00:00I'm Chiko-chan, nice to meet you.
00:11I'm Chiko. I'm 5 years old. Nice to meet you.
00:16Nice to meet you.
00:18First of all, this is my first appearance.
00:20I don't know if it's muscle pain or growth pain because I like muscle training.
00:25I'm Kokoro.
00:27Nice to meet you.
00:30I'm the younger brother of Okamura.
00:35I was surprised to see you after a long time.
00:41And the other is the original member.
00:45The most delicious thing in Okinawa the other day was a normal baked sweet potato that can be eaten in Tokyo.
00:51I'm Atsuko.
00:53The baked sweet potato in Okinawa is completely different.
00:58The sweet potato is famous in Kadena Town.
01:01I'm 5 years old, but I have a lot of knowledge.
01:04I'm studying.
01:07Hey, Okamura.
01:08Yes.
01:09Who is your favorite cartoonist among them?
01:13I'll ask Terada-kun.
01:15Okay.
01:16Look at this.
01:17Have you ever seen a nose lantern in a cartoon?
01:23Yes, I have.
01:24I have an image of a nose lantern breaking.
01:26Have you ever seen a person sleeping with a nose lantern?
01:30No, I haven't.
01:31But why is it a nose lantern?
01:40What?
01:43I've never thought about it.
01:45I'm surprised.
01:47I don't know.
01:50Have you ever thought about why you sleep with a nose lantern in a cartoon?
01:59My nose just came out a little.
02:03It's easy to understand.
02:05There's nothing to express whether you're sleeping or not.
02:09That's why it's a nose lantern.
02:11Don't come closer.
02:14Did you have a nose lantern when you were a kid?
02:18There was a kid who had a nose lantern in our time.
02:21Yes, there was.
02:22Kids these days don't have a nose lantern.
02:25I've never seen a nose lantern in my life.
02:28But according to Chiko's theory...
02:32Theory?
02:33Yes.
02:34There are many theories that someone drew a nose lantern.
02:39Who is it?
02:42Is it Osamu Tezuka?
02:43No.
02:44No?
02:46Okamura.
02:47I think it was a cartoonist.
02:49There was a scene where he was chased and drooled.
02:54Or something like a drop of water fell on him.
02:56Yes.
02:57It was just right.
02:59There was water in the scene where he was sleeping in the cartoon.
03:02It seems real.
03:03Yes, it seems real.
03:05It seems real, but I'll say it quickly to save time.
03:09It's not.
03:10It's not.
03:12A nose lantern when you were a kid?
03:16A nose lantern when you were a kid?
03:20Yes.
03:21I ask all Japanese people.
03:24Why is it a nose lantern when you were a kid?
03:27It's easy to understand.
03:29I asked people who wanted to be cartoonists to draw a person sleeping.
03:34Like this.
03:36Wow, it's cute.
03:37You're good.
03:38I knew it.
03:39Do you often draw a nose lantern when you draw a person sleeping?
03:43Yes, I do.
03:46What?
03:47Why?
03:48I drew a Chinese character on everyone's face.
03:52Did you draw a Chinese character?
03:53Speaking of sleeping, this person also drew a nose lantern.
03:57Wow, I'm an adult.
03:58I think it's one of the ways to distinguish it from the dead body.
04:03I see.
04:04Why is it a nose lantern when you are sleeping?
04:08It's a nose lantern.
04:10Let's show this person's nose lantern to her on her wedding day.
04:19It's cute.
04:20It's beautiful.
04:21It's a wedding.
04:22It's funny.
04:23Oh, really?
04:25I didn't know.
04:26I didn't know it was a Chinese character.
04:29But Chiko knows.
04:32Speaking of sleeping, this person also drew a nose lantern.
04:36Because she often drew a nose lantern when she was sleeping.
04:45In fact.
04:47It's just an answer, isn't it?
04:50It's just an answer.
04:52Because she often drew a nose lantern when she was sleeping.
05:01As expected, Chiko.
05:03You are 5 years old, but you know about a nose lantern.
05:07I sometimes draw a nose lantern.
05:08Masanori Ishii, who is familiar with the function of the nose, will tell us in detail.
05:13First of all, do you know what a nose lantern is made of?
05:17Is it nose water?
05:18That's right.
