00:00Excellent is epic, something spectacular which we'll never get to see ever again, but it
00:19is really something out of this world.
00:25Though we got totally drenched, but it's all worth it.
00:29I think the beginning was a little slow, and the end part was much better.
00:34We were equipped, the umbrella, the kawaii, but when you want to party, it's not disturbing.
00:43There was a good atmosphere, everyone was happy to be there, even with the rain.
00:48I think the rain just added so much more to it, it made it very special.
00:53I think I'll never forget it.
00:54We're not waiting for anything, we're just waiting for the moment we've been waiting for
00:58for a long time, and here we are, it's the day, everything is going well, and even the
01:03rain won't spoil this historic moment.
01:06The ceremony was incredible, it's crazy.
01:09We thought the Parisians wouldn't be there, but from what I see, from what we see of the
01:14ceremony, we had doubts, we thought it would be difficult.
01:18It rained, but I think the idea of doing the ceremony on stage, on stage, is something
01:23magnificent.
01:24There are many other stadiums in France, but this one is Paris, it's magical, it's incredible,
01:28and it's perhaps one of the most beautiful Olympic Games in history here in Paris.
01:33It's been really cool watching it here, seeing the crowd, who they cheer for, and getting
01:37really involved, and I think they'll be able to pull it off, seem to go off pretty well.
01:42Yes, you know, Japan is like an island, but Europe is all connected, and everybody has
01:48all the reactions, and all the images towards each other, it's amazing.
01:53We love the food, and culture, and people, and we love everything.
01:57We enjoy it so much, it's so nice.
