Meiwa Denki Grand Year-End Party

I went to the Meiwa Denki Year-End Party for the first time in a while!

As always, I was blown away by the incredible energy.

Apparently, it looks like the society of the future will be one where everyone is waving light bulbs💡 around.

I want to swing it with all my might, too!

We once asked Meiwa Denki to put on a performance of “Dr. Hige and the Nonsense★Machine” as part of CANVAS’s STEAM program, and it was one of those nights when I found myself wanting to see that legendary performance all over again.
