DUDE NO WAY 😭

As of March 21, 2026:

My name is Takayuki Nanto. Until just a few days ago, I operated a YouTube channel that housed a vast library of approximately 1,800 videos—each of considerable length. Regrettably, due to a personal error on my part, that entire channel has vanished into thin air. Having accepted this loss, I now intend to create a fresh batch of videos from scratch, organizing them into roughly five distinct, theme-specific channels through which I will continue to share content.

On *this* particular channel, I will offer a comprehensive exploration of Akina Nakamori’s multifaceted artistry—encompassing her vocals, lyrics, choreography, makeup, costumes, acting in dramas and films, talk show appearances, comedic performances, and more. However, as I am by no means an expert in the visual aspects of her work, I will leave those specific areas to be covered by others who possess greater expertise in them. My own focus—reflecting a lifelong dedication spanning some 60 years to the study of languages, particularly Japanese and English—will be to approach her work from a linguistic perspective, delving deeply into the nuances and richness of the lyrics she sings.

In addition to this channel, I plan to launch several other dedicated channels where I will post numerous videos covering a diverse range of topics: literature, foreign language learning, the interpretation of lyrics in Western music (specifically English and French songs), and personal reflections on life itself.

Other channels I operate:
