This is the English Edition of
u’†‚”N‚ΜŒ³‹CIv "Viva, Seniors!"

Most of the works are the English translation
of my domestic travelogues,
with the introduction
of the local Japanese climate
in my own way
- scenery, history, culture, food, people, ...

In addition,
the English version of my travels abroad,
autobiographical novels, essays and notes.

I hope this will be helpful for people overseas
to know Japan a little more.

Click any link part as you like,
and the new window will appear.

The story of Kanematsu Auditorium
in the Kunitachi Campus of Hitotsubashi University.
It wsa built in Musashino Wilderness those days.
Goroji Suga, accompanied by Ryohei Tsubune
and Eriko Fukami, persues the mystery
behind the auditorium of his alma mater.
Why do many monsters flock in and out the auditorium?
Why did Dr. Chuta Ito, a famous architect,
take on its building and devote himself to make
numerous monsters inside by himself,
commuting all the way to the remote place
from Metropolitan Tokyo in those inconvenient days?
Why are the Four-God Statues decorated on the facade?
Some clue may be hidden in the auditorium itself.
