Karen, I've already said this on the Kisumai thread, but I hope you're really excited because Kis-My-Ft2 gets invited to the Kouhaku for the first time ever!
Hinatazaka46 also gets their debut Kouhaku invite as well. And so does anisong singer LiSA - probably the one that I didn't expect, because she's also in the Kouhaku for the first time as well! (@mellody?)
