Ah, why is the French Kiss sales always so low?

I have bought the CD, and there shouldn't be any reason why they are doing so badly.

Songs and MVs are all pretty good, but still...

The entertainment industry is tough, huh...

Indeed I have ordered Type A, and want to get the Theatre Edition because Yukirin's solo song is amazing...

One problem is the crowded release schedule. There is an AKB-related single released almost every week. Its also been 8 months since French Kiss's last single, so the momentum isn't there. Also, its worth noting that Akicha and Kuramochi fell during the last election, and Yukirin only held onto 3rd, despite Acchan's absence, so the FK members popularity isn't at a high right now.
