Deputy Editor of RAG MUSIC. JFC-certified fact-checker. I’m Sasashina, a mom currently raising an elementary schooler and a preschooler. During my student years at Kyoto College of Science and Technology, I studied a wide range of fields including sound, lighting, and video technology, building a foundation in comprehensive stage production and creative expression. After graduation, I joined a music production company, where I still work, consistently building experience in production and engaging in a variety of music-centered tasks. Currently, I mainly handle articles for children, drawing on what I’ve learned about parenting and what I feel and discover through daily interactions with my kids. I hope my work can be of help to you, even in a small way!

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!”

This is a way to play on LINE that makes the chat screen feel like a spy communications base.

You create ciphers according to specific rules, and the other members decode them.

It can also be a great way to express your feelings to someone you like by making love-related symbols using hiragana, the alphabet, or numbers.

You can vary the difficulty—like removing vowels, reading text backwards, or shifting letters a set number of positions in the gojūon—so it stays fresh and allows for lots of variations.

Once someone deciphers the message, they switch places with the next questioner, keeping the game going and making the chat irresistibly engaging.

It’s an intellectual game that flexibly trains your mind.

A Story That Never Fails (to Get Laughs)

My friend's ‘can’t-fail’ story was way too funny lol

A Story That Never Fails (to Get Laughs)

When you’ve run out of games to play, it’s also fun to take turns sharing can’t-fail stories.

Try telling amusing anecdotes from everyday life.

When sharing, voice or video calls can convey the atmosphere better than chat.

You can also switch it up by sharing “scary stories” or “things that really ticked you off.” This works perfectly during an online meal, too.

And if you want to randomly choose the next speaker like on TV shows, the lottery-style Amida-kuji feature comes in handy.

It’s an interactive, conversational game you can casually enjoy in a LINE chat.

You take turns asking and answering questions about each other—like blood type, first impressions, favorite foods, or how you’d spend your ideal day off.

It’s great not only for friends but also for getting closer to someone you’re interested in.

Preparing a list of questions in advance helps things go smoothly, and unexpected answers often liven up the conversation, making it easy to branch into new topics.

The relaxed vibe lets you discover new sides of the other person, so it’s useful not just for killing time but also for deepening relationships.

If you want to learn more about each other, this is an easy game to try.

The ultimate choice between two options

Which side are you on: Takenoko no Sato or Kinoko no Yama?Which is right and left?Two-choice game Ultimate choice between two options Shutter Company
♪ Original song – The overly kind company president and Japan’s most free-spirited employee – A day in the life of a shutter repairman

An ultimate either-or game that unexpectedly heats up as a time-killer on LINE.

Because the questions themselves can contain deep themes, the biggest appeal is how they reveal the other person’s values and view of life.

There’s no right answer as a game; whichever you choose, the conversation naturally expands as you discuss your reasons.

Beyond classic prompts, if you create your own unique questions for each other, you’ll also enjoy discovering the respondent’s personality and values.

It’s a pastime you can tackle across a wide range of themes—romance, hobbies, and even philosophical questions.
