“My vibe is kidnapped.” Atsuko Okatsuka’s upcoming special, "Father," mines comedy from gender expectations, failing as an adult and family drama — just in time for Father's Day. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2025/05/30/stage/atsuko-okatsuka-comedy/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #culture #stage #atsukookatsuka #comedy #tokyocomedybar #yuriecollins #shibuyaward #tokyo #standup #disneyplus #hulu

This year, Shibuya is cancelling Halloween. But if it aspires to 'icon' status, it shouldn't be turning people away. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2023/10/30/japan/shibuya-halloween-cancelled-mistake/?utm_content=buffera6b50&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #commentary #japan #tokyo #shibuya #shibuyaward #halloween #kenhasebe #drinking #alcohol #localgovernment
Tokyo’s Shibuya Ward was prepared for a potentially raucous Halloween weekend on Saturday, but measures to deter costumed revelers from gathering in the trendy area — including a ban on street drinking — appeared to be relatively effective. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/10/29/japan/society/tokyo-shibuya-halloween-celebrations/?utm_content=buffera28f9&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #japan #society #kenhasebe #tokyo #shibuya #localgovernment #halloween #drinking #shibuyaward #alcohol
