Won “Best of the Best” of the Red Dot Design Award!
Japan has more than 6000 high schools, about 4000 of which have a baseball team. Every summer, there's a championship to decide the best team in Japan. Many people get excited, and fortunes are moved. On the other hand, people called a man with good sense raise voices against the trend, like "Don't prey on the innocent effort of high school kids." To be honest, I doubt if high school kids are such innocent, though. -

What If You Were the Last Person on Earth?

In fact, I did many times and was shocked every time to find the simple fact that I can't live long by myself.

The exhibition is "The Science behind PIXAR" that is about the movie production of PIXAR.

Japanese Flower Etiquette: How to Choose Flowers
I rarely buy flowers. It's only on Mother's Day, though I forget even that sometimes. In addition, there's a mental wall in us, I guess. In fact, I've never seen anyone who is waiting for his/her date with a flower bouquet, and so I believe it only happens in the movies. -
