Caps:

From the strong feelings she displayed when it was announced that AKB48 won the award, we can tell that she's feeling very much responsible for the group now and is putting pressure on herself to be the next ace. We feel your ambition, love and passion. With these feelings, she is definitely worthy of being the next ace. Go Mayuyu! Go AKB48!

On December 30th, the annual music awards show, ”The 54th Kagayaku! Japan Record Awards” was held, and announced that AKB48’s “Manatsu no Sounds good!” (written by Akimoto Yasushi, composed and arranged by Inoue Yoshimasa) has received the grand prize “Japan Record Award.” This is the second consecutive year for AKB48 to receive the award since they won the award with “Flying Get” last year.

Winning the “Japan Record Award” successively has been achieved by Hosokawa Takashi (1982 ~ 1983), Nakamori Akina (1985 ~ 1986), Amuro Namie (1996 ~ 1997), Hamasaki Ayumi (2001 ~ 2003), and EXILE (2008 ~ 2010), thus AKB48 is the first female group to accomplish it.

The general manager of AKB48 groups, Takahashi Minami shed tears, and said, “I am truly happy. Last year, we were desperate to grab the award, but his year, we felt like we must win it as the second chapter for AKB48 has begun. I am proud that we were able to get this award when there are so many great artists here.”

Watanabe Mayu also commented, “As Maeda-san graduated, we, the ones who are left, need to make AKB….”, she then had to stop right there, as she could not hold herself, but cry. She continued tearfully, “I am very happy. While being proud of this, I would like to continue trying our best. Though we felt some pressure, receiving the award will make us gain confidence, and I hope it will bring another good accomplishment.”

Mayuyu was featured on Yahoo Japan homepage and hot words on twitter:

Mayuyu's blog 121231 「ありがとうございました！＼(^o^)／まゆゆ」

こんばんは、まゆゆです。
Good evening, it’s Mayuyu here.

いよいよ今年も残りあと僅かとなりました。
There’s only a little time left for this year.

昨日は、
Yesterday

第54回輝く！日本レコード大賞
が行われました。
There was “The 54th Kagayaku! Japan Record Awards.

昨年、私たちAKB48は大賞を取らせていただきました。
Last year, we AKB48 was able to win the grand prize.

今年もなんとしてでも大賞を取りたい！
And this year too, we won the award.

そう思い、挑みました。
We had challenged thinking like that.

今年一年、AKB48は様々な出来事がありました。
This year, a lot of things had happened in AKB48.

その中でも、やはり長年の夢だった東京ドームコンサートの実現,
And in all of that, I think the biggest events are when our long dream had finally come true,
そして、前田敦子さんの卒業は大きかったと思います。
And Maeda Atsuko-san’s graduation.

前田さんが卒業されてからの、第二章へと突入したAKB48として挑むレコード大賞。
We took this award as the AKB48 that had been rushing into the second chapter of ourselves after Maeda-san had graduated.
ここで大賞を取らなかったら、AKBが終わりになってしまう。
そんな気がして、とても怖かったです。
If we didn’t won the award, AKB may have been done for now. When I had that feeling, I was so scared.

大賞を受賞させていただいた真夏のSounds good！では、前田さんのポジションを務めさせていただきました。
In this Manatsu no Sounds good! that was able to win the prize, I danced in Maeda-san’s position.
この曲は、世代交代が表れている曲です。
This song shows the change in generation.
元々は、前田さんとペアでダンスを踊らせていただていました。
I danced in pair with Maeda-san in the first place.
でも今回は、私が前田さんのポジションへ。
But this time, I was in Maeda-san’s position.
しっかりと勤めなければ、と思えば思うほどプレッシャーに押し潰されてしまいそうになりましたが、ここで全部出し切らなければ意味が無い、と自分に言い聞かせて挑みました。
I was thinking that I have to do well a lot so I did push myself into pressures, but then I told myself that if I didn’t do my best here then it had no meaning and I fought.

この曲で大賞を受賞させていただけたら、AKB48はこれからも前へと進んでいける。
私はそう思いました。
If we could win the grand prize with this song, AKB may be able to move forward. That’s what I think.