05:19To make it a little thinner, it's a muddy nose water.
05:23In the first place, nose water is a saline solution that is secreted by the hot air and foreign substances in the nose.
05:33This saline solution, or nose water, has the function of lowering the temperature of the inhaled hot air and expelling foreign substances such as pollen into the body.
05:45However, the nose water that comes out of eating hot food or pollen is smooth, isn't it?
05:51That's right.
05:53Then, when does the muddy nose water come out?
05:57It's when the mucous membrane in the back of the nose is infected with bacteria and causes inflammation.
06:06At this time, a substance called mucin is secreted by the stimulation of inflammation, but this mucin is sticky, so the nose water becomes muddy.
06:18This muddy nose water is the blue nose that we hear.
06:23And when the inflammation of the abdominal cavity continues to be chronic,
06:27the mucin swells up like a mushroom and narrows the path connecting to the throat.
06:33This is the so-called nasal congestion.
06:36Then it becomes difficult to breathe through the nose and mouth, right?
06:41That's right.
06:42If you are active during the day, you can consciously open your mouth and breathe, but what about when you are sleeping?
06:50Your mouth closes a little, doesn't it?
06:52That's right.
06:53In that case, all the air that is exhaled cannot come out of the mouth and goes into the nose.
07:00This little breath out of the nose gradually pushes out the muddy nose water, swelling it near the exit of the nose and becoming nasal congestion.
07:10I see.
07:11But, doctor, there is almost no blue nose.
07:16That's right. That's the secret.
07:19In the old days, there was a saying that people often had a nose congestion.
07:24In fact, in the old days, it was easy for people to have a blue nose.
07:29That's true.
07:31Around 1947, when the manga that was stagnant during the war began to revive.
07:37At that time, the general meal of the day was two bowls of wheat rice,
07:42side dishes, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and seafood, and the total calories were about 1,000 kilocalories.
07:49It was not at all comparable to the calories taken in a modern day.
07:55The consumption of high-nutritive meat was overwhelmingly less than in the West, even around 1965, 20 years after the war.
08:06Now, people can eat high-nutritive food, so the immune system is high, and medicine can be obtained immediately,
08:14so the symptoms do not worsen until a terrible, muddy blue nose appears.
08:20However, in the old days, there was no medicine, and it was a low-nutritive meal,
08:26so the immune system was low, and people often had a nose congestion.
08:31So, I think that when people were sleeping in the manga, they started to have a nose congestion.
08:37I see.
08:39In the manga that was published at that time, a beautiful nose congestion was depicted.
08:44There is a reason why there are fewer cases of such nose congestion now.
08:51It's because school lunches have spread.
08:54School lunches began in the elementary school in Yamagata Prefecture in 1889,
09:00but even in 1959, when the spread rate began to be calculated,
09:05it was 45% in elementary school and only 13% in junior high school.
09:12Therefore, about 10 years after the manga began to revive after the war,
09:17there were many Japanese who lacked nutrition, and there was a possibility that they had a nose congestion when they were sleeping.
09:24However, in 1969, the spread rate of school lunches increased by 96% in elementary school and 84.5% in junior high school.
09:36In addition, there was a progress in the improvement of the social eating environment and medical care,
09:41and the number of nose congestion decreased dramatically.
09:45I think that Westerners who have been eating high-nutrition meat for a long time
09:51may not be able to understand nose congestion.
09:55As the teacher said, can foreigners not understand nose congestion?
10:01We asked foreigners who came to Japan and became manga artists.
10:06First of all, Osa-san, a Swedish manga artist who made his manga debut in his own experience in Japan.
10:13I've never seen anything other than Japanese manga.
10:17But the shape is a bit like the shape of a blowout.
10:22So I thought, oh, this is a blowout, but it doesn't have letters in it.
10:27It's like a mistake in printing.
10:30Mokutan, who became a manga artist in Japan for the first time as a Brazilian because he longed for Japanese manga.
10:37I think nose congestion is only in Japanese manga.
10:41When I first saw it, I knew it wasn't a nose congestion, but I thought it was a strange expression.
10:48There are other expressions that can't be understood in Japanese manga other than nose congestion.
10:54For example.
10:56It's like this.
10:58It's a clean deformation.
11:00Usually, things that are drawn in a cool and realistic way suddenly become cute.
