On February 27, Video Research Ltd. once again released various statistics about the usage of commercials in 2012. 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 overall amount of commercials slightly increased again in all three regions compared to the previous year. Looking at both types of commercials, they noticed that spots that air in between programs have declined, but commercials that air during a program recorded a slight increase again. It was an expected change after the 2011 results that were greatly influenced by the Great Tohoku Earthquake.

Commercials related to communication and web services made it to the top in the Kanto region, but the biggest rise was once again recorded the by automobile commercials with at least 20% more exposure of general automobile commercials and at least 70% more exposure of light passenger car commercials in all three regions.

As for the image characters used in commercials, actress Ueto Aya was once again able to claim the top position in the Kanto and Kansai regions. It's her 4th consecutive year on top for the Kansai region and her 2nd consecutive year for the Kanto region. The repeat of last year's triple victory was smashed by fellow actress Takei Emi who took over the Nagoya region.

A huge boost was experienced by actress Gouriki Ayame who only ranked 388 and lower in the previous year, and now made it into the top 4 in all of the regions. As usual, the members of AKB48 are very present in commercials as well. The group can boast 8 members in the top 20 of Kanto and Kansai, and 7 members in the top 20 of Nagoya (still including Maeda Atsuko).

You can check out the talent rankings below!
