Well, usually CDs hit stores a day before release anyway. (Wednesday releases are on shelves on Tuesday, and in this case the Saturday release was on shelves on Friday)

I wonder if a lot of people thought it was going to be like LOVE and come out with everything else?

It seems some TA members are in fact boycotting this release because of all the Maro stuff going on but I don't know if that'll have much of an effect on anything in the long run.

Is it has a affectation from the earthquake in Japan?

So I think people are interested in news more than music release I guess.

Wow, I love how there are so many people on this board saying "Get a life."

Instead of condemning, why doesn't anyone try to understand? LOL.

I don't understand, honestly. You guys are so sad.

You guys complain "Oh I want her to sell so many millions again, I want her to be the best, I want her to be number one."

But when the cause of her not getting number one is revealed, "LOL GET A LIFE." Don't be so ignorant.

The earthquake lasted for 5 seconds, and we barely talked about it after the Earthquake happened in the office. So that's not a factor, unfortunately... =/ Wish it was!

Well, I do think that this Maro thing probably shouldn't be affecting people as much as it is. Oh well.

She's making great releases and yes, she deserves the best, but that's life. At the end we should like and listen music just because we enjoy it, not because it has sold millions or it has been number one or the artist doesn't have a *******ing life just because we don't have one and we own her.

I don't care how much this release sells. I still bought it and I love the new songs. Yes huge sales and number ones would be nice but top ten is still really good in my opinion.

I'm not complaining about wanting her to sell millions. Nowhere in this thread or in previous threads of an Oricon charting have I ever said that I want Ayu to go back to her old sales. Because I don't care about sales. Ranking doesn't mean crap to me.

And yes, people who refuse to buy work from an artist because of who they are dating need a life. Of all the things to boycott an artist over lol.

you are actually just as condemning in your post,. (just sayin )
and I didn't realize your office encompassed all of the areas that were effected by the earthquake, glad you could clear that up for us.
(not that I agree with earthquake effecting sales at all, because it doesn't, nor do pathetic fans that want to 'boycott' )

I still say it's a stunt and a stupid one. Too bad for you if you disagree with 99% of her fans who live in a different culture and have a different opinion than you. I hope this stupid stunt brings her career with Avex to a crashing halt so they no longer call the shots in her life. And every dancer including the so called boyfriend will lose their job and no one will have to see her walk hand in hand with a fake boyfriend again.

The pathetic ones are those among her managers who have her promote herself in such a way. Actually it's debatable that it may be more pathetic of the fans who constantly buy it because they've been told they're never lied to. I choose not to believe a liar because they tell me they're honest.

^^ actually I dont think she has ever said that she has never lied to us, so it is fair game.


and honestly if you think she is nothing but a lair, why even be a fan. I just dont understand this at all.

Give her a break!

All these years have been a constant bashing to her. She uses Shuya, complaints. She marries Mannie without making a poll on TA asking her fans to decide if she can or not, complaints She collaborates with Urata, complaints. She shows Timmy on her PVs, complaints. She is half naked on Party Queen cover, complaints because she's the ****ing Virgin Mary. She dates Maro and puts him in her covers, complaints.

Ayu needs to pee. Can she go to the toilet? Please vote:

Yes
No

And if she wanted, or I should say if Avex would allow her to, she could have had another million selling album instead of losing fans over ridiculous stunts. Her music used to sell based on her talents not on her clothes being removed, fake boyfriend and fake husband love stories and being the all. around **** they've been turning her into through images and interviews.

Now they have taken her career to new lows and even departing from Avex will not salvage her career entirely. But if the sales of AGAIN stay so low that she can end her contract with Avex, maybe she can return with higher sales under another label at a later date. What she could have had without the publicity stunts was much greater, but those chances are gone. And fans who don't care or just believe everything used to publicize her career have helped Avex in bringing her to a new low.
