From Astro Boy to Gundam to real-world robots like ASIMO and Pepper, Japan's fascination with robots runs deep. This week, the Krewe is joined by author, cultural commentator, & robot enthusiast Matt Alt to explore how robots became heroes instead of threats in Japanese pop culture and how those sci-fi dreams quietly shaped Japan's modern relationship with technology, AI, and everyday automation. From giant mecha and cyborg icons to robot cafés and beyond, we dig into why Japan seems so comfortable living alongside machines in an episode that's equal parts nostalgia, culture, and future tech.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

Property managers are drowning in admin. What if you could save two hours every day? That's an entire month per year. (As Nikki says, "I'd be in Italy.") In this episode of Thought Leaders, we sit down with Nikki D'Agostino, a director, consultant, and mum of two who just won two major REIWA awards: Strata Manager of the Year and Strata Management Agency of the Year. Nikki runs multiple businesses by "automating the mundane to focus on the meaningful." She reveals her "human-first" AI strategy for eliminating the "soul-destroying" busy work (like arrears calls and paperwork) so her team can focus on the 1,600+ owners who need a human touch. In this episode, you will learn: The Monday Task Audit: How to track every task you do for one day, feed it to ChatGPT, and have AI build a matrix of what you must Automate, Delegate, or Eliminate. Agentic AI: Why Nikki is deploying AI agents to handle arrears calls, payment plans, and paperwork, freeing up her team for high-value human interaction. The Human-First Strategy: How the future isn't about replacing people but about creating better humans who excel at relationships and problem-solving. Nikki's AI Toolkit: The exact tools she uses (like Fixer, Notebook LLM, and HeyGen) to save 6+ hours every single week. Stick around to the very end to hear the exact prompt Nikki uses to build her entire "operating system" in ChatGPT and the one bottleneck she would eliminate for every property manager if she had a magic wand.

In this minisode, we do a brief overview on the pros and cons of both SHIN GODZILLA (2016) and GODZILLA MINUS ONE (2024). TALKING POINTS: *James also recounts what else he saw at the recent Boston Film Festival that GODZILLA MINUS ONE was showing at *For both two new takes during this Reiwa Era, which is the superior Japanese version of the iconic monster? *Is Godzilla really a Digimon/Pokemon given his amount of evolving? *And some other fun takes on two largely agreeable creature features.
In today's episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation Podcast, we have the pleasure to speak with Edwin Radzikowski of the CPWF Poland Chapter. Edwin and Katarzyna Kozak produced a movie called Reiwa to document the capture and murder of dolphins in Taiji, Japan. The movie also goes into great depth on the immense suffering dolphins endure as captives in dolphinariums around the world. It is Edwin's hope that we can end dolphin captivity and close all dolphinariums in 25 years! If you love dolphins, this movie is very important. We all need to use our collective talents to put pressure on dolphinariums around the world to close. If you have friends or family considering spending money at a facility that enslaves dolphins, please share this movie with them, it will make them think twice about spending their money at a place that causes so much animal suffering.You can watch the movie Reiwa by following this link.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NF-_1eJkeUSupport the showhttps://www.paulwatsonfoundation.org/https://shop.paulwatson.com/

メガハウスが発売した「ブタミントン」、１６日、東京都台東区昭和や平成に流行した玩具が注目されている。 Toys and games that were popular decades ago during Japan's Showa and Heisei periods are making a comeback in the current Reiwa era.
After more than a year of watching and reviewing the GODZILLA FRANCHISE, the Franchyze Boiz have finally reached its conclusion with THE REIWA ERA. This era includes the films:Shin GodzillaGodzilla: Planet of the MonstersGodzilla: The Planet EaterGodzilla: City on the Edge of BattleGodzilla Minus OneShawn, Brad, and Aaron also share their top five Godzilla film rankings, their favorite battles, and their favorite kaiju. HOSTSShawn EastridgeBrad GullicksonAaron Prescott
In this episode, we discuss: The Great Ghiblification, Shinigami Totori, The Sayama Incident, Mr. Sato's Transformation, The Demon of Reiwa, The Watatsumi Shrine Incident (a False Poo Operation?), YOUは何をしに日本へ, Studio SIX Shibari (link purposefully excluded as it is NSFW), and some relatively unknown news stories related to Japanese tourists behavior poorly abroad, the picnic incident being my personal favorite. Additionally—please note this erratum: There appears to be approximately zero (0) evidence that Johnny Somali is commonly referred to as “The Oni of Reiwa” (aka 令和の鬼) across the cyberplanes of the Interweb. A classic AI-chan brain burp. An illusion. A shimmering mirage in the Data Desert.This brings me to an important point: Please keep in the following disclaimer when listening to the Deep in Japan Podcast: We know nothing. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Also, this reality is likely just a low-budget sim run by a caffeinated intern in a higher dimension who's currently on break. So don't take anything srsly—especially not us. Please also note that Deep in Japan Podcast™ is entirely free-range, non-GMO, and listener-fueled—meaning it runs solely on the psychic energy and microtransactions of beautiful beings like YOU (hopefully). If you like what you hear, consider BECOMING A PATRON. Like most things, it only hurts the first time. If you've got something to say, drop me a line on Twitter at @DeepinJapanPod or email me at deep.in.japan.podcast@gmail.com. However, plz note that I'm far more likely to reply to MY AMAZING PATRONS. Apologies, but there are only so many hours in the day—and, well, some people are just better (perspectivally). Lastly, for those rare souls yearning to tap into the Deep in Japan Soundtrack™—a collection of vibes, echoes, and probable spells—venture boldly to my SUNO page, where waveforms wobble and basslines whisper like ancient melodic sutras.
In this episode of the Perth Property Show, host Trent Fleskens interviews Suzanne Brown, the newly appointed president of REWA.

Suzanne emphasizes the need for practical solutions and incentives to address the housing supply shortage and support vulnerable populations. The episode concludes with discussions on industry regulations and the importance of transparent and efficient processes in property management.

Godzilla Minus One (Gojira -1.0) is the 37th movie in the Godzilla franchise, the 33rd Godzilla movie from Toho Studios, and the fifth movie in the franchise's Reiwa era. It has grossed more than $150 million at the worldwide box office, making it the highest-grossing Japanese Godzilla movie. It is the first Godzilla movie ever nominated for an Academy Award, which it won, for Best Visual Effects. Godzilla Minus One is a prequel to the original movie, Godzilla (1954). And: Following the worst Memorial Day weekend at the domestic box office in nearly 30 years and the disappointing openings of the big-budget summer action movies The Fall Guy and Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, industry watchers are, let's say … in a bit of a panic.
