- Japanese researchers say urination is contagious among chimpanzees.
When one of the primates relieves itself, others in the group quickly follow suit. The pattern is consistent with other group imitation behaviors, such as yawning or stretching.
Onishi Ena of the Kyoto University Wildlife Research Center and her colleagues observed 20 captive chimpanzees over 600 hours in Kumamoto Prefecture, southwestern Japan. They found that the shorter the distance between chimps in a group, the more likely they would relieve themselves within just over three minutes after the first one. Onishi said the motives for this behavior remain a mystery, though they may be using it to try to establish relationships within the group.

- People in Niigata Prefecture in central Japan embraced the cold for a ritual meant to bring good fortune in the New Year.
The event takes place annually on the night of January 14 in the Yasuda District of Agano City. Participants sprint from one Shinto shrine to another to offer prayers while shouting and carrying torches. About 40 people joined this year, some going shirtless and others donning judo uniforms. They started at Sumiyoshi Shrine and doused each other with buckets of water. They then ran to Yasuda Hachimangu Shrine, shouting as local residents cheered them on by splashing them with water. Once at the shrine, the participants huddled together to keep warm. They then jumped into a pool of cold water at the gateway to purify themselves, drawing cheers from the crowd. Afterward, they walked up to the shrine and prayed for the safety and health of their families in the year ahead. #japan #traditional #ritual #niigata #festival

The magnitude 7.3 quake struck before dawn on January 17th, devastating Kobe City in western Japan and surrounding areas. 30 years later, people attended the annual gathering at a park in Kobe to remember the disaster and those who lost their lives. Lanterns form the date 1-17 and spell out the Japanese word "yorisou," which means to stand with. There was a moment of silence at 5:46 a.m., the exact time the quake occurred. More than 100 billion dollars has been spent on recovery efforts. In October, the last building included in reconstruction projects was completed. #japan #earthquake #disaster

- Players in vibrant traditional attire revived the ancient ball game of "kemari" as part of a New Year ritual at Kyoto’s Shimogamo Shrine. This Shinto shrine, recognized as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site, hosts the event every year on January 4, keeping alive a tradition that dates back to the Heian period (late 8th to 12th century). Once a favorite pastime of Japanese noblemen, kemari focuses on grace and teamwork rather than competition. Eight players take turns kicking a lightweight deerskin ball—20 centimeters in diameter and weighing about 150 grams—while rhythmically chanting "ari" or "ya" to maintain focus and flow. The crowd cheered each time the players skillfully kept the ball aloft.#japan #kyoto #history #traditional #shrine #unesco

- People in Japan have chosen the Chinese character meaning "gold" or "money" as the kanji that best symbolizes this year. An association promoting the use of kanji announced the result of its annual poll on Thursday with a calligraphy performance at Kiyomizu-dera temple in Kyoto City. Chief priest Mori Seihan wrote the kanji "kin," which can also be read as "kane," with a brush on a large sheet of paper.
The association says the winner garnered 12,100 votes out of some 221,900 entries. This is the fifth time that this character has been selected since the poll started in 1995. Association officials say it was chosen because of the many gold medals Japanese athletes won in the Paris Olympics and Paralympics. They also cite MLB player Ohtani Shohei winning his third MVP. The officials note that the registration of Sado Island's gold mines as a World Heritage site was apparently on people's minds.
