Arrived in front of Tokushima Station. Until now, ``Petit★Asobi'' has been held mainly at

Tokushima City's Higashishinmachi shopping district , just like ``Machi★Asobi'', but this time it will be held at Asty Tokushima (Tokushima Prefectural Industrial Tourism Exchange Center) . There is a parking lot, but since we were asked to visit by public transportation, we decided to go by bus.

From bus stop number 3 in front of Tokushima Station, take the Nanbu Loop or the Yamashiro-cho direction and aim for ``Bunri University''.

The diamond looks like this, and you can reach it at a pace of about one every 30 minutes.

We arrived at Asti Tokushima in about 15 minutes by bus and 5 minutes on foot from Bunri University bus stop. There are 5 kitchen cars in front of the building.

A balloon gate was installed at the entrance. Please note that the door on the other side of the balloon will not open, so enter from the left and right.

The aisles are wide because the hall can accommodate 5,000 people. There was also a shop at the back of the aisle.

On the stage at the front of the multipurpose hall, there was a photo session of the local soccer team

, Tokushima Vortis Volta -kun, and a photo shoot of the local soccer team, Tokushima Vortis Volta-kun. ” Stellar-chan photo session, “ Puyo Puyo ” exhibition match, etc. will be held.

A numbered ticket is required for each photo session.

The distance from the second floor of the venue to the stage is like this.

You can eat and drink as you like, so you can watch the stage while having a leisurely meal.

A scene from the 'They became extinct for a reason' stamp rally that was being held at the venue. A stamp pad is placed next to the extinct creatures panel.

“They became extinct for a reason.” Panel exhibition.

Stellar-chan, who appeared at the photo session, was modeled after

a Stellar sea cow .

Carnivorous dinosaur models on display at the Katsuura Town Local Materials Exhibition Room.

This model was created in 2019 when a fossilized tooth of a carnivorous dinosaur (theropod) was found in Katsuura Town, so we created a full-sized skeleton using closely related species as a reference so that you can get a feel for the actual size. thing. The bone data was created on a PC, outputted with a 3D printer, and assembled using steel frames, etc. It took two months to create the data and five months to print.

Several fossils have been found in Katsuura Town, including the first dinosaur fossil in Shikoku, an ornithopod (iguanodont) tooth fossil, found in 1994.

Participating in the 'Puyo Puyo' exhibition match will be 'Ehime's Arles'

Kurousa, whose purpose in life is Puyo Puyo and cosplay. After a basic rules course, we faced off against players who had obtained numbered tickets.

Kurousa also supported the ``Let's make Puyo Puyo! Puyo Puyo programming course''.

The e-motorsports experience at

the Department of Automotive Engineering at Tokushima Institute of Technology was only 3 minutes long, but the waiting time was up to over 2 hours.

There was also a panel for the DMV (Dual Mode Vehicle) of the Asa Kaigan Railway, which runs between Kaiyo Town in southern Tokushima Prefecture and Toyo Town in Kochi Prefecture. DMV paper crafts were also distributed to the first 100 people.

I actually visited the DMV and reported on it in the article below.

I saw the world's first DMV that can run on both tracks and roads on the Asa Kaigan Railway - GIGAZINE

In the Tokushima Prefecture PR zone, the RPG '

TSURUGI RPG ' set in ' Iya no Kazurabashi ' and Tsurugi Town was promoted.

Since Tokushima Prefecture is a member of the Kansai Regional Union, there was also a PR space for

the 2025 Japan International Expo (Osaka/Kansai Expo) .

'Let's come, Expo. Let's go, Tokushima.'

Tokushima Prefecture is planning to set up an exhibition area inside the Kansai Regional Union pavilion.

It looks like the exhibition will focus on Awa indigo.

In addition, ``The Very Hungry Caterpillar Cultivation Workshop'' and ``Tamiya Mini 4WD Workshop'' were also held, but the numbered tickets required to participate in both were gone in less than an hour after the venue opened at 10am. . On the other hand, ``Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends Merry Fuwa Fuwa,'' which does not require a numbered ticket, always attracted children.

In addition, next to Asti and Kushima is the Tokushima office of a call center company called Telecommedia, and an illustration of the Machi★Asobi motif was wrapped on the glass surface.
