Is she only skipping this year or forever?  MSSL is nice but Kouhaku has always been more grand in a way...

Pretty sure she has "graduated" from kouhaku. She won't be doing it again. I wouldn't be as dramatic as to say that it's the final nail in her coffin, though. She's good. Not as popular, but as long as she continues to make good music, I'll always follow and support her.
