Kochikame

Japan's famous police manga "Kochira Katsushika-ku Kamearikoen-mae Hashutsujo” or Kichikame will be ended on Sept. 17 after a four-decade run. 

When I was young, I used to read Shonen Jump. I read the manga, but I don't really like it. I didn't think it lasted so much long time. 

I remember the author, Osamu Akimoto, used to be named Tatuhiko Yamadime. It named after a popular manga artist Tatuhiko Yamagami who wrote a slap stick policeman manga, Gakideka. I really liked Gakideka, in fact.

Kasai Got the Silver

41-year-old jumper Kasai finally got an individual silver medal in Sochi Olympics. It was his seventh Olympic Games. 

I really admire his effort t fighting against younger jampers at the highest level. He got several injuries but he over came the difficulties many times. 

I hope Japanese Nordic jumpers win another medal in the team competition in Sochi.
