Welcome to “This Week in Nishinomiya,” where we look back on Nishinomiya openings and closings covered by “Nishitsu (Nishinomiya Tsushin)” this week (5/2-5/8), along with other topics that got people talking!
As the title says, I’ll say it upfront: it’s going to rain this weekend, and there are no events in Nishinomiya. So it’s the perfect weekend to get things done at home: clean the house, sell stuff you don’t need on Mercari, binge-watch movies, dramas, anime, or manga you’ve been meaning to catch up on, play UNO, board games, or video games with your family, have a Zoom or LINE drinking party, or, if you have a My Number Card, apply for the Special Cash Payment. Lots of stay-at-home productivity ahead.

Something That Changed on Nishitsu This Week
There was one change this week.
We Changed the Icon for the “Applaud” Feature at the End of Articles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Continuing from the week before the week before the week before the week before the week before the week before last, it’s this.
This thing we added to the end of articles starting that many weeks ago ↓

This icon.
We said we were going to make it bigger, but we ended up leaving it alone for eight whole weeks.
A-at last. At long last! Finally!!
Today (Friday, just barely) we changed the iconーーーーー!
To this ↓

Now that it’s bigger, we’re hoping the number of applauds will go up too! (Subtly putting pressure on all our readers)
By the way, this week’s total number of applauds with the small icon was a record-high 180. Last week was 129! Thank you!!!
Now that it’s bigger, we’re casually expecting around 500 applauds next week. (Adding more pressure on all our readers)
