When it comes to merch sales, it is almost always comparing within the season. This is where March got her short end of the stick.

If the second Pixielocks to Pretty Cure Pretty Store is any indication, the stores are fairly efficient at keeping the merchandise on shelf fresh. It is barely a month into Star Twinkle, most of the Hugtto merch is already gone. Shouldn't it be the All Stars Memories movie few previous season merch would be there at all.

If this kind of efficiency have been stuck, it explains why despite an above-average overall popularity March is still regarded as a commericial failure. March had an underwhelming merch sales during her season, and once Dokidoki came all Smile merch are gone within weeks and her low sales number get cemented.
