Good morning. This is Kojikana.

During the summer vacation, we held the "Kojikana x Mikoda Morning Market Karuta Tournament" on August 12th and 14th!

Surprisingly, all the cards in this karuta game are about the morning market!
You can learn about the Mikoda Morning Market while playing karuta.
Both the content and illustrations are all Kojikana originals!

On the day of the event, many children came and played!

And the highlight of the second day was the adult karuta tournament!
Many adults gathered, and I was a little surprised to see that "adults like karuta too!"

It was very impressive to see the adults playing like boys and girls, returning to their childlike innocence.

When I see everyone absorbed in enjoying something we created, even though the preparation is tough, I always think, "It was worth doing!"

Was karuta this fun? lol
