How to dance “Echigo-Shishi” lesson finished. It has a scene to swing sarashi. It is so eye-catching that ardent practice is necessary. However, swinging sarashi would lure Mikan-chan too much at home. Therefore, Mei-Shun decided to rent a Japanese-style room in nearby community center.

2013 Performance
StandardMei-Shun posted a short column on her last performance “Shima-no-Senzai (=Senzai, the priestess)” to the public relation brochure of Tsuchiura City. It follows partly below.
… “Shima-no-Senzai” features a woman who originated the geisha girl: she is said to be the first one who served dance entertainment to a party site. In the first half of this performance, you put on a long-hem kimono with a sash bound in maiko (=younger geisha) style. Chou-Ken, a light kimono coat is added on the kimono. Plus the ponytail wig with flower-shape accessories, a golden cap and a sword hung around the waist, it weighs approximately five kilograms …
That means a stage performance is the best exercise for a dancer.
