I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

Statue of Colonel Sanders

When the Hanshin Tigers won the Central League in 1985 for the first time in 21 years, ecstatic fans famously threw a statue of Colonel Sanders into the Dotonbori River. Afterwards, the team’s prolonged championship drought came to be attributed to the so-called “Curse of the Colonel.” The statue remained missing for about 24 years, but it was finally discovered and recovered in 2009.
