Mischievousya Stage Show in Hatago COEDOYA

Tonight, a very strange mysticism tavern will open at the Kawagoe Inn Koedoya.

The skills shine in street performances, the great tricks are like illusions, and the sense of unity will make you sweat! The story is told by a monster storyteller, and the dance is a seductive pole dance! Everyone will be fascinated! Monsters run rampant, and welcome to a space where non-human monsters gather. For humans, it may be too stimulating and they may lose their soul.

Be sure to check out the yokai stage show "Fascinated Hut," which provides an extraordinary and bizarre space!
