[School Culture Festival] Ranking of Popular Attractions (41–50)

This is a curious video that uses reverse playback.

You can easily create effects that look like superpowers—like a drawing appearing as you ‘erase’ a blackboard, or pulling a ball toward your hand—which is part of the fun.

If you pay attention to subtle, incidental movements like changes in facial expression that aren’t the main action, you can make the video feel more natural.

Even simple actions take on a mysterious vibe when reversed, so choosing which actions to use is important.

When it comes to stage performances at a school festival, you can’t leave out comedy.

Show off your sense of humor to everyone around you.

It’s fine—and easy to understand—to adapt popular manzai or sketch routines, but creating your own original material would be ideal.

Since you’ll be performing at the festival, it might also be interesting to include school-related events that the audience can relate to.

Rather than going for something complicated, it’s important to focus on making it easy to understand.

An aquarium without water

An idea for a waterless aquarium where you can take your time viewing the exhibits and relax.

In this concept, you display craft works with a fish theme to create an aquarium-like atmosphere.

Showcasing rare fish you don’t usually see or large fish would likely make it more exciting.

In addition to simply displaying items, it would be great to set up a corner where visitors can learn about fish or turn that information into a quiz.

Another appealing aspect is that visitors can enjoy a variety of craft pieces.

Darts is a game where you throw arrows at a target and compete for points.

The closer you get to the center, the higher your score.

The rules are simple yet deep, making you want to try again and again.

For a school festival, anyone can join casually if you prepare a handmade board using items like interlocking mats and a safe dart set.

Even just taking a few steps back to take aim naturally tenses your body and creates a sense of excitement.

The moment a dart hits the target, the spectators can clap and get excited too.

If you set up rules with prizes for different score tiers, it lowers the barrier to entry.

The feeling of accomplishment when you hit the mark and the cheers from friends create a fun atmosphere throughout the classroom.

My heart wants to scream.54rank/position

My heart wants to scream.

A youth fantasy anime by the staff of “Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day.” It centers on Jun Naruse, a high school girl who struggles to communicate due to trauma from a curse cast by an egg fairy, and depicts her growth alongside other high school students tackling a musical.

With its moving story, it seems perfectly suited for a high school cultural festival.

It’s approachable as an anime and its live-action adaptation was also a hit.

As you prepare for the event, it’s likely to deepen the bonds among classmates.

The cathartic cry from the heart at the climax will surely become a lifelong memory.

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time55rank/position

It’s an immortal masterpiece that has inspired numerous remakes.

If you can capture a page of youthful days and portray unreality that feels real, thunderous applause is guaranteed! It’s hard to immerse yourself in the story, but that’s precisely what makes it such a rewarding theme.

Pork-Wrapped Rice Ball

How about meat-wrapped rice balls made with a takoyaki maker—fun to make and perfect for a school festival menu? Using a takoyaki maker, which is trending on TikTok, makes cooking easy and gives it a festive vibe! First, roll the rice into balls small enough to fit in the takoyaki molds; using plastic wrap lets you shape them without getting your hands messy.

Wrap thinly sliced pork (shabu-shabu style) around the rice balls and place them into the takoyaki maker.

Once one side is browned, flip them with a bamboo skewer, then finish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, and drizzle with yakiniku sauce—that’s it! When serving at the festival, remind people to be careful because they’re hot.
