The Aomori Keizai Shimbun's PV (page view) ranking for the first half of 2023 was an article introducing the crepe shop "Plume" that opened in Chikari.

The ranking is a compilation of the PVs of "Headline News" distributed for half a year from January 1st to June 30th this year. The rankings up to 10th place are as follows (posting dates are in parentheses).

In the first half of this year, articles on new store openings and events were popular. The result is that the corona wreck has settled down, and there is a growing interest in places to eat out and event information.

The article on the soul food of Aomori citizens, “stick bread,” also made it into the ranking. It is becoming established as a movement, such as holding events featuring bread sticks. I would like to continue to follow Aomori's stick bread situation.

The Hideaki Anno exhibition currently being held at the Aomori Prefectural Museum of Art, which was ranked 5th, reached 45,000 visitors on July 1st, and is visited by fans of all generations every day.
