The program of NHK special "My love for Japan with great Japanese novelists by Donald Keene" was very impressive for me.
I've known him very well since he had moved to Japan and decided to be a Japanese at his age 89 because of 3.11 in 2011. Many foreigners gave their life away from Japan but he barely came to Japan and lived forever in the rest of his life.
He is now 93-year-old and trying to make efforts to translate Japanese great literature into English because he really loves Japanese culture and wants to let the world know the virtue and the beauty of real Japan.
I'm really moved with his amazing passion as a Japanese! He is as it were more like a Japanese than anyone else.
