Eien no zero (Eternal Zero)

    One movie that I really liked was called 'Eien no zero (Eternal zero).' It was made in Japan, and Okada Junichi and Miura Haruma were the main stars of the movie. Yamazaki Takashi directed it. The movie won Japanese Academy Award as the Best Movie in 2015.

    In the beginning, Kentaro Saeki (Miura Haruma) were looking for his job, but he could not pass job interviews. Then, his sister, who are working as a free writer, told him about her job related to their true grandfather. In fact, the grandfather who sometimes met them were not their relative originally. Kentaro had interested in her job, so he decided to help his sister and interview their grandfather's colleges. Almost all of them were solders during World War Ⅱ. 

    At middle point, Kentaro and his sister were disappointed because evaluation about their grandfather were not good. However, suddenly, they met a man who had respected Kyuzo Miyabe. After they met the man, they came to change their impression to Kyuzo Miyabe. Finally, they know the truth about his death, and Kentaro got motivating to work.

    The movie was very impressing and interesting, so if you have time to watch movies, I strongly recommend you that you will watch it! Thank you for reading.

History of Otoshidama

イメージ
     Hello, everyone! Did you enjoy the last winter vacation? I do hope that you had a good time during the New Year. Today, I will write about the origin of Otoshidama  (お年玉).    　Why Japanese adults give their money to children on the New Year's Day? It is said that this custom had been related to "Year God(Toshigami-sama,歳神さま in Japanese)," who had been worshiped in each family during the New Years holidays. People worshiped Toshigami-sama because they believed that the God brought abundant grains to people. Also, people thought that they could be health and make a lot of grains during the year if they gave rice cakes, which were made for the God, to their family or servants.      Japanese people thought that the rice cakes were sacred things. Therefore, it is said that people called the rice cakes "rice cakes like gems( 玉( Tama ) のような餅)." Also, some people called "the soul of Year God (歳( Toshi )神様の魂( Tama shii))," so the rice cakes became to be ca

Could humans live in underwater city?

     Hello, everyone! Today, I'll introduce a podcast which I watched. The title is 'Could humans live in underwater city?'     In this podcast, whether we human try to live in the sea and what problems are of living in underwater are explained. First of all, there is a project to live under the sea, and Japanese team is leading it. One of the member of the project team said that it is our purpose to solve environmental problems like lack of natural resources. At seabed, there are a lot of resources, for example, oil and shale gas. He insist that if we can use the resources, we will not have to suffer from shortage of it on the ground.      However, there is mainly one big physiological problems when we live in underwater city. First problem is that we have to worry about the bends, a disease caused by the differences of atmospheric pressure between on the ground and under the sea. Because of the bends, even ex-military person could live in underwater only about 70 days. Di

Melting ice sheet: Is it too late?

     Today, I listened to "Melting ice sheet: Is it too late?" In this pod cast, the man and the woman talked about melting ice sheet of Green land and the Arctic and whether it's too late for human beings to strive to stop global warming.       Michalea King, a glaciologist, explained that usually, the amount of melting ice sheet and the amount of newly frozen ice was in balance, so we do not have to worry about melting ice sheet. In other words, "the amount of ice being drained from the glaciers was equal to what we are gaining on the surface via snow every year."(This is a citation from her words.)       However, recently, the glaciers have been melting faster than ever, and the balance was destroyed. She said that the situation which we are now facing is the tipping point. In fact, 500 gigatons of ice are now melting into the ocean every year, and the amount of newly frozen ice is less than that. Gigatons stands for a billion tons.          Michalea also sai
