  4. I tried riding the modern monster train created by the collaboration between Izukyu and Kutsudaru

I tried riding the modern monster train created by the collaboration between Izukyu and Kutsudaru

I went to Izu Shimoda!
Yes, I'm in complete off mode.
This time I will be giving a trip report.
Completely forgetting about work and monsters...
Let's enjoy the underwater aquarium and the ocean, yay!
I set off in a good mood, but a series of bad luck happened.
Half of it is just a complaint.
This time, I was going to the beach, so I was very strict about the weather and temperature.
I am a super sunny guy who always thinks it will be sunny when I travel, but
This trip is unusual.rainAnd the temperature is below 20 degrees.
It's getting chilly and autumn is coming... no, I,I didn't pray to the kappa for rain.
Besides, it's still August, so the water temperature should be fine, right?
I went to the beach. Then I took off my child's clothes.
I just forced it in. Yes.
Here is what it looks like.

Failure! ! ! !
It's cold What is this It's cold!
It worked immediately. It's impossible.
Even Umibozu was surprisedIt's so cold.
Looking closely, I noticed there was no one around. No beachgoers.
I wonder why. Maybe it's something you can't swim in?
I was curious and looked it up after returning to the inn, and yes, I see.
The beach season is over!!!
Of course the local surfers were swimming with gusto.
There are no regular customers. No one. No one.
Considering the temperature, I wasn't planning on going in and I hadn't even prepared anything, so I didn't even have a towel.
My daughter's lips turned purple and she started shaking violently..
I, I didn't mean it like this...
And so, my shallow dream of enjoying the summer with my family came to an end.
It crumbled so easily. Complete defeat.
Well, it was such a depressing journey home,
It was the yokai that healed mewas its existence.
I boarded the Izukyu train from Izu Kogen, departing at 4:28pm, and what a surprise!
Kutsudaru. A modern monster train in collaboration with IzukyuIsn't it right?

I wasn't aiming for this so I'm happy!
Apparently, Izukyu recently collaborated with Kutsudaru to hold a monster stamp rally.
(Actually, until August 31st!)
As someone who creates stamp rally-type apps that use location information, this is a very exciting development for me.
Why didn't they call out to me?! If this is a campaign to attract customers,
This app is perfect!
A digression
Well, I was so excited that I got on.
There are monster panels everywhere inside the train.
A parade of monsters based on modern, "Ah, that's so true" topics!
The lady at the mosquito safety booth who makes you lose sight of the mosquito for a moment
The bookshelves are packed so tightly together that when you take one book out, the whole bunch fall out.
The group is full of cute yokai that will make you go "Pfft!" (lol).
Basically, it's the same as Yokai Watch, although the designs are different.
It followed the trend (perhaps Yokai Watch followed the trend of Kutsudaru?)
They were modern-day monsters. Just by coming into contact with these monsters, I was already
Off mode has long since been blown away.
As usual, I fell into my usual yokai love mode.
Come to think of it, on the train ride there I tried out the Yokai Mind Map for my child.
I still wasn't able to turn off yokai mode at all.
By the way, this "Tired" However, the original name was "The socks become loose."
In fact, its history is older than that of Yo-kai Watch.
The series began serialization in Kodansha's Morning magazine in 2007.
Then, this year, 2014, it was decided that it would be made into an anime and would begin airing on NHK's Educational TV.
Could it be that the recent yokai boom has caused a resurgence in popularity?
Following Bandai, NHK and railway companies are turning into monsters one after another... We can't let this continue.
The world is rapidly being invaded by monsters.
Finally, please listen to this sad blues song by a taxi driver who once helped me.
The peak tourist season ended last week. All that's left is to take my grandparents to and from the hospital.
I do that about 10 times a day, and that's it. I've been doing the same thing for years.
Unless tourists come... Oh, here? Um, yes. It's 1,800 yen.
Thanks so much.

(Tears) I want to use my yokai powers to help somehow!
Even if I can't go into the ocean
You can still enjoy the sunset by the sea, and the seafood is delicious (especially the boiled alfonsino: photo included).

There are hot springs and lots of other things to enjoy.
Plus, prices drop dramatically in the off-season.
Maybe now is the time to try it? This is it!
Let's go NIGHT!
