Anime quizzes that elementary school kids will love! A collection of questions parents and children can enjoy together

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!”

A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

In the end, she is given a test to identify her parents from among a lineup of pigs, and she successfully finds the right answer, allowing the family to return together to their own world.

Which weapons do Chiikawa and Hachiware have?

sword
sasumata (a traditional Japanese pole weapon/forked restraining tool)
nunchaku

See the answer

sasumata (a traditional Japanese pole weapon/forked restraining tool)

The correct answer is “sasimata”! Chiikawa uses a pink sasimata and Hachiware uses a blue one to fight and subdue scary enemies. By the way, Usagi uses a powder charge stick, and Rakko has a sword. They may be small and cute, but the way they fight with all their might is really cool, isn’t it?
