I have loved seeing all the YouTube videos.

These are so lovely.

I have saved all of them to my "Favourites" even though I don't speak Japanese. :(

I read about Masako, mainly in English, but I have some very visual picture books about her in Japanese, too.

I am so sorry that I don't speak Japanese.

I love Japan and I hope to visit there, soon.

I follow the Crown Princess Masako and her doings often.

I would love to read about her in English, though.

Thank you so very much for linking us to Videos about Japan's Royal Family. I appreciate this very much.

First time, the publication of Empress Michiko's (then the Crown Princess Michiko) letters to the then Crown Prince Akihito. In the letters the then Crown Princess Michiko wrote things like "Your Highness, what should I do? Please help me". The letters shows the then Crown Princely couple were much in love.

THANK you, Poppy!

I could hear sound, in the form of background music, this time on this video.

I guess any narration would have been in Japanese wouldn't it?

Fumihito's wife, Kiko, is gorgeous, isn't she?
Masako, Naruhito's wife, just sits there stone-like and stoic.
Well, still ... It's nice to see her coming out of her shell, at least.
I prefer her with shorter hair, don't you?

I agree with your statements, Abigail. But yes: seeing Princess Masako in an official celebration is a nice new. I'm relieved to see her TRYING to accomplish her duties. I'm sure that if she keep trying she will be able to do so, and become a great Japan's Empress.

Vanesa.

I love Kiko. She is every inch a princess!!

She smiles from youth till now that Kiko-Chan-Smile is name after her!!

In her high school or university year book, in her section, she says her favourite thing is to SMILE because "it is so natural"!^^

The Imperial Family is extremely lucky to have Michiko and Kiko
