VOICED : Multitudes a favor y en contra de los JJOO fuera del estadio de Tokio

The opening ceremony of the Olympics was held without an audience due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite this, many people gathered near the stadium, some to enjoy the festive atmosphere and others to protest. A small group protested at Sendagaya train station against the event, which was postponed last year. Security was present, but many still enjoyed the limited view of the ceremony. The event was seen as a rare opportunity, evoking strong emotions, but also fear due to the virus. Initially, many Japanese opposed the Olympics, but opinions softened as athletes arrived and the event began.
