In this Dec. 23, 2014 file photo, Japan's Emperor Akihito waves to well-wishers as he and family members appear on the balcony of the Imperial Palace during the emperor's 81th birthday in Tokyo. Japanese will tune in to Emperor Akihito’s rare video message Monday, Aug. 8, 2016 following reports that he would abdicate in the next few years, which initially came as shock but which many people appeared to have welcomed as a deserved rest for the 82-year-old beloved monarch.
