Visiting Tokyo for the opening of the Olympic Games, the President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron, obviously met his Japanese counterparts on the spot. We know that he met Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga, but not only that, since he was also able to cross paths with several well-known artists in Japan (and internationally) in the world of culture. Indeed, Emmanuel Macron was able to exchange a few words with Katsuhiro Otomo, the author of Akira, Hiro Mashima, at the origin of Fairy Tail, but also Hidetaka Miyazaki, the creator of the Dark Souls license. A moment that was filmed for a short time and shared on the President’s Twitter account.
Happy to share a moment with these artists, authors of works like Akira, Fairy Tail, Dark Souls, Towards the light, and many others. They are myths in Japan, in France too! The success of #PassCulture confirms it: culture brings us together. pic.twitter.com/Itnd9c4KFP
