Posted in: Harvest Festival in Tochigi a perfect weekend getaway See in context
I went to this in 2007 or 2008 and it was fantastic! Much recommended. Take some warm clothes though. Be prepared to wait in line for the washroom too.
It's a great opportunity for mentally challenged people to socialize and feel a sense of purpose and accomplishment.

While I enjoy watching shows where they show cooking in detail, I really disliked the constant "oishiiii" and "umaaaaaaaaaaai" type segments. Sometimes they don't even show the food prep, just the tarento eating it and having a face-gasm.
I'm also glad that I'm not the only one to notice the jiggly closeup shots.
