We at Nippon Television Network Corporation (Nippon TV) are proud to announce that all of our regular programs proved their remarkable strength once again for the entire year of 2015. "The Quest" captured an average annual viewer rating of 19.2%, topping the charts for regular programs aired by commercial broadcasters. "THE TETSUWAN DASH" (2nd place with an average annual viewer rating of 18.3%), with its popular and highly sought-after events such as DASH Island and 0 Yen Cafeteria, welcomed its 20th anniversary on the air and continues to evolve successfully with the changing times.

Last year, Nippon TV also broadcasted the Rugby World Cup in England. The Japan vs Samoa match posted a stellar viewer rating of 19.3% and to this day, the Japanese team's outstanding performance remains fresh in our memories.

In the year ahead, we will continue to deliver entertainment across many genres and work tirelessly to remain the most-loved broadcaster in Japan.
