NHK Newsline Schedule

As the title says, I'm a little confused because last week and again this week, I noticed that NHK Newsline was only 10 minutes long instead of the usual 30 minutes. I know that it used to be a 15-minute program, with occasional 10-minute editions, but didn't they switch to a 30-minute format more than a year ago?

Have they switched back to the shorter format again? If not, is there a publicly available schedule showing when they're going to air the 10–15-minute editions and when they'll return to the regular 30-minute format, or is it something we'll only know once the program actually airs?

This might sound a little crazy, but I actually use the show as my break, especially the 12 noon broadcast. I don't know why, but the airtime and duration are just perfect for me to rest my shoulders and hands after typing for a while. I was also advised to take short breaks like this a few times during working hours, so I've kind of gotten used to using NHK Newsline as my little break time.

Darwin's Amazing Animals - Otter, Singapore

https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/shows/4030021/

I just caught this episode by chance, and would like to keep a copy of it for my personal viewing in future.

How do I go about downloading this? I saw a post over a year ago and I'm unsure if that method still works. Also I'm afraid I'll miss the live programming and therefore miss out on the recording.

Appreciate if anyone could help or point me in the right direction. Thank you.

Looking for the artist featured in Document 72 Hours: Rolling Along on Kochi's Streetcars

Greetings everyone,

I recently watched the Document 72 Hours episode "Rolling Along on Kochi's Streetcars" on NHK World. (here's the link : https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/shows/4026247/ )

Towards the end of the episode, a passenger shows her traditional hand-drawn art on paper (I’ve attached a screenshot of her artwork shown on her smartphone screen).

I really love her art style and would love to follow her on social media if she has any (Instagram, X, etc.), but I haven't been able to find her through reverse image search.

Does anyone happen to know her handle or where to find her work?

Have a wonderful day ! :)

(Sorry if this type of post isn't allowed or if this isn't the right place to ask, I'm brand new to Reddit...)
