The joy of finding something in the city
Celeina: What is the charm of old roads, Ogikubo-san?
Ogikubo: One is the pleasure of finding them. Old roads have stone Buddha statues from the Edo period by the side of the road, or the luxurious gate of an old family, or a mansion. There are also remnants of tiny Inari shrines and so on. It is interesting to encounter the casual history of the area.
Takano: It’s like collecting items in an RPG.
Celeina: It’s like solving a riddle.
Ogikubo: It’s like when you find something old that has been overlooked and left uncleaned in the midst of everyone’s modern life, and you say, “I’m glad you’re all alive,” or “How are you?” It’s like that.
Celeina: I would like to play a song around this time. I asked Ogikubo-san to choose a song that he would like everyone to listen to together on the radio at this time. What song would it be?
Ogikubo: Yesterday, when Ueki-san talked about his love of cats, I thought of this song when I thought of cats, so I made a request. It was “The Love Cats” by The Cure.
