dont know why they’re doing this, they’ve already barred any foreigners from entering and as we know they’re the only ones that will cause trouble anyway

Spot on, mate. Every step of the way there are orders on which direction to go, how far to stay away from each other, cones, flashing roadblocks, signs, people with flags pointing the direction, arrows on the ground, and on top of that it's coming from the speakers.

That doesn't look very welcoming!
Seems too often great care and detailed workmanship goes into places like this in Tokyo, only to be ruined by poorly chosen "temporary" security fences go up around it, ruining the aesthetics.
When I temporary, seems no limit as I see the same weathered road cones set outside a building near my place for the last 5 years.
And don't get me started on the unnecessary blocking of roads from pedestrians for big events!

Everyone knows that Covid-19 can't pass through fences.

Extra - Security!?
Takes the fun out of the games, why not have few fights and exiting punches! isn't that what fans and supporters are suppose to do while cheering their team?

Uh... I have a cheaper solution... small signs saying "COVID-1 - Danger!" written on them... say no more.
