Yes, I see the logic. The airlines charge passengers 50,000 - 60,000 yen round trip for the 1 hour flight to, say, Osaka. Passengers should be happy to pay this if Ultraman's there to see them off.

Aizu has some historical sites and decent snowskiing nearby. Or if you prefer camping or the sea, you can head to Iwaki. The prefecture as a whole is very rural, but that's a benefit sometimes when overwhelmed by concrete in Tokyo.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming...
