Olympian2004 511 Report post Posted August 22, 2016 Very impressive! Kimigayo is a different, but always very dignified and majestic anthem - if I remember correctly, the oldest or one of the oldest national anthems in the world. And that Japanese flag projection combined with that was super nice, too! And now vibrant and young Tokyo! Oh, and Hello Kitty... erm, nice! No, I like the fun part. They seem to remember their own 2020 bid presentation with that enthusiastic nice lady. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olympian2004 511 Report post Posted August 22, 2016 Haha, and there is the Prime Minister acting as Super Mario! How cool is that? Or how cringeworthy? However, I like that they are poking fun at themselves! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olympian2004 511 Report post Posted August 22, 2016 I'm sitting in front of my TV with dropped jaw. This is REALLY cool and new! If they keep up with this for their opening ceremony in 2020, then we're in for a super cool and impressive opening! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
