Warner Bros. Entertainment, Inc., a leading US film-making company, plans to open a Harry
Potter theme park in Tokyo by the spring of 2023, The Yomiuri Shimbun has learned.

Warner Bros plans to construct the park on part of land that is currently occupied by the soon-
to-be-closed Toshimaen Amusement Park in Nerima ward, Tokyo.

Warner Bros will lease part of the about 20-hectare plot of land, which is owned by Seibu Group,
while the Tokyo metropolitan government will buy the rest of the land from Seibu to develop a park.
The existing amusement facilities and swimming pools of Toshimaen will gradually close. Negotiations
are underway between Warner Bros, Seibu Group, the Tokyo metropolitan government, and others -
with a decision expected to be formally made by this spring.

The content of the theme park is being discussed, with reference to Warner Bros' film-making
studio in London where visitors can tour the studio sets that were actually used for the making of the
Harry Potter films. On this tour, visitors can stroll through the sets, including those of the Great Hall of
the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry; the shopping street of Diagon Alley; and the Platform
of the Hogwarts Express locomotive. They can also see movie props up close, including magic wands.
This is referred to as a studio-type facility, which is different from those of Universal Studios in the
United States or Universal Studios Japan (USJ) in Osaka, where rides and attractions are also available.

Toshimaen opened in 1926 and had been a leading amusement park in central Tokyo. It includes
amusement facilities, swimming pools and hot spa facilities. After the Great East Japan Earthquake in
2011, the Tokyo metropolitan government decided to build a large park as part of its disaster-
prevention measures. The government offered to purchase the land from Seibu, but the negotiations
have stagnated in recent years. According to sources, Warner Bros., with a proposal of creating the
Harry Potter theme park, joined the negotiations around last year, which has gotten the talks moving
again.

Harry Potter is a story by British writer J.K. Rowling, with the titular boy wizard the main
character. It was first published in 1997 in Britain, and its Japanese translation was published in 1999 in
Japan. As the story became a global hit, Warner Bros made a screen version of the story in 2001. Sequels
of both the story and the film have been made.
 At USJ, about 45 billion yen (US$413.1 million) was injected into the opening of the Harry Potter
facilities in 2014. The number of visitors to USJ in fiscal 2014 totaled 12.7 million, up 2 million from a
year earlier. As USJ is also fairly popular among foreign visitors to Japan, it has become a centrepiece of
sightseeing tours in the Kansai region.

TEXT 1

As a hospice and palliative medicine physician, my job is to help reduce suffering. At the end of life, that
job becomes especially intense when time is short, when machines and data seem to be taking over, and
so many intense emotions surround a body that is trying to die. But here in that narrow trench, both
providers and patients do have power to shape their experience together, especially if they take the
time to have a few crucial conversations. In the spirit of palliation, here are a few things, as a physician, I
wish I could share more often with patients and their caregivers.

You don’t need to be dying to receive palliative care. In hospitals, it is still common for palliative care
clinicians to be pulled aside by a well-meaning though misinformed nurse or doctor who says, "This poor
family is miserable, but they're not ready for palliative care yet." They imply that either the patient is not
dying, or the patient does not realize that he or she is dying. But what this statement does is to conflate
hospice or end-of-life care with palliative care. Palliative care is an approach, framed within the context
of serious illness, where easing suffering is the goal. So, you just need to be sick and suffering to qualify
for palliative care, not necessarily dying any time soon. Don't be afraid to say you want it.

Don’t wait for your doctor to bring up hospice. Doctors tend to wait too long to acknowledge when
death is close. And as research has made clear, the closer we feel to the patient, the more wildly we
overestimate their prognosis. In an effort to get primary physicians to think sooner about
recommending hospice, researchers came up with the "surprise question." As in: "Doctor, would you be
surprised if your patient died within a year?" If the answer is no, then that doctor should start
considering a referral to hospice. But there is nothing stopping you from asking the surprise question
yourself. If you live with advancing chronic illness and are thinking about how you want your life to go,
you might turn the table and ask: "Hey doc, would you be surprised if I died in the next year?" This is a
good and bold way to open an honest dialogue with your doctor and get the sort of support you need.
It’s OK to laugh. In my book, "A Beginner's Guide to the End: Practical Advice for Living Life and Facing
Death," someone tells of their stepfather wearing a shirt that read, "I'm so old I can't find my own nuts,"
with a doodle of a squirrel on it. His dying wish was to make his daughter laugh, and it helped both of
them immensely. To honor him, she buried him in that shirt, sealing his personality in death as it had
been in life. Illness isolates people, not just physically. When we get sick, people around us start
censoring themselves. The solemnity is supposed to be a form of kindness, perhaps, but it can feel more
like yet another loss, almost a premature death. As patients and caregivers know, illness and its
indignities offer plenty of rich material for humor. The joke is only on us if we don't find some way to
laugh back.
