It explains the use of macrons to mark long vowel sounds in Japanese (such as ō) while omitting them for common place names like Tokyo.

Also it is not true that all are linked naturally to their regions. Many are flung down carelessly at birth and they experience the diminishment and sometimes the pleasant truculence of their random misplacement. Americans who are Germans, Germans who are Frenchmen, like Heine perhaps.  \n—Elizabeth Hardwick, Sleepless Nights  \nSomeone remarked that you should give up any art of which you have not become a master by the age of fifty. At that age there is no prospect that you may acquire it by hard work. . . . If there is something you would like to know, study it if you like, but once you have learned the general principles and your curiosity is assuaged, you should stop. Best of all is to dispense with such desires from the start.  \n—Kenkō, Essays in Idleness (trans. Donald Keene)  \nAuthor’s Note  \nJapanese names are written in the order of surname followed by given name, except in those instances when the person being referenced lives and works in a Western country and uses the Western name order.  \nMacrons are used throughout to indicate long vowel sounds (for example, ō) in Japanese, but they are omitted in the case of common placenames (such as Tokyo) .  \nI have sought to apply these rules consistently throughout the book, but I apologize in advance for any unintended lapses from this practice, and for other language-related errors. The research for, and writing of, this book was carried out over eight years and four trips to Japan, and at varying stages of Japanese language acquisition.","cbCairlTLWAwDICR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairlTLWAwDICR","pdf",2766731,193,"English","# Author’s Note\n## Japanese name order\n## Macron usage in Japanese\n## Consistency and acknowledgements","[{\"question\":\"How are Japanese names written in the book?\",\"answer\":\"Japanese names are written in surname-followed-by-given-name order, except when the referenced person lives and works in a Western country and uses Western name order.\"},{\"question\":\"Are macrons used for long vowel sounds?\",\"answer\":\"Yes.
