(Camera: MARIA ROLDÁN)SHOT LIST: GENERAL B-ROLL OF TOKYO AHEAD OF THE OLYMPIC GAMES. SOUND BITES: Kana:I want to see them. The fan areas have been canceled to view them and thus there is less opportunity to enjoy them, even if the Games are held here. And I think the next ones will not be happening in a long time.Mikio WatanukiI think this is how they should be celebrated. Because after postponing the Games for a year and the effort that the athletes have made controlling their condition and now I imagine that doing them without an audience ... If I were an athlete, I imagine that I could not give 100% in my performance without an audience there.Shimicchi“Vaccination is starting now (in Japan) and they should control the public more. If they do not reduce the number of spectators, when the Games are over, the same thing that happened with the Go To campaign last year, in September, which spread infections throughout Japan could repeat itself.
