The Coolest of the Cool 2015

The "Best of Cools" are chosen during each broadcast of Cool Japan as one of the coolest aspects of Japan. We will introduce all the best of cools broadcasted in 2015 by genre. We will then choose the coolest among them as the "Coolest of the Cool 2015." In addition, we will quiz you on unexpected answers given by foreigners in town to whom we asked what in Japan surprised them. This is a special project in which we review the previous year and discover new Japanese cools.
