Fanart, Youtube video clips of the Akishino family


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
An anime about their love story? Seriously does the impireal family like the idea or hate it because there is also the kunaicho who probably have something to say.

Can someone tell me what the princes are saying and what are they laughing about at minute 1:45?
Thank you :)

YouTube - ‪Akishino's Family Sixteen Years Special Video Part 3 of 3‬‏


All these years, later, here's a translation!

Akishino is saying that he gets the impression that the children want to take care of a younger sibling, whether a little brother or sister. He adds, "I hope so..." He turns to Kiko and asks her, "What do you think?" Laughter. She says, "When they encounter someone younger than themselves, they would be mindful of the child being younger than them, they would hold the younger child's hand and take care when walking..." The prince says, "We'll have a discussion about the future."

And here, at 4.20min?
would love to learn Japanese... :p

The video starts off with how the former IF reporter saying that Akishino makes sure the children know how to respond (greetings like "Good Morning", waving, bowing their head). Hisahito says, "Good Morning" to not only his parents and his sisters but also to the fishes, flowers and rooster. Kiko appreciates the affection that the public has shown towards the children.

Princess Mako attends a press conference on October 16, 2011 before her 20th birthday (October 23)
Princess Kako attends a press conference on December 15, 2014 before her 20th birthday (December 29)
I think these are clips because it seems odd their press conferences would be so short (3-5 minutes) whereas Mikasa Princess Akiko and Princess Yoko's 20th birthday press conferences were 20-30 minutes.

Bringing Princess Kako home from the hospital on January 6, 1995. Video includes Emperor Akihito, Empress Michiko, and Princess Sayako visiting on the evening of her birth, December 29. Princess Mako is happily running around. Princess Kako was named on January 4.

"Ka" character means beautiful, excellent, and splendid. Not only is her body healthy, but she is also honest, compassionate, both physically and mentally.