11:07It's like a baby.
11:09Overseas, the style is basically the same from start to finish.
11:14When it starts in reality, it's real until the end.
11:17There is basically no clean deformation of the character.
11:20It's a method of expression that we Japanese don't care about until we're told.
11:27I asked Prof. Kenichi Tanaka, a professor at Kyoto Seika University, who is familiar with the history of manga.
11:34The deformation of the character was adopted by Asuna Hinoshi, the author of the work,
11:40which is called White Clouds Covering the Blue Sky, which was serialized in 1976.
11:47It's a manga with a serious scene and a broken scene.
11:50As a result, the expression of the character's deformation began.
11:55In 1981, the deformation of the character generally spread in the youth manga,
12:01Karuizawa Syndrome, by Prof. Yoshihisa Tagami.
12:09Next, Japanese manga expressions that foreigners can't understand.
12:15Ta-da!
12:17When I see a sexy scene, I get a nosebleed.
12:22I'm not injured, but why do I have a nosebleed?
12:27Certainly, even in a slightly exciting situation, there are no people who actually have a nosebleed.
12:33Professor, what is this?
12:35This manga was written by Yasuji Tanioka, a gag manga artist in the 1970s.
12:43Wow, that's a lot.
12:45That's right.
12:47Tanioka-sensei's manga was more extreme than any other gag manga.
12:54It was an expression that made my heart pound and blood flow through my body,
12:58and I couldn't help but blow it out of my nose.
13:01Later, it was passed on to various manga artists,
13:05and it became a general expression of manga.
13:10Osa-san reports on this.
13:13I see.
13:14In that wonderful information, Chiko-chan also has a nosebleed.
13:18Yes, I do.
13:21Speaking of sleeping, the reason for the nosebleed is
13:25that in the past, when I was sleeping, I often had a nosebleed.
13:31Is there a scene in the manga that you remember?
13:35In the final episode of High School Kimengumi,
13:38I was surprised to find out that it was all a dream until now.
13:44It was a dream.
13:46Even though there was nothing in the final episode of Touch,
13:49it was good to see only the evidence of winning in the end.
13:53It was a dream to talk about Touch at the age of 5.
13:58There are still small children who have a nosebleed,
14:02but in the case of small children,
14:05the adenoid in the back of the nose is large,
14:08and it is easy to swell even with mild symptoms,
14:11so it is easy to get a nosebleed.
14:15Adenoids start to get smaller around the age of 10,
14:18and when they become adults, they become quite small,
14:21so it is difficult to get a nosebleed.
14:24When Chiko asked Atsuko-chan for water,
14:27she said,
14:29Yes, she often gets a nosebleed.
14:31It was really close, though.
14:33Oh, time, please go back.
14:37Can the adults answer properly?
14:41If you live without thinking about anything,
14:44you will be scolded by Chiko-chan.
14:46Don't just stand there!
14:59Hey, Okamura,
15:01who is the most water-repellent adult among us?
15:06Takahashi-san is water-repellent.
15:08Old people are told to drink water even if their throats are not dry,
15:12so they are very water-repellent.
15:14Well, Atsuko-chan,
15:16when you go to a supermarket or a convenience store,
15:18they sell water, right?
15:19Yes, they do.
15:20If you are abroad,
15:22in Japan, most households can drink delicious tap water,
15:26so everyone buys water, right?
15:28Yes, recently.
15:29Why?
15:32Why did you start buying water?
15:47Despite being able to drink tap water,
15:50many people buy water and drink it.
15:53Actually, there was a reason why I started buying water,
15:56but have you ever thought about it?
15:59It's because there's something bad in tap water,
16:05so I started buying it because I wanted to drink something that wasn't there.
16:09Wow, you bought it again!
16:12That's fast!
16:14It came right away.
16:15Well, Okamura-kun is already aware that water is something to buy.
16:18That's right. I've been buying it since I was born.
16:22After the war, water got dirty,
16:25so I developed something necessary to purify it,
16:31and I thought I could make money if I got money from it.
16:35Business.
16:36That's a smart voice.
16:38That's what I thought.
16:40This is a disaster, isn't it?
16:42No.
16:43Yes.
16:44That's fast!
16:45Chiko-chan, you're fast.