そして、
And also,
大賞受賞作品の発表で真夏のSounds good！のタイトルを呼んでいただけた時は、大賞に選んでいただけた事の嬉しさももちろんありましたが、何より、緊張、プレッシャーからの開放、そして一気に安心してしまい、思わず涙が出てしまいました。
When they called Manatsu no Sounds good! for the Best work award, of course we had the happiness of being chosen for the award, but over all, the freedom from worries and pressure, and being relieved at once, were why I unintentionally cried.
昨年の大賞受賞の時とは、また違った嬉しさと感情を抱いている自分に、今年一年成長できたのかなと思いました。
I wondered if I had grown up this year after last year, when I had the different feelings and happiness when we won the award.

本当に大賞が取れてよかった。
I’m glad that we were able to win the prize.
前田さんが卒業してしまったからって、AKB48は終わってしまうわけではありません。
Even though Maeda-San had graduated, AKB48 will not end here.
AKB48はこれからも、更に更に上を目指して進んでゆく。
From now on AKB48 will continue to aim even higher and move forward. 新たなスタートを昨日きれた気がして、ほっとしました。
I was relieved when I felt that the new start would started from yesterday.

ここまで頑張ってきて良かったです。
I’m glad that I have been working hard until now.
たかみなさんの言うとおり、努力は必ず報われるんだと思います。
頑張った分だけ、いい事があります。
Like Takamina-san said, I think that efforts will be rewarded. Good things will happen as you work hard.
これからも、諦めずに前向きに頑張ろう。
From now on, let’s try our best without giving up and look straight forward.

最近、一日一秒を大切に過ごしてゆきたいと、今まで以上に強く思うようになりました。
それは、毎日が充実しているからだと思います。
Nowadays, I am able to appreciate every second, everyday passed and continue to move forward strongly than ever.

こうした素晴らしい日々を過ごす事ができているのも、いつも支えて下さっているファンの皆様のおかげです。
It is also thanks to all the fans that I was able to spend these wonderful days. 本当に本当にありがとうございます。
Thank you, really thank you very much. 言葉だけでは伝わらない程の感謝の気持ちで満ち溢れています。
I’m filled with gratitude that can’t be expressed by words.

これからも、皆さんに沢山笑顔になっていただけるように、楽しい毎日を過ごしていただけるように、頑張って参ります!
From now on I will also try my best so that everyone can smile a lot and so that I am able to have interesting days.

まだまだ未熟な私たちですが、これからもAKB48の応援を宜しくお願いします！
Please keep on supporting us inexperienced AKB48!

今年一年、お世話になりました。 I’ve been in all of your cares this year.
本当にありがとうございました！ Thank you very much!

まゆゆより

こんばんは、まゆゆです。
Good evening, Mayuyu here.

いよいよ今年も残りあと僅かとなりました。
Finally it left still a few time before the end of this year as well.

昨日は、
Yesterday

第54回輝く！日本レコード大賞
it was held the “54th KAGAYAKU!

が行われました。
Japan Record Award”.

昨年、私たちAKB48は大賞を取らせていただきました。
The last year we, AKB48, took the prize.

今年もなんとしてでも大賞を取りたい！
This year we got it again but we wanted to take it!

そう思い、挑みました。
With such a thought we made a challenge.

今年一年、AKB48は様々な出来事がありました。
For the whole year various things happened in AKB48.

その中でも、やはり長年の夢だった東京ドームコンサートの実現、
Among those things, I think the most important ones were the concert at Tokyo Dome our long awaited dream which finally came true

そして、前田敦子さんの卒業は大きかったと思います。
and , Maeda Atsuko-san’s graduation.

前田さんが卒業されてからの、第二章へと突入したAKB48として挑むレコード大賞。
Since Maeda-san graduated AKB48 did break into this 2nd chapter so as AKB48 we got this Record Award as a challenge.

ここで大賞を取らなかったら、AKBが終わりになってしまう。
If we didn’t get this important prize, AKB48 would have been over.

そんな気がして、とても怖かったです。
Feeling in such a way I felt very scared.

