Sumo Association adopted cartooned a mascot character

2009-09-01T20:15:00.002-07:00

The sumo wrestling is a national game of Japan.
The sumo wrestling values a still old tradition.
Some examples are enumerated.
1.The woman cannot come in the place (ring) in which it wrestles.
2.CHONMAGE -> The wrestler should be a traditional hairstyle. (When it becomes impossible to maintain the hairstyle, the retirement is compelled. )

Sumo Association that seemed to be old-fashioned adopted cartooned a mascot character. The aim is a recovery among which it is sluggish and the sumo wrestling is popular. I will appeal to young people who are not interested in the sumo wrestling up to now by this mascot.
Many have come out the opinion opposed this.

Hello.How are you?
It is a day when Japanese feel gloomy most within one year today.

Why do you think?
It is because the hypocrisy charity program is broadcast 24 hours more continuously.

A lot of celebrity/entertainer appears for 24 hours and the fund-raising activity is done in nationwide various places. Money of the formidable sum moves.

If this is a true charity program/campaign finance, I do not think such a wonderful thing for another to have.
However, this imitation charity activity has a very unbelievable problem in the foreign country.

Very, the reward is paid to people who relate to this imitation charity program with the tradition. The reward is paid to not only propman's staff but also very rich entertainers.
As for the program inside, the advertisement by the enterprise is usually inserted.

The TV station, parties concerned, and the performer begin to produce a profit according to this charity program.
Of course, the profit is not raised a fund.

Thing to make "Charity activity" excuse, to make physically handicapped person show, and to obtain an advantage
Is such a thing permitted?
Though I do not deny the thing that this thing becomes a chance that people are interested in the charity activity of course.

In addition, it is a day of an important election to decide the future of Japan today.

When a pitiful Japanese goes to the election vote with it cheated by media, and comes home, it is cheated again by the imitation charity program.
The Japanese is really useless.

To change feelings, I introduce wonderful costume play images.
