To clarify a bit, “missing link” is a series highlighting interesting and sometimes surprising, but in general not totally obvious, connections between technologies and/or society.

Life is Strange Remastered, Life is Strange: Before the Storm Remastered, and Life is Strange 2 Complete Season have all been rated by the ESRB for the PS5.

Daycare/Kindergarten is already free across the country for all children starting at 3 years old.
My information might be biased towards the greater Kanto area (Tokyo/Yokohama), but I’m not aware of anybody paying less then 20000 Yen (a little over $100 USD I guess) per month per child for a place in a public daycare (can be more than double, depending on the area/daycare, and much more for private ones).
It’s much more complicated, though. You can receive various support money from the state/prefecture/city, but it’s usually less than what you have to pay. And you’re not guaranteed a place, and the waiting list cam be long (especially in highly populated areas in Tokyo).


I think you’re missing a lot of metadata (last modified, history?) in those files. Haven’t checked in a while, though.