16:47Did you make a promise after this?
16:49Yes, I did.
16:51Now, I'm going to ask all the Japanese people.
16:54Why did you start buying water?
16:58I asked people who were thirsty for mineral water.
17:03Why did you start buying mineral water?
17:09It's because a famous person told me that I should buy it.
17:14Okamura-san?
17:16No way.
17:18Why did you start buying water?
17:21You were asked to buy a drink at a restaurant you went on a date with.
17:24It's water because it's a car.
17:26You were asked to buy a drink with or without gas.
17:30I'd like a normal water.
17:32I think it's good to be able to say that.
17:35That's good.
17:36Normal water.
17:39What?
17:40It's getting better.
17:42But Chiko-chan knows.
17:45The reason I started buying water
17:48was because whiskey was popular.
17:53What?
17:54Whiskey was popular?
17:58It's because whiskey was popular.
18:03As expected of you, Chiko-chan.
18:04Yes.
18:05You're five years old, but you know that much.
18:07You have a lot of knowledge.
18:10A lot.
18:11Mr. Senmuri Watanabe of the Japan Mineral Water Association will tell us in detail.
18:18When it comes to buying water, I think it's mineral water.
18:21According to a survey by a beverage manufacturer,
18:24about 70% of people answered that it is normal to buy mineral water.
18:30It is now commonplace to buy water.
18:33Overseas, it seems that people bought water and drank it around the 17th century
18:36because of the delay in water supply.
18:39However, in Japan, there are two points where mineral water has spread.
18:44The first was in the 1970s, when many people started drinking it.
18:49It was especially used in the food industry.
18:53The reason for that was this whiskey.
18:59It is said that whiskey came to Japan at the end of the Edo period.
19:04However, it didn't sell much until about 1970, about 100 years later.
19:10The reason why it didn't sell was because
19:12at that time, there were few pubs and bars like those in Western Japan,
19:16and there were few places where you could buy whiskey.
19:19In addition, it didn't go well with Japanese food,
19:22so it wasn't used much in restaurants.
19:26Also, when it comes to drinking,
19:28Japanese beer and soba were definitely popular.
19:31Compared to those, whiskey, which has a high alcohol content,
19:35was a little unsuitable for Japanese people,
19:38who have a weak tolerance for alcohol.
19:41Therefore, the consumption of whiskey did not increase,
19:44and it seems that the whiskey makers had a lot of trouble.
19:48So, the whiskey makers solved these problems
19:52and came up with a strategy to increase sales.
19:55What is the strategy to increase sales by making whiskey popular?
20:00Let's ask someone who is familiar with whiskey to explain it.
20:15Mr. Takashi Hashimuchi, who is familiar with the history of whiskey, will explain it from here.
20:21What did the whiskey maker think to increase sales?
20:27Mizuwari.
20:29In foreign countries, it is common to drink straight whiskey as it is.
20:33However, straight whiskey was not suitable for Japanese people,
20:37who have a weak tolerance for alcohol.
20:40So, the whiskey maker came up with the idea of Mizuwari.
20:44At that time, most Japanese restaurants did not have whiskey,
20:48so they launched a campaign called Mizuwari goes well with Japanese food.
20:52At a sushi restaurant after a closed shop,
20:55the manager would advertise that he was drinking whiskey,
20:58so that Japanese restaurants could also serve whiskey.
21:02At that time, Mizuwari, which was not a major brand, was sold.
21:06Even Japanese people who have a weak tolerance for alcohol
21:10can enjoy drinking Mizuwari for a long time,
21:13and it is difficult to get drunk.
21:16Highball brewed with soda is very popular, isn't it?
21:20In addition, the taste is mild,
21:23so you can drink it deliciously even if you drink it with a gentle taste.
21:27However, there was one problem with Mizuwari, which was full of benefits.
21:32It is the unique smokiness of tap water at that time.
21:36It is light alcohol.
21:38At that time, tap water had a very strong light alcohol,
21:42so when I made Mizuwari with whiskey, it was not delicious,
21:45and it turned out to be the opposite.
21:48So, in order to drink Mizuwari more deliciously,
21:51I sold mineral water for business developed for Mizuwari together.
21:57Mizuwari of whiskey, which became overwhelmingly delicious in this strategy,
22:02was also a big hit at Japanese restaurants.
