What an amazing video, From the history to the most recent footage, it was shot and edited beautifully. Got me tearing up at the end there especially when the husband joined in cause she was emotional! Thanks for sharing your/the asada family's story with us :)

Sweet. Deep. Personal. Complex. Simple. Life. Death. Excellent film. Thank you for making and sharing this experience with us all! It does a brilliant job of showing us how events are so unique to our own perspectives and points of view. No matter how it may seem to those on the outside looking in -- on anything in life -- we all have to do our best to stop from making judgments on others. Only good wishes from me, here in the US, and all of us who followed this tragedy from afar. 🙏✌💚

Hmm i wonder if Kuniko is still alive - after all its been 13 years. Googled a bit and found what i believe to be her Facebook account (She loves flowers and there is a flower as profile pic) but nothing else. I know the chances are slim that she or Miyake is ever going to read this but i hope life treated them better after all of this.
