TDV Reports: Tokyo Midtown Promo

Posted by tokyodv in Culture, Technology

Engrish!A promo clip shown at Tokyo Midtown’s press conference last Monday.

“Various elements are intertwined to contribute to the diversity by accepting and stimulating each other.”.. Sounds fun..

The audio translation is a bit tough to pick up, but I’m not sure if it’s due to the audio level or the content of the speech.. Sometimes Japanese just doesn’t translate well.

The clip has some nice shots of the general area, and also shows how Tokyo Midtown has ‘intertwined’ Japanese cultural icons, such as the ‘torii’ and bamboo paneling.