22:05Furthermore, snack culture rose in the 1970s,
22:10and the sales of whiskey doubled more than ten times in a few years.
22:15As a result, the consumption of mineral water increased,
22:18and the deliciousness of mineral water spread to many people.
22:23The first point where mineral water spread was whiskey.
22:27The second point is...
22:29In 1983, the first home-made mineral water was sold in Japan.
22:36Here is the water.
22:39Actually, this is it.
22:41It was sold by a curry company.
22:44In 1983, when there was no habit of buying water at home,
22:48the water was a must when eating curry,
22:52so the maker who sold curry roux challenged to sell new delicious water.
22:58By putting it next to the curry shop, it became easier to get it,
23:02and it seems that it gradually increased sales.
23:06Mizuwari of whiskey and water sold by curry maker.
23:10Due to these two points,
23:12mineral water, which had only been drunk at restaurants until then,
23:16spread to households.
23:19And furthermore, the reason why the consumption of mineral water increased was...
23:24The appearance of small pet bottles.
23:27The first home-made mineral water was sold in large paper bags and large bottles,
23:33but in 1996, a 500ml small pet bottle appeared,
23:39and it became easier to get mineral water,
23:42so consumption increased at once.
23:46In this way, the annual consumption of mineral water per person
23:50increased by more than 8 times in 1996 to 2027,
23:57and it became normal to buy water.
24:01By the way, is Mizuwari your favorite way to drink whiskey?
24:06I used to like rock,
24:09but after I got older, it's hard, so I only drink Mizuwari.
24:14But actually, my favorite is Japanese white wine.
24:19So, the reason why he started buying water
24:22was because Mizuwari of whiskey was popular.
24:26What do you think is the food that goes well with water?
24:30Tenshinhan!
24:33Tenshinhan!
24:34I think most of them go well with water.
24:37That's right.
24:38The question is interesting.
24:41Kokoro, you don't know how tall you are,
24:46so you often hit your head and break something.
24:49Oh, you know it well.
24:53Did you grow a lot in junior high school and high school?
24:56Yes, I grew about 43 cm.
24:59No, Okamura!
25:00When we worked together, I was much taller than you.
25:04Really?
25:06I was surprised when I saw you today.
25:08I thought you were much taller than me.
25:10No, I'm not.
25:12By the way, Kokoro, I heard you have a question for Chico.
25:15I love cooking and I often cook,
25:20but sometimes I cook something that I didn't want to cook at first.
25:24For example, if I cook rice,
25:27I want to make risotto.
25:29I see.
25:31Or if I cook tomato soup, I want to make caprese.
25:34Oh, that's cool.
25:36You can say everything in Italian.
25:38That's right.
25:39That's cool.
25:40When did you start cooking?
25:42I started cooking when I was in the first year of junior high school.
25:46I went to a cooking class.
25:48Does that mean you get rid of your worries?
25:51That's right. I do things that are different from my purpose.
25:54What if you write something like this?
25:57No, Okamura.
25:58It's not just about cooking.
26:00That's what happens when you go out, right?
26:02That's right.
26:03I was going to go to the supermarket,
26:06but when I found a small street,
26:08I thought I'd go in there.
26:10Oh, I see.
26:11That's right.
26:12Then you go home without going to the supermarket.
26:15That's right.
26:16I have a purpose, but I always end up not being able to do it.
26:20But I have curiosity like Kokoro,
26:24so I want to be a woman who has curiosity, imagination, and development.
26:33I see.
26:39My nose is running.
26:43Hey, Okamura.
26:44Yes?
26:45Who is the most flexible and sensitive adult among us?
26:50I'm doing this kind of work, so I think I have an antenna.
26:54Hey, Okamura.
26:55Yes?
26:56Have you ever heard that this year's fashionable color is yellow?
26:59Yes, I have.
27:01What is that fashionable color?
27:05How do you decide what a fashionable color is?
27:10What?
27:15It's difficult.
27:17I'm sure many of you have seen fashionable colors introduced in magazines this year.
27:23Have you ever thought about how to decide what a fashionable color is?
27:30Well, it's a fashionable color that was decided by a PR campaign set up by the fashion industry.
27:42It's a little different.
27:43It's a little different.
