[Media] Appearance on NHK General TV’s “Hirumae Hotto”

NHK General TV’s “Hirumae Hotto” (April 16) aired a 17-minute special feature on programming education.
The segment featured sisters Kaede and Hikari—both regulars at programming competitions—as they teamed up to compete in a programming contest. That duo is unbeatable! Both Kaede and Hikari have won the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Award at the U22 Programming Competition!
I was honored to have the opportunity to comment on the segment featuring the two of them (*^^*)
