They could have doubled those sales EASILY if she had sung Doki Doki Baby on Coming Soon instead of the other a-side...

She could have sung the best song ever written and the sales would be exactly the same.

Sales-wise, Mano does pretty well for a soloist. She outsells Buono, which has 2 of H!P's superstars, and she comes within a few thousand of Berryz and C-ute. This is despite having some pretty lame songs, IMHO.



My guess is that she's quite profitable for UFA. They probably pays her peanuts, since she's so low on the seniority ladder. And she sells a ton of merchandise as well. It helps that she's incredibly pretty and likable.



Her sales are declining, but that's just the reality of every H!P act these days. The problem is with the organization, not the individual acts.

I don't believe that is true AT ALL. Doki Doki baby is a really catchy song, whereas the other a-side even though it's a great song, it takes really listening to it to like it.

I like this noob. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /dance.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':dance:' />



I agree, the greatest song of all might have added 1,000 more copies at least. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':tongue:' />
