It seems that C-ute are the only group with growing sales (even though the difference is really small but still they're not dropping)...
Natsu Dakara really is worth selling more but it's okay.. I get the point of the 2 PVs but they should really consider promoting Buono! a little more than what they're doing now

Is it because they stopped the double A-side, or is it because they lost the Inazuma tie-in?

Ditto for Buono. They lost the Shugo Chara tie-in and then went on a one-year hiatus, so… what did you really expect?

Very true, But in Buono!'s case, Zassou was after the loss of Shugo Chara and after the hiatus and it still sold better than Natsu Dakara, so I think that's the concern for them.

Because they dropped the double A-side. Maji Bomber and Shining Power were still Inazuma endings, but not double A-sides, so those didn't sell as much as Otakebi/Tomodachi, Ryuusei Boy/Danna-sama or SBG/Rival. And then they lost the Inazuma tie-in, and numbers got even worse And it doesn't help that Tsunku ruined them.

IMO to all the comments above..

the problem is that for people in general change is hard..
the biggest example is MM . after the ones who made MM famous left (changed) the sales started to decrees.
after berryz changed from 2 a-sides and the tie in and tsunku wanting to make them sexy sales dropped.


and it is true that c-ute sales are steady and thats good but C-ute hasnt had that many changes. exept for 2 members leaving

c-ute singles always have the same patter
its always a sexy/mature song, then a cute one, then another cute one and then another sexy/mature..

People get bored and find something else to entertain them. Buono wasn't the sort of thing to have diehard fans in the first place, and a hiatus and lack of TV OP or ED promotion wasn't going to help.
