This line graph shows the number of
international visitors to Japan, in millions, from 2010 to 2014.
In 2010, there were approximately
8.6 million tourists from overseas. This number dropped to about 6.2 million in
the next year. It is thought to be related to the impact of the big earthquake
which occurred on 11th of March in 2011. After the year, however,
there was a steady growth, reaching a peak of about 13 million in 2014, which
is more than twice as many as in 2011. According to the Economist (2015), this
rise is attributed to the weakness of the yen that was caused by Abenomics, “the
plan by prime minister, Sinzo Abe, to boost the economy mainly through
central-bank easing.”
Overall, this graph represents the
hardship Japan experienced in the disaster and the following effort to improve
its economy.

Akio, I think you have to change the last sentence, because your graph is not about economy but tourism . The script does not have to be analytical, but factual.
