“Challenge! Machi★Asobi vol.3”, which is a comprehensive entertainment event “ Machi★Asobi ” that “plays around Tokushima” and turned it into a “tour-type event” as a countermeasure against the new coronavirus infection, will be held on Saturday, May 14, 2022. It has begun. The exhibition period is until June 5th (Sunday), and it is a serious strategy that does not stop at the center of Tokushima, but also covers the prefectural borders with other prefectures, such as Naruto City in the north, Miyoshi City in the west, and Kaiyo Town in Ama County in the south. Then, the distance traveled is unusual.

◆Opening concert
It was said that ``There is no stage event in this Machi★Asobi'', but when I went there, the setting was progressing...



A performance stage by Shikoku University was scheduled.



Many of the events in 'Challenge! Machi★Asobi vol.3' involve participants going around on their own and exhibiting, so there was no clear start, but the Shikoku University Brass Band opened the event.

◆“Demon Slayer: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” sliding door and head mark display
At the Higashishinmachi Shopping District, where the movie theater `` ufotable CINEMA '' is located, there was an exhibition of items displayed at ` `Demon Slayer: Anime Anniversary Festival' '. This is a group of sliding doors in the ``red light district infiltration area'' where you can experience the world view of the red light district edition of ``Demon Slayer: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba''.



There are sliding doors lined up on the red carpet inside the arcade.



When it appears in the shopping district, it is both beautiful and gives off the feeling that something is about to happen...




From the 'Demon Slayer: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba' Mugen Train edition, the 'Infinite' head mark from 'Real Mugen Train' has arrived.



You can feel the 'pressure' just from the head mark.



Above the arcade, a total of 35 banners of anime, games, etc. are flying wild, and a shopping street is being jacked up.



In addition, 'Demon Slayer: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba' also holds a stamp rally to collect 5 types of Tokushima local stamps. Stamp locations are ufotable CINEMA, ufotable Cafe Tokushima, Machi★Asobi CAFE Bizan, Awa Odori Kaikan, and Awa Bank Main Branch Sales Department.

Machi★Asobi CAFE Bizan is located at the top of Mt. Bizan, and is a little far from the other four locations, but if you use the Bizan Ropeway, you can get there in about 7 minutes one way.



◆Gourmet Hunt

808 Cafe Demeter
“Gourmet Hunt” is simply a restaurant stamp rally. If you visit each store and meet the set gourmet hunt conditions, you will receive a stamp and a postcard.

``808 Cafe Demeter'' is located near JR Sako Station and across from Hello's Sako store.


This is what the store looks like.



We carry a variety of smoothies.



Gourmet Hunt requires an order of 500 yen or more, so any smoothie is fine. This is said to be the most popular 'Green Smoothie' (no tapioca, 500 yen including tax).



◆Gourmet Hunt/

PenFork
Bakery and cafe space 'PenFork' is located in Bandai-cho, Tokushima City. Near the Tokushima Prefectural Office and the Tokushima City Transportation Bureau Bandai Garage.


The stylish exterior looks like a renovated port warehouse.



If you come by car, please be careful as there are only two parking spaces available. By public transportation, the

Bandaicho 5-chome bus stop is a 3-minute walk away.



It feels like a kitchen has been built inside while keeping the warehouse shape alive.



The gourmet hunt condition is ``butter chicken curry (900 yen)''. Business hours start from 9:00, but curry is only served from 11:00.



◆Gourmet Hunt Pancake Cafe Mahalo
This is where the pancake and lunch shop ``Mahalo'' is located. This is the corner of a modified intersection.


The store is on the first floor of an apartment building. There is a parking lot in front of the store for 5 cars, and it was packed tightly during lunch and snack hours.



The gourmet hunt condition was ``chocolate banana cup pancake (880 yen) or caramel banana cup pancake (880 yen)'', so I ordered the chocolate banana cup pancake.



It looks like a parfait, but there are pancakes hidden under the soft serve ice cream.



