I'm talking to my mirror image! I would tape it as well on late night PBS. I can still list off every Yokozuna and Ozeki by heart ... not to mention every darn prefecture in the country ;) Good times!
I stopped watching Today's Japan when Karuna left . . . she had a fascinating mix of insecurity and coolness in the early years . . . I started watching the show when Sosuke Uno was Prime Minister!
fun seeing the show's bumpers however; they hadn't changed from when I stopped watching.
Who is that woman hosting this daily news "Today's Japan" on NHK in Tokyo, Japan?

Hilarious, I was about to say the same thing...I used to tape Today's Japan each night in the mid 90s just to see her (and the sumo of course...)!!

I always find it funny how Tokyoite gaijin can be dated by whether they call it Metropolis or still refer to it as Tokyo Classifieds.

Oh that's great footage! That would have been great advertising for the mag back then. I must say I never knew you wore those red jackets- snazzy!
You both looked young and fresh and I could see the stars in your eyes. Great work M & M! Wishing you the best in your future endeavors.

It was a pleasant surprise to hear two Scottish accents in a documentary from Japan.
