Now your telling me that even sales from the arena are not properly counted. What is up with Oricon?

Oversea sales aren't counted because they don't help mapping the japanese market, as they aren't made by japanese people. It's like Billboard giving Rihanna a good ranking because her song sold well in France, even if the song flopped on the USA. Venue sales aren't fully counted because labels were inflating those...

I wonder if their Japanese fans care about it, I mean, it's so easy to gather a movement of 300 fans and change this positions...

[visionfactory]

They don't care, if they care Ami Suzuki's debut single would have sold 100,000 and not 99,999 And evolution would have made it to the million too...

And you know the japanese are not very good at moving masses

When you put it like that it makes all the sense in the world. Still,I wish the support of the international fans could count for something!

^avex and ayu are getting cash for our support, don't forget it. And they track our copies too. It's just that they don't report it to oricon.

A ONE went back to #28 yesterday

[ayumisrael]

[KuuXAyu-fan]

[Matt_rq]

Wow! Go Ayu!

I think A ONE will increase more in the weeks of the tour final when she will sing more songs from A ONE

Who said these additional songs will be from this album? :-P
I personally expect new songs from mini-album.

[holy_arrow]

just like Tour 2010, she sang almost the new songs from the latest album/single.
I still wait for her "The GIFT", "Story",... performances

Story would be perfect for encore.

I do think so
However, I hope "The GIFT" can replace forgiveness.
