Look at this bike! wow cool... It is a German maker's bike. It seems to be inspired by Kaneda's bike. Talking about bikes, the advertisement of Honda Italy is cool. This is Kame (turtle), Kiba (fang) , Ken (sword).
Even thought Japan is such a small country, there are 48 prefectures. suppose we can tell all 48 prefs, however it'll not be easy to tell each location in a map. This is the interesting research "Prefectures which we don't know where it is". In bar charts, red is answer of Hokkaido and Tohoku area, Orange is Kanto area, Yellow is Chubu area, Green is Kinki area, Pink is Chugoku, Shikoku area, then blue is the answer of Kyushu area people. They pick the prefectures which have less presence in each area and then ask do you know where it is to people.
Saga(green on map) pref is picked as the worse presence in Kyushu area, 21.3% of Hokkaido and Tohoku area people don't know where it is actually. The funny part is Saga people admit by themselves, it's very country and not so special. Shimane pref is picked as the worst presence in Chubu area, and 34.6% of Hokkaido and Tohoku are people don't know where is Shimane pref(yellow part).
Shiga (pink in Kinki area) has Kyoto and Fukui (purple in Chubu area) has Ishikawa next to them, they would be overshadowed by those tourist neighborhoods.
In Kanto area, Tochigi was selected the worst presence pref. Actually 36.6% of Kinki area people don't know where it is (orange). Hmm. Tochigi has the national park Nikko and good hot spring area. For me it's a good place for a one-day trip.
In Tohoku area, Fukushima is picked in Tohoku and Hokkaido area. I can tell where it is, but I must agree with this result, because I can't imagine the specialty or famous souvenir of Fukushima pref. :-)
