An original Bon Odori dance by "Bon Ambassador(R) Sato Tomohiko" and "Haruhino with DODOWAKA" has been born at Isetan Shinjuku!

This is an original Bon Odori dance with choreography by Bon Ambassador(R) Sato Tomohiko, set to the music of "Reiwa-UME no UTAGE-Ondo" by Haruhino with DODOWAKA. A 60-second version of the audio is available at https://www.dodowaka.com/isetan.


Haruhi with DODOWAKA: An artist who uses cutting-edge dance music to create the world of poetry from Japan's oldest collection of waka poetry, the Manyoshu. This song is a new type of ondo song that combines five waka poems from "Ume no Hana no Utage," the song that inspired the Reiwa era, with modern lyrics.


Sato Tomohiko: Affectionately known as "Dai-chan" due to his large physique, Sato Tomohiko is a former Bon Odorer who is now a Bon Ambassador(R) (Bon Odori Ambassador). He participates in over 100 Bon Odori festivals a year both in Japan and overseas. He spends over 300 days a year wearing yukata and Japanese clothing.
