    #1 - Omori - A Taste of the Sea

    S2:E1

    This time we explore the Omori area, located in the south of the city along Tokyo Bay. As a former aquaculture hub specializing in nori (edible seaweed), it retains a deep connection to the ocean. James Farrer (Professor, Sophia University) visits one of many local nori wholesalers, then encounters a group cultivating the crop using traditional methods. Later, he climbs to higher ground and learns about Omori's history as a tourist destination. Join us as we dive into this bayside neighborhood.

    #2 - Kanda - A Historic Town with Heart

    S2:E2

    Today the Kanda area in central Tokyo is a business district, but it has roots in the early days of the Edo period as a town of craftspeople and artisans. With a Kanda native as our guide, we explore its neighborhoods and search for traces of the past. Along the way we try traditional food and drink and meet locals who carry on the spirit of old Tokyo. We also pay our respects at Kanda Myojin Shrine and speak to a group that is busy preparing for the upcoming Kanda Festival.
