It's 2015!!!

Belated Merry Christmas! 
(I somehow messed up my scheduled Christmas post.)

Yuihan and Rie.

and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Watched NHK's Kouhaku.  Last year's show was better.  Golden Bomber didn't do anything super crazy.
HKT48 started the show with and energetic "Melon Juice".

SKE48 soon followed.  SKE48's costume change was really cool.

NMB48 was right after.  Nothing special.

AKB48 performed "Kokoro no Placard" near the end of the show.  How they revealed their placards was neat.

In the end, White Team won again this year.