大賞を受賞させていただいた真夏のSounds good！では、前田さんのポジションを務めさせていただきました。
We received this important prize and I tried very hard to can get Maeda-san’s position in Manatsu no Sounds good!

この曲は、世代交代が表れている曲です。
In this song the change in ganaration is evident.

元々は、前田さんとペアでダンスを踊らせていただていました。
Originally I had to dance with Maeda-san as a pair.

でも今回は、私が前田さんのポジションへ。
But this time I took Maeda-san’s position.

しっかりと勤めなければ、と思えば思うほどプレッシャーに押し潰されてしまいそうになりましたが、ここで全部出し切らなければ意味が無い、と自分に言い聞かせて挑みました。
I thought that I had to do it well enough so I did push myself into pressure, but then I told myself: “if I won’t be able to do it here, then everything will have no meaning” so I worked hard.

この曲で大賞を受賞させていただけたら、AKB48はこれからも前へと進んでいける。
If we were able to win this important prize, then AKB48 is able to keep go on.

私はそう思いました。
That’s what I think.

そして、
Moreover,

大賞受賞作品の発表で真夏のSounds good！のタイトルを呼んでいただけた時は、大賞に選んでいただけた事の嬉しさももちろんありましたが、何より、緊張、プレッシャーからの開放、そして一気に安心してしまい、思わず涙が出てしまいました。
When the tile of Manatsu no Sound good! was called out for the Best Work Award, we felt the happiness for being been choosen of course, but above all, we felt the liberation from worries and pressure, and the peace of mind at once, where my tears came out unitentionally.

昨年の大賞受賞の時とは、また違った嬉しさと感情を抱いている自分に、今年一年成長できたのかなと思いました。
When we won the same prize last year, my feelings and happiness were different, so I wonder if I’m grown up during the whole current year.

本当に大賞が取れてよかった。
I’m truly glad that we won the prize.

前田さんが卒業してしまったからって、AKB48は終わってしまうわけではありません。
AKB48 won’t be over just because Maeda-san graduated.

AKB48はこれからも、更に更に上を目指して進んでゆく。
From now on AKB48 well keep to move forward and to aim even , even higher.

新たなスタートを昨日きれた気がして、ほっとしました。
When I felt that there would be a new start from yesterday I felt relieved.

ここまで頑張ってきて良かったです。
I’m glad that I’ve been doing my best until now.

たかみなさんの言うとおり、努力は必ず報われるんだと思います。
As Takamina-san says, I think that efforts will be rewarded.

頑張った分だけ、いい事があります。
Only if you work hard great things will happen.

これからも、諦めずに前向きに頑張ろう。
From now on let’s work hard keeping face forward and without give up.

最近、一日一秒を大切に過ごしてゆきたいと、今まで以上に強く思うようになりました。
Recently I’m able to appreciate every single time of every day and I came to believe more strong than ever.

それは、毎日が充実しているからだと思います。
It’s because every day will be a full day that I think that.

こうした素晴らしい日々を過ごす事ができているのも、いつも支えて下さっているファンの皆様のおかげです。
And it’s also thanks to all of you fans, who always support me, if I’m able to spend such a great time every day.

本当に本当にありがとうございます。
Really, really, thank you very much.

言葉だけでは伝わらない程の感謝の気持ちで満ち溢れています。
I’m so frateful that I can’t express it by words.

これからも、皆さんに沢山笑顔になっていただけるように、楽しい毎日を過ごしていただけるように、頑張って参ります！
From now on, in order to can make everyone smile and in order to can spend wonderful days I’ll continue to work hard!

According to this article hosted on Yahoo Japan, the 54th Japan Record Awards' ratings (16.6% in the Kanto region) was up compared to the previous year. They are suggesting the AKB48 effect. Strange when you consider AKB48 won the previous year.

I like to think it's the Mayuyu and Gakky effect

2nd source: http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/movie/2020309/full/?cat_id=tw

2012 ratings 16.6% in the Kanto region
2011 ratings 14.9%
2010 ratings 15.0%
2009 ratings 13.5%
