Cool images I love the Japanese culture inspired by anime , wish one day to tour Japan , btw what is the ama diving ?
Good luck

Ama are the female divers in Japan, they free dive ie without an oxygen tank. Traditionally they would wear these white outfit when they dive, but sadly there are not many Ama divers left now, most are in their sixties or even older!