◆Gourmet Hunt

Mori Coffee Shop
``Mori Coffee Shop'' is one of the restaurants that opens early in the morning in front of Tokushima Station. It is located in front of the station rotary.


It is located at the back of the 1st floor of the Tokushima Station Terminal Building.



The gourmet hunt conditions are ``3 drip coffees for 600 yen (take-out)/blended coffee for 550 yen/cream soda for 700 yen.'' This time I chose cream soda.



One of the characteristics of Mori Coffee Shop is that they collect postcards from gourmet hunts, and the results are posted inside the shop. It's a huge number, and it's worth seeing just for this reason.



◆Gourmet Hunt/

Chinese Soba Yamakyo
Yamakyo is a restaurant that offers the classic flavor of Tokushima ramen, the brown type.


It is located at the south foot of Bentenbashi Bridge, which spans the Ayuku River. It is located on the east side of the road that comes down from the embankment, so if you are coming northbound and want to enter the store, you will have to go through the tunnel from the side road that goes up to the bridge.



Since it is a popular restaurant, there are many cases where the parking lot is full and there are people waiting for their number. This time I waited for about 15 minutes.



The gourmet hunt condition is ``soba small size (600 yen) or more''. The eau de sox brown Tokushima ramen topped with sweet and spicy beef is so filling that you can eat it over and over again.



◆Gourmet Hunt

Takara Ramen Awaodori Airport Branch
Takara Ramen Awaodori Airport Branch is the only Tokushima ramen shop located at Tokushima Awaodori Airport.


Arrive at Tokushima Awaodori Airport.



'Takara Ramen' is located on the second floor of the airport building.



The gourmet hunt condition is 'order over 700 yen', so I ordered 'Reiwa Red Ramen (800 yen)'.



In addition, Awa Odori Airport is

an anime jack during the fall Machi★Asobi period, and tapestries of anime and games are hung, but when I visited, it was 'Ai Jack'.



◆Gourmet Hunt

Renmaru Cafe
Renmaru Cafe is a cafe in Naruto City that focuses on lotus roots.


Arrived at the store.



The gourmet hunt condition is the kale/lotus root mix (990 yen) of ``Lotus Thin Udon'' made with lotus roots from Tokushima.



It comes with rice balls and is very filling.



◆Gourmet Hunt・

Hinode Main Store Co., Ltd.
Hinode main store, known for its ``grape manju'', is located in Anabuki-cho, Mima City.


JR Tokushima Line, Anabuki Station.



There was a special product corner inside Anabuki Station, and grape manju was placed in the center.



As soon as you exit the station, you will see the Hinode Main Store on your right. The hunt condition is '5 pieces of grape manju (594 yen)'.



◆Gourmet Hunt

Momijiya
'Momijiya' is a confectionery shop located in Tomioka-cho, Anan City.


the outside looks like this. There is a parking lot opposite the store.



``We started making rice crackers when we were founded in the early Meiji period, and have continued to adapt to the needs of the times by adding Japanese sweets, bread, and Western sweets.'' Along with the sweets, bread was on display.



The gourmet hunt condition was ``purchase over 540 yen'', so I bought warabi mochi and cream puffs. Bread is cheap, so you might be worried about what and how to buy it to meet the hunt conditions.



◆Gourmet Hunt

Awa Odori Chinese Soba Aian
Within a 10-minute walk from Hiwasa Station on the JR Mugi Line is Aian, a ramen restaurant that uses ingredients from southern Tokushima Prefecture.


Yakuo -ji Temple is the 23rd temple among the 88 sacred sites in Shikoku.



Ai-an is located on Sakuramachi Street heading east in front of it.



The gourmet hunt condition is 'order over 800 yen'. Any Chinese soba is OK.



This time I ordered 'Chinese soba (salt)' (800 yen) and 'Homemade Yakuou ginger ale' (350 yen). Although the surface of the soup is thickly covered with fat, the ramen has a refreshing salty taste and is very easy to eat.
