On February 17th, Video Research Ltd. released various statistics about the usage of commercials in 2011. As usual, they concentrated their analysis on the three main regions of Japan (Kanto, Kansai, and Nagoya) and the five main commercial networks.

The results show that the amount of commercials slightly decreased in Kanto and Kansai, while in Nagoya the amount slightly increased. Moreover they recorded a sharp increase of commercials categorized as ‘Other Organizations’, which includes the ‘AC Japan‘ commercials that continuously aired after the Great Tohoku Earthquake instead of any other commercials. The number of commercials that are centered around ‘Other Cosmetics’, ‘Mail/Telegraph/Telephone’, and ‘Health Preservation Medicine’ also evenly increased their exposure in all three regions.

When looking at the talents used in commercials, it was actress Ueto Aya that claimed the top in all three regions, despite endorsing less companies than others. It’s her third consecutive year on the top for the Kansai region. In Kanto and Nagoya, young star Kato Seishiro stopped her from reaching a similar streak with his popularity in 2010.

Members of AKB48, especially Maeda Atsuko and Oshima Yuko, experienced the most explosive increase of exposure in commercials. The Kanto top 20 includes seven of their members, while the Kansai and Nagoya rankings even includes eight.
