Finally, next prince will come?

Today many japanese peoples were excited to hear the news.

"Princess Kiko delivered a baby and he is a boy!"

Why this new made us so excited?

In Japan only men can succeed to the throne.
However no boy has been borned for 41 years in the imperial family.
The Crown Prince Naruhito and the crown princess Masako have only one child
and she is a 4 age- year- old girl.No boy.
So far his yonger brother Prince Akishino and Princess Kiko have two girls.
But no boy,too.
The Imperial family faced a crisis of continuing to exist.
Some intelligentsia discussed that it is the right time
to change the Imperial Houselaw
as "Woman can succeed the throne!".
But it is not easy.
Many japanese still don't want to change the historical system.

Here a boy has come!
What will they do?

well, wait and see.

As for me,
I don't care which one will be an emperor.
Woman emperor is OK for me! :-)
