The show was very entertaining. Kind of a mix of traditional with modern rock. The performers engaged the audience which made it quite fun.

Absolutely exceptional - ~50 mins of high-energy, jam-packed entertainment - my arms hurt from clapping and cheering. The audience participation was loads of fun and the talent on show was incredible. I also loved that each performance group got their own shout-out and opportunity to be applauded. Would recommend this to anyone visiting Osaka, such a brilliant group of people.

As a European, the closest thing I get to a comparison is flamingo dance. I did not understand everything, but no doubt the dancer gave 100%! I was murderously entertained throughout the show. I was allowed to hit a drum - my comrade was hunted by a lion... All worth the money 😁
Tusind tak for din fantastiske anmeldelse! Vi elsker din unikke sammenligning 😄 Det glæder os, at du havde det så sjovt hele vejen igennem, og at både trommeoplevelsen og “løven” blev mindeværdige! Håber vi ses igen i Osaka!
Loved this show. Highly energetic and the performance was excellent. Great audience interaction. Really appreciated thevtraditional and modern fusion. Shops downstairs were very engaging with free photos opportunity with props. The harbour shops beside the cultural centre were great to walk through and have something to eat

Wow.. this show was unique in its own right. The dancers were incredible. The vibes were ‘vibing’, and each performer was so talented. The performers did a great job in getting the audience involved! The music was definitely geared towards westerners, but with a Japanese twist! We all got a chance to have a picture with the performers at the end which was lovely. A definite ‘Must-Do’ when visiting the area
