That's a beautiful video. The Princess seems to be a lively and happy spirit who can't prevent herself from smiling and even laughing in that somber atmosphere of the interview. I always get the impression that her elder sister is way more serious or even subdued, as if the Imperial atmosphere is weighing her down.

I hope that both sisters will attend the New Year’s Reception next Thursday.
 
The Japanese imperial household does not lend itself to relaxation naturalness or merriment. Maybe the new generation can change that.

The Japanese culture, I believe, values dignity, formality, sincerity and calm.

Of the private conduct of the Imperial household I know nothing - but the Princess seems like a merry, jolly, young lady :flowers:

Princess Mako was pictured at Tokyo's Haneda airport today, January 8, 2015, before her departure for Britain where she is studying at the University of Leicester's graduate school for a master's degree in museum studies. She had been back in Tokyo for a winter break.

Princess Kako visited a female calligraphers' exhibition at Takashimaya Nihombashi store in Tokyo today, January 28 - so nice to see her more often these days (see her parents' current events thread as well):

Thanks for the update!:flowers::flowers::flowers:
Princess Kako looked lovely. It was nice to see kindergarten pupils visiting the Shrine.
 
Japanese Princess Kako, a granddaughter of Emperor Akihito, smiles for the media upon her arrival at International Christian University to attend an entrance ceremony, Thursday, April 2, 2015, in the western Tokyo suburb of Mitaka, Japan. Princess Kako, a daughter of Prince Akishino and Princess Kiko, quit Gakushuin University in August 2014 to join ICU.

I never knew that they had a family, that's nice, now they have one, oh two, in college, that's fantastic. I was expecting more fashion, instead college, I am happy for them. lol.

it's a private video. It doesn't play. Which is fine, I have no need to know to see it. Liberal Arts really opens a college resume up for all kinds of possibilities. That's nice.

Japanese princess completes degree course at Leicester University - BelfastTelegraph.co.uk
The granddaughter of Japanese Emperor Akihito said she had a "great experience" as she completes a Masters degree in Leicester.
Princess Mako of Akishino, who is seen by the Japanese media as having the same status as Kate Middleton, studied for a Masters Degree in Museum Studies at the university.
She has now completed her dissertation on a series of glass models called Blaschka and will return to Japan.
