiful you are Party queen Wake me up Song 4 u SAKURA You & Me XOXO Feel the Love Hello new me Pray Merry-Go-Round Last Minute Zutto... The Gift Movin' on Without you The Show Must Go On Step by step Summer Diary A Best 2 had 30 old tracks + Part of me... A lot of those songs were pretty big, so I guess A Best 3 would perform well. |

Wow still in top 10!
Sales must be really bad this week, except for DCT of course ![]() |

We will see if DCT can stay almost 2 years mostly on recochoku's top 5 like A BEST does
![]() But it's great for DCT to stir interest with their hits so far this point in their career. sixxxxxx is already doing good enough. |

Really, 30k for a mini-album is a great result! Especially in an Oricon world full of gimmicks (not aimed at DCT, more aimed at the countless K-pop/J-pop idols with their handshakes and entry to events/concerts for buying X number of copies of their single...). I'm not familiar if Ayu had any, but I'm guessing not.
Dreams Come True's best-of sold so well because it is a 3-disc career best-of priced insanely well. 3500 yen for 50 songs! Compare that to 1800-3200 yen for Ayu's 6 songs. I don't think them being a group is the reason why it sells so well. They are very well respected and for good reason. They're versatile with their music, especially in the last decade. Someone similarly well respected, Yuming, released a best-of that was exactly the same: career best-of, 50-ish songs for 3500 yen, and it sold just as well as DCT's. The Oricon chart is becoming less relevant. You can't really compare numbers between artists anymore like you could 10, 20 years ago. It went from being like comparing peaches and plums to comparing peaches and dog food. Uh yeah, they're both food...and that's it. So don't be upset Ayu lost to a release so completely different to her. She still had the best-selling original album (mini or full) for the week! Good job Ayu! |

Now this makes me wonder...from Arama Japan: "Ayumi Hamasaki sheds tears on NHK SONGS; netizens react" - http://aramajapan.com/netizencomment...s-react/21174/ It makes me wonder...did NHK SONGS hurt Ayu's run for #1 instead of help? Because if so, I think we've got big lessons to learn here... |
