The story
In the “Star Makers” segment of Fuji TV’s Nonstop! on September 30, the behind-the-scenes work of Juice=Juice and Rosy Chronicle was featured. On 5ch’s Hello! Project board, fans reacted with surprise that the segment aired earlier than expected, and comments poured in over the rehearsal footage shown afterward. The footage also showed someone believed to be the choreographer, sparking some lighthearted banter about how buff he’s gotten. After the feature wrapped, actress Shinobu Otake then appeared, prompting a wave of “no way” reactions.

What people said
Thought it'd be later in the show
Almost missed this one!
Sensei keeps getting more ripped
Whoa, gotta be grateful for that
It's a holdover from the Tanihara era — the 9 o'clock hour is hard news, entertainment segments start after 9:50
And longer features run past 10:00
So it'll straddle 10:10 pretty much automatically, no adjustment needed
Background and Discussion Points
Nonstop! is a Fuji TV information program airing weekday mornings, and “Star Makers” is a segment showcasing the behind-the-scenes side of idols and other talent. On the thread, users noted that the segment airs around the 10:10 mark almost every time, pointing out that this is a holdover from the scheduling policy set back when Shosuke Tanihara was the show’s MC — hard news in the 9 o’clock hour, entertainment coverage from 9:50 onward. The person seen in the lesson footage is believed to be Eiichi Sugai, who has long handled choreography for Hello! Project; the “getting buffer” comments weren’t meant as an insult but rather lighthearted banter among fans surprised by his physique change. Shinobu Otake’s appearance was a separate segment from the Juice=Juice feature, but the back-to-back airing order is what generated buzz — further details of the broadcast aren’t given in the source text.
