Tachikawa Koshira, a master of the Tachikawa school of Rakugo, has expressed the traditional art of “Rakugo” in a humorous way. The story recreates the character of Nippon Travel’s founder, Minami Shinsuke, and episodes from the time of the company’s founding. We will continue to pass on our founding philosophy to future generations and pursue the excitement and satisfaction of our customers and the local community. ▶ Released today on the 120th anniversary special project site and official YouTube https://www.nta.co.jp/120/ \\ Completed video // https://img.youtube.com/vi/GYIm_hVwva8/sddefault.jpg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYIm_hVwva8 *Photo taken: March 5, 2025, Shiga Prefecture *This email has been sent automatically, so please do not reply.
