You were... / BALLAD sales guessing time!

So, essentially we got the two songs and their pvs that everyone in japan will look at when they decide whether to buy the single or not

so: HOW WELL DO YOU THINK THE SALES WILL BE?

I hope it'll break 200K!!!

For me this single deserves better sales than Days/GREEN... +200k

nowadays it's difficult, but D/G almost made it, so at least I hope Yw/B will do as good as d/G did ^^

I want this single to do well because I feel like it's one of her strongest singles. Maybe 150-200k? I really hope it will at least outsell S/S.

I would die.

I think this single deserves to break 200, but that doesn't seem likely.... I'll say between 100 and 150? A little more than S/S, I think...

Definitely more than Sunrise/Sunset. This single is so much better, so I think it will sell better than S/S.

I'm hoping she can get to 200k, which I'm sure she will . This single deserves it.

It's typical winter ballad + asian-influence song just like GREEN/Days, and that one sold like, 190k, right? But it came right after MW, which almost reached 200k as well.

This is one is being released after S/S which pretty much flopped, so I don't think it'll do quite as good...

I'll say 150-200k.

I think the release date is going to affect sales a lot. It won't sell as much as Days/Green because of it.

Between 100 - 150k.

I'm thinking it probably will not sell more than Days/Green simply because neither of the songs are as catchy and easily accessible as Days was. We shall see though.

The sales of Ayu's singles are getting harder and harder to predict. There is practically no chance it will sell less than Sunrise/Sunset, because this time we have an extra edition + the gimmicks. Oh btw the MSta perf seems to have helped the ringtone is back to top3 again.
