The lighting makes the rising sun look like a 3D sphere. It's an interesting idea if they ever want to update the flag.

Yes, the Olympics will get back to the Land of the Rising Sun's Capital, Tokyo in 2020. I can hardly wait for it. Very hopeful picture!

Surely that should be "The Olympic Flag is raised", not "risen"?

An utter waste of money for a country so heavily in debt.

Yes, yes, it's been said a million times.
They're going to do it anyways, so you may as well stop complaining about it.
