Award comment by the author: The silver medal of women’s basketball is a battle that inherits the foundation of the past and thoroughly implements the tactic of “small ball” that no country has done. It wasn’t a miracle that suddenly became stronger, but it was the silver medal that I grabbed because I powered up what I had accumulated so far in line with the times. And above all, the attitude of the team fighting as one toward the goal caught the hearts of the viewers. I wrote this because I wanted to convey the charm of such women’s basketball. I think Japanese women’s basketball will be more sunshine in the future, but I hope you will read it again when you look back on the Tokyo Olympics. Thank you for choosing. (Yoshiko Konaga)

Award comment by the author: While many victims of romance scams are received, some people give up because the damage report is not accepted and it is difficult to refund. I wrote that I would like to convey to the victims who are about to break their hearts that the woman’s strong desire to “never give up” made the impossible possible. After receiving positive words such as “I thought that the money would not be returned, but I got hope” and “I got the courage”, there is a way to create a second and third refunder who inherited her thoughts. I think I’ve seen it. (Fumiaki Tada)

We received various opinions regarding the article not only from the management but also from employees such as part-time workers.

Award comment by the author: Tokyo 2020, which was affected by the corona storm and changed a lot until just before the event. I think that “TOKYO 2020”, which was held after a year’s postponement, was a stray Olympics. The reason for the confusion is, after all, the effects of coronavirus infection. The event was held in a situation where the scenery of everyday life changed completely due to the division in the corona, and the voices of opposition to the Olympic Games became louder day by day. The Olympic and Paralympic Games held under such circumstances became a medal rush for the Japanese national team. Players who impressed the people by showing superhuman performances every day. Many people would have been impressed by the interviews with the athletes, saying, “Thank you for holding the event,” after the match. Inoue’s words and deeds were especially athlete-first and close to the players. I think his human power affected not only the players but also many Japanese people who were divided by Corona.

Award comment by the author: The Taliban fell Kabul well ahead of the US military withdrawal deadline, causing great turmoil in the capital. Whether in the Middle East or Afghanistan, wars and revolutions are always over. At the end of the day, it’s a fuss and the news is as if it’s suddenly a big deal, but the question is, why did you get there? Twenty years after the Taliban was chased by the US war after the 9/11 incident, the scheme can be seen from a drawn perspective so that it can be seen that the West created a “corrupted failed state” in Afghanistan. I made a comment like this. I am glad that you evaluated it. (Yasunori Kawakami)
