I saw on twitter that all the version of the album were out of stock in several stores like HMV so I assume they really didn't expect it to sell so the stock was low.

I think she’d have more luck with Jujutsu Kaisen, but I do wish she’d do a major anime/videogame tie-up again. It would seriously help.

It peaked at #2 and looking at how it is selling it gives me the impression that animes tie-in are driving the sales for solo acts. The solo male singers from the EXILE TRIBE from this generation are reaching 50K maximum from what I saw though.

Yeah, like LiSA, and I saw how Ku’s most streamed song on Spotify is the one she sang for Black Clover.
If she can get a tie in for One Piece, My Hero or even Black Clover.. that will be great |

Hope it is indeed because of a lot of people buying it and not because of a lack of stocks due to the covid situation...

I find the sales + position to be great for what this album is tbh. I think It’s what avex expected as well. Probably it’ll reach 15k+ so yeah, congrats to Ayu!
On the other hand, the possibility that the numbers have anything to do with the contents of this album and they’ll keep dropping kinda scares* me. I believe she would do great (20k+) with a studio album but who knows... *im kinda traumatized because Tommy heavenly stopped releasing music due to low sales. It’s all her fault. Edit: anyway, why should I worry about physical sales at all? Lol She’s doing great on streaming. I forget we’re in 2021. Last edited by Toniayu123; 13th April 2021 at 01:08 AM. |

It sold similar to A7 Classical which probably cost the same thing to do(But the price of A ballads 2 is much more expensive)

Unboxing video of TA version 2 cd/2 dvd
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_ztKYfgIb8 Yeah, the worst part is that she keeps teasing that there's new music coming but then doesn't follow through. She answers questions online all the time but always dodges questions about new music and just releases goods that nobody asked for. I think people would rediscover Tommy and get some sales if they put out a new buriguri album, but that probably won't happen.... Last edited by AJFmzk; 13th April 2021 at 01:45 AM. |

Looks like avex knew since the beginning it wasn't become a best-seller. Hmmm... Is it going to reach 15K or 20K?

I’m not sure it’s only ayu though.
I’m hearing around that recently Avex is in a pinch and it has money problems. Rather than physical CDs, at least with ayu they try to get money from lives (which became a problem because of corona) and selling goods (and I suppose online stuff). That’s why I also think ayu concentrated on touring rather than making new music these past couple of years. I’m not sure about other avex acts though, avex is nowhere and nowhere in the leading acts label nowadays unfortunately. |

I know it's a hypothetical and strange scenery, but I was thinking about that a lot since avex financial issues popped up a while ago.
