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!”

Math Puzzle

[Puzzle] Do elementary schoolers solve it faster? A math riddle! [Question 48]

Math Puzzle

A video where Ryogo Matsumaru—known as a puzzle creator and active as a TV personality and author—takes on quizzes in real life.

Among insight-based riddles that don’t require prior knowledge, this one is a math-related puzzle.

It asks you to match the numbers on the right with the formulas on the left, but you won’t get there by calculation alone: you’ll count characters, form letters or words from them, and use various tools to arrive at the answer.

Even though it only uses simple arithmetic that lower-grade students can do, it’s a unique problem that can stump adults as well.

Illustration multiple choice (4 options)

[Puzzle] 1-Minute Riddle: “Illustration 4-Choice Quiz”

Illustration multiple choice (4 options)

This is a set of multiple-choice illustration puzzles that you can try casually.

For example, there’s a problem where circles are drawn above illustrations, and they seem to form letters or words.

One of the illustrations is marked with a “?”, and you have to figure out what it is.

The correct answer becomes clear once you realize that the circles correspond to “Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti,” but noticing that pattern really takes a flash of inspiration.

It’s the kind of thing that makes you marvel at how flexible children’s thinking can be.

There’s also a one-minute time limit, so it seems like everyone would stay focused while working on it.
