Olympian2004 511 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites

Olympian2004 511 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites

Olympian2004 511 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 I never was too fond of Asia (nothing racist, I just wasn't really interested in going on vacation there) - but now I want to LIVE in Tokyo! If it's anything like that presentation in real life, it must be the coolest city in the world! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
