  1. Est-ce une impression ou l'ancienne princesse Mako et son mari Kei Komuro sont arrivés séparément de la famille Akishino (3ème photo) ? Pour cette triste circonstance, un effort aurait pu être fait pour que tout le monde soit réuni ; quelle mentalité bizarre !

      It appeared that way to me as well. If that is true, I find that shameful. They may find it necessary to follow these archaic rules when events happen within the Imperial family, but this is a private family matter. I hope I am wrong in this case. ~d

  2. Quite a relief that Kako and Kei (probably no alternative to this way to refer to them now) attended.

  3. I wanted to add, good that Kei looked openly towards the camera, nobody else seems to do so, at least on these pictures.
