SMAP performed their newly released song "Yes we are" while Nakayama Yuma sang "High Five", which was released a week earlier. During the opening, Kimura Takuya made clear, that the won't be singing "Arigatou" which they sang for Tamori-san during the grand finale for Waratte Iitomo!.

Nakayama Yuma got his own page on Johnny's-net

At first Nakayama Yuma debutet as Nakayama Yuma w/ B.I.Shadow in 2009, but starting 2010 made more relases as a member of NYC together with Yamada Ryosuke and Chinen Yuri from Hey! Say! JUMP. Until now, the realeases of NYC can be found in Johnny's-net the section of Johnny's Jr. or Hey! Say! JUMP or in the special section. Nakayama Yuma's name himself was listed in the section for Johnny's-Jr., even after the Kansai Johnny's Jr. got their own page on Johnny's-net.

It made fans uncertain, whether NYC is  considered as a debuted group or as a special group for a limited time and whether Nakayama Yuma is still consedered as a Johnny's Jr. or not. When Morimoto Ryutaro was suspended from Hey! Say! JUMP, some fans even speculated, whether Nakayama would be replacing him and become a member of Hey! Say! JUMP.

As of April 1st, Nakayama Yuma has his own section in Johnny's-net. His name is listed under Uchi Hiroki's, together with Ikuta Toma and Yamashita Tomohisa, who are also working as solo artists. His profile, biagraphy, discography and activities, such as TV and radio appearances, concerts and stage plays, are listed in this web-page.