27:44Don't come to me.
27:49I raised it a little in two steps, but it's not bad.
27:53Now, I will ask all Japanese people.
27:56What is a fashionable color?
27:59I asked people who seem to be sensitive to fashion.
28:04I think it's a color that spreads when Hollywood actors wear it.
28:10Like Emma Watson and Jackie Chan.
28:13Oh, Jackie Chan.
28:14Jackie Chan.
28:15It's cool.
28:17I think it's a color that fashionable people in foreign countries have decided.
28:22Let's go to the bottom of you, who has the most cute items before your first date, not knowing what a fashionable color is.
28:34Fashion is an adventure.
28:36Morita is kind.
28:38I knew it for the first time.
28:40I didn't know.
28:42However, Chiko knows.
28:46What is a fashionable color?
28:48It's a color that the world has decided not to flutter.
28:55It's a color that the world has decided not to flutter.
29:00It's a color that the world has decided not to flutter.
29:05As expected, Chiko.
29:06Even though you are 5 years old, you know what a fashionable color is.
29:10Are you going to soap the fashion world with your pink clothes?
29:14Soap! Soap!
29:15The person who will tell us in detail is Tamaki Oniso of the Japanese Fashion Association, who teaches special courses at the Faculty of Culture and Fashion.
29:24Do you know what a fashionable color is for this spring and summer?
29:28I don't know.
29:30This is a fashionable color for this spring and summer.
29:34There are so many kinds.
29:36Here are all 56 kinds of fashionable colors for the spring and summer of 2025.
29:42Isn't that too much?
29:43Huh? It's only March, but you already know what a fashionable color is?
29:49I'll explain that later.
29:51There are so many kinds of fashionable colors.
29:55Anything is fine.
29:56That's right.
29:57Each country has a different culture and nationality.
30:00Since the fashionable colors are for various fields such as interior design and home appliances, there are many colors.
30:07Is there something like a light thread?
30:09Yes.
30:10The texture of the material is also very important, so the fashionable colors of that year are expressed in various materials.
30:17So how is this fashionable color decided?
30:22It is decided at an international fashion committee where fashion and color experts from all over the world gather.
30:29A meeting?
30:30Yes.
30:31In fact, I also participate as a representative of Japan.
30:35The International Fashion Committee is a private organization established in 1963.
30:41It is now composed of representatives from 17 countries in the world, including Japan, the United States, and France.
30:49This meeting is held twice a year.
30:52Representatives from each country bring their own colors and choose colors from them.
30:58This year, I chose these 56 colors from about 450 colors.
31:04By the way, is the meeting in a piri-piri mood?
31:07It's a Nagoya mood.
31:09Yes, it's going on.
31:11Here is the criteria for deciding the fashionable color.
31:16We analyze the psychology of society and people and choose colors that match the times.
31:23Then, here is the shocking fact from Oniso.
31:27In fact, the fashionable color was decided two years before it was announced.
31:31So it was already decided two years ago?
31:34Yes.
31:35The fashionable color of 2025 was chosen in 2023.
31:41Surprisingly, the fashionable color was not the color that was actually popular, but the color that was decided by predicting the social situation two years later.
31:50This is the meeting to decide the fashionable color in spring and summer of 2026.
31:56Certainly, it was held in May two years ago.
32:00In 2023, the world was constantly in turmoil and chaos.
32:07I thought that the world's difficulties would continue in 2025,
32:12so I chose these 56 colors with the theme of creating a good future without losing to difficulties.
32:18For example, this group called Cool Heat is a color with a passionate desire to overcome difficulties.
32:26This group called Solarized imagines a bright future like bathing in the light of the sun.
32:33Each theme has a message for that era.
32:38But why did they decide on the fashionable color two years ago?
32:43That's because it takes time to prepare, such as securing the dye of the color.
32:48The fashionable color has an impact not only on clothes, but also on furniture, electrical appliances, cars, and other fields.
32:57Since the fashionable color is global, it takes a lot of materials to produce a large amount of the same color.
33:06In addition, it takes time to think about the design that matches the color.
33:11If you don't prepare anything and just say,
33:14this is the fashionable color of this season, you will be in a big mess.
33:17As you can see, the flow after the fashionable color was decided.
