The new look debuted Monday. All newscasts retained their own branding and intro (alongside adopting the new common graphics). Worth noting too that the NHK News curtain raiser used since last season (used before each show intro and as opener for short news bulletins) has been kept. Additionally, their two main newscasts, NHK News 7 and News Watch 9, got new opening titles and theme music; additionally, News 7 got a new virtual studio.
As part of the new season, news anchors Risa Hayashida and Mayuko Wakuda switched shows: Hayashida is now co-anchor of NW9, joining existing anchors Masayoshi Tanaka and Minoru Aoi, whilst Wakuda now anchors News 7 with Masatomo Takai.
