 Japanese names are written in kanji characters, but since there is no law in Japan regarding the reading of names , Japanese people are actually free to change the reading of their names without permission from the court. In fact, I changed the reading of my name without changing the kanji of my name. As a result, the Latin alphabetic notation of my name was changed , so internationally I succeeded in changing my real name without permission. As you know, the Japanese language uses multiple character systems. Japanese names are available in Japanese kanji , which are derived from Chinese characters, and in hiragana and katakana , which are phonetic characters . The English alphabet is of course commonly used in Japan, but it cannot be used for Japanese names . There are actually a huge number of kanji characters, but about 3,000 of them are permitted to be used in people's names. In Japan, there is a family register system in which people with Japanese citizenship have thei

 The Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games have been postponed for a year, and even in the spring of 2021, it is still unclear whether or not they will be held. More to the point, everyone in the world, except the president of the IOC, believes that the Tokyo Olympics will not take place. Today's story is about the problems that began to be pointed out when the decision to hold the Olympics was made. This story begins at a time when no one imagined the possibility of the Olympics being cancelled. First of all, let me tell you a shocking fact. Studies have shown that about 90% of cars in Japan ignore pedestrians at crosswalks and pass them. This fact is common knowledge to Japanese people. Strictly speaking, Japanese people don't know that crosswalks are places where pedestrians can freely cross the street in the first place. First of all, let me explain about the daily scene of crosswalks in Japan. When pedestrians approach a crosswalk, they stop there. And check both sides of the road

Sample image of a Japanese driver's license. The fields for all licenses are filled in. Even though there are 15 types of licenses, there are only 14 fields, so two types of towing licenses are listed together in one field. It is quite expensive to get a driver's license in Japan. It also takes about a month to get a driver's license even if you are a good driver, and several months or more if you are not a good driver. In Japan, it is not allowed for a person without a driver's license to practice driving on a real road with a licensed driver in the passenger seat. For this reason, there are many facilities with small courses that resemble roads, called driving schools , all over Japan. At the driving school, students take classes on traffic laws and practice driving on the course in the school's facilities, and those who pass each test get a provisional driver's license to practice driving on real roads. You can graduate from the driving school after practi

 There was once a man who explained the dangers of vaccines on a Japanese TV program in preparation for the government to stop broadcasting the program and refuse to allow him to appear on TV at all. Luckily, the program was aired on TV only once. At that time, there was an important commentary. He warned about the fact that vaccination would only prevent the onset of coronavirus symptoms and that vaccinees would become human weapons that could infect others in an asymptomatic state. Nonetheless, the US has declared that those who have been vaccinated can wear no mask after vaccination. It is true that the early corona pandemic was just a cold. So it was actually true that it didn't matter if everyone wore no masks. However, vaccinated people are different. The mouths of vaccinated people release spike proteins artificially produced by the vaccine, so if vaccinated people go out without masks, there will be a pandemic of mutated strains.

In fact, one of my favorite American drama series is a science fiction drama called Stargate SG-1. There is an episode of this drama that aired about 20 years ago that predicts the current pandemic. In the story, there are bad aliens pretending to be friendly. They provided humanity with various technologies and vaccines. It was a vaccine that would prevent humanity from getting pregnant, and their plan was to destroy humanity over time and take the earth. In a follow-up episode to this one, there was a flu pandemic on a planet similar to Earth's current civilization. They were provided with a vaccine by aliens, and eventually that civilization was destroyed. People's civilization has regressed to an agrarian age, and the survivors have fallen into the position of farming for the evil aliens who once provided them with vaccines, and having all their harvest intercepted by them.