33:21In other words, the fashionable color was decided two years ago so that various people around the world would not be in a mess.
33:36Why did they decide on the fashionable color in the first place?
33:41It is largely related to synthetic dye discovered in the mid-19th century.
33:46Synthetic dye is an artificial dye made by chemical synthesis.
33:52In 1856, a British scientist, Dr. William Perkin,
33:57accidentally discovered a red-purple substance at the bottom of a beaker during an experiment with a treatment drug for malaria.
34:05This red-purple substance is the first synthetic dye discovered in the world.
34:11Until then, the dye was made from natural materials such as plants,
34:17so there were only limited types of colors.
34:20However, as synthetic dye was discovered, the number of colors dramatically increased.
34:26However, as a result, many people became confused about what kind of clothes to make to sell,
34:31and what kind of clothes to wear in the city.
34:37For example, isn't it easier to make a choice when a store clerk tells you,
34:42for example, that a certain color is popular?
34:45Yes, it is easier to make a choice.
34:47In the apparel industry, where clothes are made,
34:50we want a trend that sells a lot.
34:52So, we decided to make a fashionable color in line with both opinions.
34:57Thus, the fashionable color was announced as a trend.
35:03But is it really popular?
35:06Of course.
35:08An easy example is the monotone color that became popular in the 1980s.
35:14The monotone color is generally a combination of colors using white, gray, and black.
35:21In 1980, the International Fashion Association announced gray and black as fashionable colors.
35:28In addition,
35:29at a fashion show held in the early 1980s,
35:33Japanese designers announced black as a fashionable color, which was taboo at the time,
35:38and called the style that unifies the whole body with black as a color.
35:42This caused a social phenomenon.
35:45Next, I will introduce the fashionable color of 2023.
35:49This year, many yellow variations were announced.
35:54Among them, light yellow is called butter yellow,
35:57and foreign celebrities also wore this color dress.
36:01In Japan, a yellow car was also sold, which also caused a big topic.
36:06Finally, we have a question from the staff to Mr. Ogiso.
36:11Is the fashionable color of 2026 already decided?
36:15Yes, it's decided.
36:17By the way, do you have anything to tell me?
36:19I can't tell you yet.
36:21Can you give me a hint?
36:23I can't give you a hint.
36:26You can't?
36:27Yes.
36:28Is there a fashionable color in this room next year?
36:32Of course there is.
36:38Did you look at this shelf twice?
36:41Please don't ask me any more.
36:43Cute teacher.
36:44So, the fashionable color was the color that the world had decided not to mess up.
36:50What is Chico's recent my boom?
36:54I went to an antenna shop.
36:58To an antenna shop.
36:59Do you all care about the color of fashion and buy clothes?
37:02I choose clothes that don't mess up.
37:06Today's clothes are a little flashy.
37:10Various colors.
37:11When I look at it, I think it's a tower of the sun.
37:15The color is...
37:17I'm sorry.
37:21Chico.
37:22Yes.
37:23Let me introduce you again today.
37:27I'm sorry.
37:28Today's Kyo-chan is spring-like.
37:31That's right.
37:32This is made by Yumiko, who lives in Nagano Prefecture.
37:38The back of the tail is also separated.
37:42Kyo-chan, what are you wearing today?
37:46Here it is.
37:48It's spring, so I put out my second arm in a no-sleeve.
37:53Okamura.
37:54Yes.
37:55Don't look at me.
37:56I'm calling you.
37:58I'm calling you, so you'll see.
38:00Okamura.
38:01Yes.
38:02Don't look at me.
38:03I'm calling you.
38:04By the way, Okamura.
38:05Yes.
38:06Do you remember the picture of the second button I got a long time ago and what happened to that person?
38:12It was a long time ago.
38:14Yes.
38:15I'll introduce you to all 16 pictures.
38:17Thank you, Okamura.
38:18You're here.
38:20I see.
38:21Graduation season.
38:23First of all, I would like to introduce the second button that Ms. M got.
38:27Here it is.
38:29Oh, junior high school.
38:31Did you get a name tag, too?
38:33Oh.
38:35This is the second button I got from a senior in the third grade when I was in the first grade 27 years ago.
38:42I even got a name tag.
38:44A few days before the graduation ceremony, I made a reservation with my senior that I wanted a second button and a name tag.
