[Charts & Rankings] The Official Oricon Thread ~sixxxxxx~

[adantatu2]

Who cares about the #1 peak aside one user of AHS (we know who,lol)?
Of course if your favourite artist get the No.1 you'll be happy, but I think is more important steady sales.

[RealLight]

^ Yep. I'd rather see her end up at #10 with 100k sold more than at #1 with 30k.

[Bigtop]

I still don't understand why DCT still has THAT MUCH fans compared to Ayu. What happened to Ayu's fanbase?????

[attractive nausea]

Seriously, who cares if she's number 1 or number 2 if it's just a matter of 1k or so copies? That must be a 2000's fan thing, where yall were going crazy when she started to sell less than 1 million copies

[chocopockymaster]

Curse you, Dorikamu

[Utena]

I'll blame it on the not so attractive covers ahah
oh well, good enough, at least her sales are now stable, around 30-35k. Not that bad considering the state of the sales overall.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

That's an insane jump in sales. Are they touring?? Did they appear on a music special or something?

It has been answered in some way:

[chocopockymaster]

Groups have something for everyone. With a solo artist, you either like them, or you don't.

[melissalove]

YAY!! Ayu's within the top 3. Praying for 40k. Sixxxxx might sale close to what A One sold. Very excited!!

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

So there's still a chance that she will get #1?

[TriStar]

No, oricon already confirmed in a news article that DCT got weekly 1.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^Ah, thanks. Disappointing for sure, but not too surprising of life changing. :/

[Sunrise]

That's so lame that she lost the #1 after so much anticipation. On the bright side, this is her 49th top 10 album! Hopefully the next release will be her 50th!

^ and Hopefully her next release will top 100K , being #1 or not

^ and while we're dreaming, I'd like a pony for Christmas.

What I mean to say is--it's important to be realistic about these things.

[KuuXAyu-fan]

I'm not sure about another studio album hitting 100k but I do think an A Best 3 or A COMPLETE 2 could even reach 250-300k+ with the right marketing. We'll just have to wait and see i guess lol

[RealLight]

Yeah, for a studio album, it's gonna be almost impossible to reach 100k.

Her next BEST might slightly go over that mark, but knowing the current state of her sales right know, I'm affraid it won't even reach that e.e but, as KuuXAyu-fan said, we'll have to wait and see.

Well, sure, but how many rolls of toilet paper would avex have to produce for that campaign? Let's be real here lol. Avex's idea of promotion these days is sidewalk chalk, latte foam designs, and a live performance on a late night 3 a.m. infomercial for bowel regularity.
