The company's revival is still up in the air because Mitsubishi Motors' new models must be attractive enough.

The earnings momentum at Kawasaki Kisen and other Japanese shippers has already peaked. It's not good to aggressively invest in the sector at this moment.

The repeated safety mishaps highlight a lack of control within the company. I can't look at the company as a possible investment until it can demonstrate clear signs of recovery.

When I was a little girl, I used to watch a lot of monster movies, like 'Godzilla.' All those monster movies.

When watching movies, I was always inspired by the performances of the cast. Of course, the story and the direction and all that intrigued me. But what actors would propel themselves to do, and be, was awesome. It was like, how could these people give so much?

I've seen 'Babel' four times. And each time I realize anew what a monumental project that had been for me.
