As previously, FUJI TV broadcast live “Johnnys Countdown 2015 – 2016”. They held a survey, asking fans “What song do you want to hear?” and “Which two Johnnys do you want to see together?”.
Arashi hosted the show. V6, who stayed for Kohaku appeared via VTR. JUMP, who held their own Countdown Live at Kyocera Dome in Osaka, performed for JCD via livestream. The broadcast started with the groups singing a song as voted by fans, followed by a collaboration medley, group song shuffle medley, KAT-TUN 10th anniversary medley, Kinki Kids 20th anniversary medley, and the Top 5 Dream Duet with a surprise appearance. Check out the performances below. Song Shuffle Medley Kanjani8 – Cha Cha Cha Champion (Sexy Zone) TOKIO – Musekinin Hero (Kanjani8) Sexy Zone – Love You Only (TOKIO) Hey!

Totally didn't expect that JCD will be this awesome! I'm really happy that J&A let Arashi, Kanjani8 and TOKIO back at the Countdown tbh. It's nice seeing them with the rest of Johnny's group again.
The medleys are nice. I almost cried when Yokoo sang Chinen's line in Ultra Music Power lmao that was hilarious Arashi-NEWS change medley. My two favorite groups~ 2-Shot performances were all soo good! Kawai must have been delighted to perform with Jun^^ And Shuji to Akira, Subaru and Takki it's so nice to see them on a stage together!!! Ohno sang really well. I almost thought that he can't sing that good anymore after all the lipsynced perf they did in the past years. I'm glad his voice is still beautiful as ever. His collab with Higashi was pure perfection!
I loved all the performances. Bokura no Machi de was great Tsubasa looked so good, I missed him I loved Kitayama and Okura duet.
These two Takki and Subaru Shuji to Akira! Shuji to Akira! Shuji to Akira! Shuji to Akira! Anybody knows the backstory of Kitayama/Tacchon? Fuma/Sho was kinda random too but it might be because they look like twins (both has luscious lips, keio grads) I was a but sad watching Tsubasa.
It might be the medication he's taking (probably steroid) but his dancer lithe is almost gone. His voice is gruffier too.

Fuma's dad is the lyricist of A-RA-SHI and Fuma has always said he looks up to Sho the most. And Okura has been a very close friend of Kitayama since his junior days. They're besties.
