Japanese princess flies economy class, praised for her humility as viral photo wins hearts

Princess Kako of Japan has sparked global admiration after a photo of her resting in an economy class seat during a flight in Brazil surfaced online. The 30-year-old, a member of the Japanese imperial family and niece of Emperor Naruhito, is gaining attention for her relatable charm and commitment to duty. In the video, falling asleep shortly after taking her seat.(X/@Yuki) The photo, showing Princess Kako asleep against the window of a domestic flight, has circulated widely across social media platforms. A report in SCMP said the princess had an exhausting day, visiting four different locations before boarding the plane during her 11-day official trip to Brazil. The visit, organised at the invitation of the Brazilian government, included stops in eight cities. Viewers of the video, where she is seen falling asleep shortly after taking her seat, have expressed both sympathy and admiration. One social media user commented, 'She looked like a porcelain doll. It is completely understandable to feel tired with such a packed schedule.' Another expressed concern for the princess's privacy, saying, 'Videos like this should not be shared. Princess Kako is a hardworking and humble role model. We should protect her, not expose her.' More about Princess Kako of Japan Princess Kako has increasingly stepped into the spotlight in recent years, especially after her elder sister, Princess Mako, left the imperial family in 2021 to marry her college sweetheart and relocate to New York. Kako has since taken on a more public role, often travelling alone on international engagements and representing the royal household. Admired for her grace, sincerity, and dedication, Japanese media have described her as 'the hope of Japan.' During her coming-of-age address, she expressed her approach to her duties, stating, 'I believe I should carry out every task I am humbly entrusted with, sincerely and respectfully.' She has also candidly admitted to having a short temper, which she considers her biggest flaw. Outside of her official responsibilities, Princess Kako has a background in sports and academics. A former figure skater, she won a district competition in 2007. She later studied performing arts and psychology at the University of Leeds in the UK. Known for her fluency in sign language, she actively participates in social welfare initiatives. Her distinct fashion sense has further boosted her popularity, setting her apart from the traditionally conservative style choices of the Japanese royal family. Princess Kako is known for favouring bright colours and detailed designs, igniting what many describe as a nationwide 'Kako craze.' During her Brazil visit, her white dress adorned with camellia patterns received over 500,000 likes online. Her outfit choices regularly create a buzz, as seen during a trip to Greece last year when a royal blue knit top she wore sold out within two days, and the brand's website experienced a surge in traffic. Similarly, porcelain earrings she showcased — crafted using traditional Japanese techniques — saw sales jump 50-fold shortly after. Her vibrant style and modern attitude continue to attract praise. As one admirer put it, 'Her outfits are never boring. Princess Kako truly shows the charming, lively and stylish side of royalty.'

Demon Slayer Infinity Castle trailer: Sony, Crunchyroll go big on the ‘Final Battle'

Sony Pictures and Crunchyroll, after an endless wait, finally released the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle trailer, teasing 'the beginning of the end'. The movie trilogy was announced last year, right after the Hashira Training Arc finale. Directed by Haruo Sotozaki and animated by Ufotable, the upcoming Infinity Castle film will wrap up the fan favourite Demon Slayer anime for good. The upcoming movie picks up right after the anime's fourth season and is adapted from the final arc of Koyoharu Gotoge's original manga. Tanjiro, along with other Demon Slayer Corps members, are thrown into the enemy's nest, the Infinity Castle, after Muzan Kibutsuji, the main villain, launches a surprise attack. The chapter is the final faceoff between demons and the slayers. The first film will open in theatres across North America on September 12.

This battle may finally reach its conclusion tonight.' Cut to the next scene, we see intense action sequences, thrilling visuals, and the ultimate faceoffs fans have been waiting for. The movie also comes with two original soundtrack tracks: 'A World Where the Sun Never Rises' by Aimer and 'Shine in the Cruel Night' by LiSA. Both songs will drop on streaming platforms on July 18, when we might also get another teaser or trailer. Before this, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train, which was released in 2020, crushed box office records with an unexpected surge in popularity. The film ended up making over $507 million globally, becoming the highest-earning anime movie of all time. It also went down as Japan's most successful film to date, so this time, the stakes are really high. For those new to the franchise, Demon Slayer tells the story of a young boy named Tanjiro Kamado who lived peacefully in the mountains, supporting his family. But one day, when he returned to his village, he found his entire family brutally slaughtered by a demon. The only survivor was his sister, Nezuko, who had also turned into a demon. Unlike others, though, she still had a soft spot for Tanjiro. But he couldn't bear to see her in that state. Tanjiro ends up joining the Demon Slayer Corps to find a way to turn her human again and destroy the demon king Muzan. The upcoming trilogy is where that fight finally ends. Demon Slayer has stayed one of the highest-grossing, most-read manga ever since it debuted in 2018.