38:51Yes.
38:52He was a very kind person, just like the team at the school festival.
38:56Yes.
38:57Unfortunately, there was no progress after that, but I still keep it a secret from my husband.
39:03Oh, that's nice.
39:05I'm taking good care of it.
39:09It's a wonderful memory.
39:11Yes, it's a good memory.
39:13Next, here's the second button I got from Teruchaobaba.
39:18Yes.
39:19Is it a key chain?
39:20It's cool.
39:22I got the second button from him at the graduation ceremony 46 years ago.
39:27I still cherish it.
39:30Of course, it's my current husband.
39:32Oh, yeah.
39:33I've been married for 37 years this year, but I still love him.
39:38That's it.
39:40That's wonderful.
39:42Is the ring a wedding ring?
39:45I guess so.
39:50Next, here's the second button I got from Hiromin.
39:54Yes.
39:55There are two buttons.
39:57Why are there two buttons?
39:59Why?
40:00The second button I got from Kenji, a male high school student on the other side of the track.
40:07My relationship with him ended before the exam, but I got the second button at the graduation ceremony.
40:15At that time, I was friends with Kenji's friend, Koji.
40:20It seems that no one was giving me a button, so I gave it to him.
40:24I want it.
40:25I got it so that I could hold it in my hand.
40:27The button on the right.
40:29Right now, Koji is my husband.
40:33Yes.
40:34The last time I met Kenji was at our wedding.
40:39You wanted Koji, who was Kenji's friend, right?
40:43That's also a confession.
40:45You're married to Koji now.
40:48It's Koji's push.
40:50Koji!
40:51Koji!
40:52You're good!
40:54Next, here's the second button I got from Hiyokomame.
40:58Yes.
40:59It's simple.
41:00It's cherry.
41:01It's beautiful.
41:02I got the second button from someone I thought I would have liked if I had known him when I was in junior high school.
41:09Yes.
41:10In the second half of my thirties, I met a boy in the third year of junior high school at a junior high school where I worked as an employee.
41:18He was the type to be loved by his classmates, but he was a unique person who had his own world, and he often came to tell me what he was interested in.
41:26I thought I might have liked him if I had known him when I was in junior high school.
41:33I asked him if I could get the second button on my graduation day, and he gave it to me.
41:37It's the only second button I've ever gotten from a boy in my life.
41:41Seven years later, we met again.
41:44A former boy student who had become a college student came to teach me.
41:48I see.
41:49I couldn't talk much about the second button, but I think it would be nice if we could meet again somewhere.
41:55I am grateful to the former boy student who gave me a slow mind.
41:59I will continue to cherish the second button.
42:02What?
42:05The fact is more sudden than the novel.
42:08Yes.
42:09I can imagine the situation.
42:12I thought it would have been fun if I had known him when I was in junior high school.
42:17You might have liked him.
42:18You might have liked him.
42:19There was such a passion.
42:21Yes.
42:22Can I cry?
42:24There are many other things, so I would like to introduce them all.
42:29Let's see.
42:30Wow.
42:31All of them.
42:33That's nice.
42:34Yes.
42:35There are a lot.
42:36Of course, there are things that have just come out.
42:38That's right.
42:39Of course, there are things in it.
42:40Do you know the change button?
42:42The one on the back?
42:43That's right.
42:44Wow.
42:45I don't know.
42:47If you put this Tomo-san on the passenger seat, you can remove the black one.
42:52It becomes a gold button.
42:53That's right.
42:54This person took it by himself.
42:57That's right.
42:58Look at this.
42:59All the buttons.
43:00Not the second button, but all the buttons.
43:01All the buttons.
43:02That's amazing.
43:03That's right.
43:04It's like I'm getting a button on my sleeve.
43:06Also, if you put it in a box like this and store it,
43:13Wow.
43:14Everyone took good care of it.
43:17It's important.
43:18I'm glad you asked for it.
43:20It was amazing.
43:21It was great.
43:22It was like watching a short film.
43:25Kyohei-chan, did you get anything?
43:27Did you get anything?
43:29Stop it!
43:31Yes.
43:32Kyohei couldn't say it in high school because he was shy.
43:35You need a little courage to say please.
43:38Don't ask me!
43:39I feel sorry for him.
