ayu not appearing this year too?

nice list so far! arashi & kuu. :heart

anyway, i can't wait until the final list is announced! and i'm so excited for FNS and other end-of-the-year shows! :yatta

yaaayy kuuuu and... kuuu yaaayy

she's the only one i really know much about on this list. :shrug

can't wait to see who else will be there! hopefully some artists i'm more into!

Yessssssssss WaT will appear <3 But It's nice to see Kobukuro and Koda Kumi here , too. I hope that Ayu will be addet to the list in the next few weeks

oh nice to see miwa^^

Momoko! :heart Good old 80's idol.

I wonder why she will appear though, she and Suzuki have collaborated twice. To my knowledge they haven't planned another collab. They did release a song in 2008. It's Masayuki Suzuki's 30th anniversary, perhaps that is why. Overall, not a bad line-up. Missing a few acts who should be there, but they will probably be added later on. Looking forward to this years show.

Motohiro Hata! :heart Kumi-chan :heart:heart YAAAAAY!! ^^

AKB48, Yes!

This is what you lacked of all these years Fuji Terebi and all those new year festivals!!!!

TAKE THAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!

The only newcomer artist in this year from the list is... miwa right?
She is really something.

Though more artist will be revealed in coming weeks, I'm satisfied enough for this list :D

Yayyy Kuu... that's the only artist I really care about here.

I hope Nishino Kana gets added!

YES <3 AKB48
