AKB48 is inaugurated as Kouhaku Uta Gassen's support team
One thing I was wondering, at the costume change between Kaze wa fuiteru and Flying get, were the girls who came on to take the top layer costumes off stage from any of the 48 groups? I thought I recognised one of them but with it being low def, and with me not knowing many of the girls in all the groups I couldn't be sure.
