utada is releasing her single on the 28 ~~ so there is still a chance for heer to be number 1 next week
but ai otsuka is releasing a new single .. so ~~ just wait n see

I myself agree with bates. I'm happy to see her on the top five however I must say this single really deserved #1. What surprised me was how fairyland and STEP you got #1 while HEAVEN didn't.

If the single didnt get number 1, then it didnt deserve number 1.

^ That's just an opinion. I highly believe this single deserved a #1 but I'm happy she is in the top five.

Meh, I think it was a great single, and go her for being in the top 5. I'd be more worried about overall sales than ranking =/

I don´t care what chart position Ayu has or how many records she sells, because that doesn´t make her songs better or worser for me....

I'm not upset by this. Even if she doesn't hit #1 (#3 is still really good!) I'll still love her. So she's not at the top. It's not the end of the world. Give it time, I guess. I really don't see how it's anything to get upset over.

I dont' really know the charting of all of her singles, but still I think #3 is pretty decent for any artist

Sure some of us would have liked to her to go on #1 on her the daily debut with the single, but hey so what? sorry but HEAVEN isn't all that much of an amazing ballad, in my opinion. I still think she should have done Will as the single on it's own...

Told u guys her popularity is dropping fast.. you guys don't beleive me she no longer appeals to her older audience but just school kids now in Japan. Everyone is in the korean heat wave and loving Ai, Koda and BoA Avex did this to themselves and with DAI disbanding Tamiko Van may be their only hope she can equal to Ayu.

So many people complaining... and I bet some (or even most) of the people who say "OMG she;s not 1st! how can this happen? japanese people suck etc etc" haven't even bought the single themselves...

For me it looks like this: I'm already waiting for two copies of the single (CD+DVD and CD-only) - and that's what counts for me

As far as I hear, there are two reasons for this irregular result.
1. i-Tunes music store service has started recently and many fans bought the songs through this service this time instead of buying the single.
2. avex sent many CDs to the movie theatres to sell them there while "Shinobi" is on, and there are not enough CDs in the music shops now.
