shirley is so popular in japan that there is the anne academy in fukuoka that teaches girls how to speak english with a maritime accent while in okayama there is the school of green gables, a nursing school that teaches young women how to behave like shirley. hanako muraoka, the japanese woman who translated "anne of green gables" into japanese, has become a celebrity in her own right solely for translating the book, and in 2014 nhk aired a television mini-series titled "hanako to anne" about muraoka's life and her struggle to get "anne of green gables" translated and published in japan. muraoka read "anne of green gables" in 1939 and started translating the book the same year, but it until 1952 that her translation of "anne of green gables" was finally published in japan. "hanako to anne" which aired between march–september 2014 was a great rating success, getting an average of 22% viewership in the kanto region (the most populous part of japan), and caused a doubling of japanese tourists to prince edward island. the series, which starred yuriko yoshitaka as muraoka, suggested that there were many parallels between muraoka's life and anne's, and thus was a sort of retelling of anne's life in the late meiji, taishō and early shōwa periods of japanese history. in 1993, a theme park called canadian world opened in hokkaido whose most popular attraction was a reproduction of green gables. in 2010, the "globe and mail" wrote: "it could almost be declared that anne's true home isn't rural prince edward island any more. it's japan, where lucy maud montgomery's tale of anne and her pigtailed innocence remains so popular that it has become ingrained in the national consciousness since the book's original japanese translation as "red-haired anne" in 1952." in 2014, the japanese diplomat eiji yamamoto told a journalist from the "toronto star": "even though she's an orphan, anne is a free spirit, she says anything she wants. in the years after world war ii, the japanese people were poor. there were many orphans. and people had lost hope. they were anxious. anne is an optimist. she helped people get courage."
