This year's 8th exhibition is held every year by the "Sakurafu Calligraphy Class" (Fujisaki Town), which is represented by Sakurafuze Miura of the Sakurafuu Branch of the Japan Education Calligraphy Association.

Last year, when the killer technique that appeared in the manga “Hokuto no Ken” was exhibited, the manga artist Tetsuo Hara contacted him and the blog was also introduced on the official blog.

This year's theme is "muscle", "entertainer's name", "obfuscated kanji", "aojiru", "Tsugaru dialect", and "thousand characters".

Mr. Miura says, "Since last year, we have considered the theme by incorporating the opinions of parents and others." Regarding the exhibition plan this time, "It was difficult to finish the work because the flu was among the children."

He said that he let the muscles write down the names they looked up on the internet. "I don't know well what muscles the children wrote, though," he said. When the children brought the name of the entertainer back home as homework, "it seemed to be biased to a specific genre, but I adopted all of them as is," says Miura.

"While setting up the work, I could hear people laughing when they said, "What's this? The venue is the passage connecting the parking lot and the store. It's just a place to pass, but if it becomes a spot where laughter can spill," he said with a smile. show.
