TBS All-Star Thanksgiving marathon and special updates

Overview

The 70th anniversary special of the TBS variety program ‘All-Star Thanksgiving’ featured singer Ano as the overall winner, earning 1 million yen. A major highlight was the ‘Akasaka 5-chome Mini Marathon’, which saw an increase in participation to 24 runners, moving host Wakako Shimazaki to tears.

In the ‘All-Star Thanksgiving 2026 Autumn’ special, NMB48 member Mako Sakashita achieved overall victory in the Akasaka 5-chome Mini Marathon, becoming the first woman to win the event in 25 years. Sakashita attributed her success to intense mountain training and expressed pride in bringing a victory to NMB48. Sakura Inoue, who previously placed 5th in the 70th anniversary special, also participated, noting her excitement on social media regarding her performance.

The 2026 broadcast also generated mixed online reactions. Some viewers criticized swimwear segments featuring assistant girls Sumire Kudo and Marina Fujita as outdated, though the performers stated they enjoyed the experience. Additionally, the appearance of comedian Hiccorohee raised concerns among fans regarding her weight loss.
