On the 9th, manga artist Mitsuru Yaku (65) appeared live on TBS Radio’s “Nights’ Chakichaki Broadcast” (9:00 a.m. on Saturdays). He talked about the words he was surprised did not make it into the 30 candidates for the “2024 U-CAN Basics of Modern Vocabulary Award New and Popular Words,” which was announced on the 5th.
Yaku, who serves on the selection committee for the award, admitted, “I wanted to be included in this award, but I couldn’t get in.”
One example of this was the president of Uniqlo, Tadashi Yanai, who said, “If things continue as they are, the Japanese people will be lost.” He said, “I wonder if those are words that will stay with us in the future. It’s not an ideological word, but Japan’s productivity will decline.” “He said this because he was worried about many things, like population decline and education decline, so I thought this was an important warning. “
He also said that he wanted to introduce the “conmage ozeki” that was created when Onosato was promoted to ozeki in the sumo world, but said, “Maybe only in the Kyushu tournament. I thinking he can tie a big ginkgo in the first contest.” he explained.
As for the Olympics, Turkey’s Yusuf Dikeci, who won the silver medal by participating in the mixed air pistol shooting competition at the Paris Olympics, did not wear any special equipment. existence and became a topic of conversation around the world, was chosen as an “unpaid uncle. ,” and another “I was rejected from the Olympic Games,” he said with regret.
“I don’t know why “Uncle Unpaid” didn’t come in. I suggested it,” he said. “Now, with your cell phone, search for “Tokyo Olympic Stamp Shoot” 1964.”If you search and search for an image, you will find one that does not charge,” he said, revealing amazing fact.
When the Knights really investigated, an image of a stamp appeared showing a man burning in a position similar to Dikechi. “At the previous Olympics, in 1964, there was a guy who didn’t pay anything, so he’s old,” said Yaku.
When Nobuyuki Tsuchiya said in surprise, “That’s the style he used to shoot,” Mr. Yaku replied, “He’s just like that Turkish player.” Nobuyuki Hanawa said, “Well, of course he didn’t get his -in,” he said, feeling satisfied.
