NHK Documentary - Season 21 Episode 21 The People and Their Emperor

Trailer
Japan's Imperial system is said to have over 2,000 years of history. A series of esoteric rituals accompany an Emperor's accession. The program was able to reenact one such ritual, in which the Emperor is believed to dine with Shinto deities. A closer look at these traditions reveals how the Imperial institution has shifted with the times, and with the people. At a time when there are only 3 heirs to the throne, we take a look at what this could mean for the people of Japan and their Imperial system, based on newly found information.
