Running on from 18:00 to 21:00, this fair was actually very attractive and many people came to it.
|
People were really interested in what they could see and we had no break during this whole event.
|
4 members of the ASA were here to answer to questions and explain the rules to visitors.

Our presentation slides kept the interest of people.
|
The Shogi sets for children were very useful as people were sometimes a bit "afraid" when seeing the pieces with kanjis.
|
even young people learned the rules and wanted to try the game!
