Yes, they will probably put up a list later but at the same time, part of the excitement of each show is the slow rolling in of information about who will be competing.
As per the news thread, it looks like Bunpei Shiratori will be making his last ride at the next show.

Per Facebook posts Nagano/Takeda/Yamamoto/Yamada are confirmed to be going. Unsure about Akiyama.

Three (out of the nine that auditioned) of Katsumi Yamada's Black Tigers will be competing.
Pretty sure Kuroneko and SEGA were part of the Black Tigers who competed in 29.

Hmm, one of the Black Tigers must have been eliminated later on. Yamada mentioned on his FB page that 4 of the 9 made it through the Osaka Trials. I guess one of the four either had to cancel for some reason or was eliminated.

Japanese actress Rumi Hanai, who will be starring in a Japanese low-grade action movie called Danger Dolls that I just read about on io9 was there (emphasis on was since her twitter account implies she's already done for the day.). twitter.com/hanaisensehi

Why did I say James? I swear I meant to say Drew. No clue what happened there. That guy you weren't sure definitely isn't Nagasaki. Maybe Yuuichi Okada?
