I don't think that's quite it...if I'm getting this correctly, she is proposing that there would be some sort of "Tokyo World's Fair" in 2020, concurrent with the Olympics, that would feature an exhibition hall for traditional Japanese performing arts...? That actually sounds pretty cool.

I'm going to try to maintain a positive attitude here. Just because she's having a rough time of it right now does not mean that she has given up altogether. I am still looking forward to her upcoming tour.

They're talking about plans for Tokyo up to 2040, not just the Olympics.

If I remember correctly from some things I read a month or two ago, I think it's also about what Tokyo will look like in 2040.

They already know that. What a waste of time!

That anime sucked BTW, I used to stay up to see it on the Sci-Fi channel. Original blows it away. Just like Ringo then and now.

To be fair, we don't know how she's saying that. She could be saying that sarcastically or jokingly.

Well, taking into account that I cant even remember a single without a product tie in, it's fair to say she's at least somewhat serious.

Either way, she certainly sounds like she's Over the Party :-p

Ok that's my last joke I swear!

^^^a strange joke to make given that it's not funny and the words mirror what she's actually been doing. The denial stage you're experiencing should pass soon.

She'll just be on an endless dance now with her sponsors as though it was the summer fair. Just give me the Coke song and let me smile.


Well, I'm over this party for now so I'm just going to put on my party dress (with the zipper at the back), head over to the family restaurant to meet Nana and get a cappuccino because I think it's about coffee time!
