Today Fuji TV finally made it official. The dorama "Code Blue" will see its 2nd season in the upcoming winter season and Yamapi will yet again find himself in the getsu9 slot after only 1 season after "Buzzer Beat".

It might be no surprise to see a 2nd season of "Code Blue", after all it achieved a high average rating of 15.6% which gained it the first place back then. This year’s special even had a viewer rating of 23.1%, one of Fuji TV’s best single-episode dorama of 2009. However, it’s still a surprise to see it happen so soon after its original season and a first in the getsu9 history to have one actor occupying this slot twice in only a period of 3 TV seasons.

"You still have it."

Arashi monopolizes top 1-4 spots for first week singles sales of 2009

The five-member group Arashi debuted at the top of single rankings for the week of November 23rd with their new song "My Girl". Following their own "Ashita no Kioku/Crazy Moon ~kimi wa muteki~" (with a first week sales of 502,487 copies, released this May) and "Believe/Kumorinochi, Kaisei" (with a first week sales of 501,988 copies, released this March), they recorded the third highest first week sales of 2009 with sales of 430,000 copies after one week since its release. In addition to this, combined with the fourth highest first week sales for the single "Everything" (released this July) at 342,000 copies, the top four spots of 2009's first week singles sales are all being monopolized by Arashi at this point in time.

Furthermore, this is Arashi's 24th time to capture the the top spot for singles sales, and also their 17th consecutive since "PIKANCHI DOUBLE", released in February of 2004. Even Arashi's "5x10 All the BEST! CLIPS 1999-2009" DVD released on October 28th has recorded sales of over 500,000 copies in two weeks in a thorough display of their popularity. With the year's end, future record-breaking and more, their sales trends are currently drawing much attention.

Regarding this piece of work, not only is it the theme song of fellow member Aiba Masaki's first featured drama, "My Girl" (TV Asahi) which began airing on October 9th, it also includes the coupling track "Tokei Jikake no Umbrella", the theme song to drama "0 Goushitsu no Kyaku" (Fuji TV) which started on the 23rd of the same month.

This is, NHK's Kouhaku will be celebrating its 60th birthday. The program is finalizing the list of artists whom they will invite to this important event.

Last week, Inoue Yousui, an influential figure in the Japanese music scene, has made his predictions on this year's choices of Kouhaku. So far, it is confirmed that Yoshida Takurou, Nakashima Miyuki, Matsutouya Yumi [T/N: all famous old-time singers] will be participating.

Yazawa Eikichi (60) [T/N: an important & influential artist] is also expected to participate in this event, since his CM and concert have become such a hot topic this year.

In addition, Southern All Stars' [another influential group] Hara Yuko, Fukuyama Masaharu, and Amuro Namie are also expected to come to this year's Kouhaku.

"We request for Amuro Namie to perform at NHK's biggest hall, Studio 101, instead of the usual NHK Hall," said her representative.

We also expect to have the idol group AKB48. For ayaka, who's been down with her disease this year, this event is expected to be her last one.

For foreign artists, Richard Carpenter (60) of The Carpenters might make a surprise appearance. "It won't be a special performance, but rather, he'll be playing the piano when other artists sing together," said a representative.

We'll also dedicate some moments to artists who have passed away this year - Michael Jackson, Imawano Kiyoshirou, Kato Kazuhiko, composer Miki Takashi, and actor Morishige Hisaya.
